Solution
Given cos(4π+α)=32, let's break down the solution step by step:
1. Expanding the cosine of a sum formula: We know that cos(θ+ϕ)=cosθ⋅cosϕ−sinθ⋅sinϕ. Applying this to our given equation, we have: cos(4π+α)=cos(4π)cos(α)−sin(4π)sin(α) Since cos(4π)=sin(4π)=22, we substitute these values into the equation: 32=22cos(α)−22sin(α)
2. Simplifying the equation: Multiplying both sides by 2 to get rid of the square root gives us: 32=cos(α)−sin(α)
3. **Using the identity for sin(2α)**: We know that sin(2α)=2sin(α)cos(α). To find sin(2α), we need to manipulate our equation. Adding sin2(α)+cos2(α)=1 to both sides of our equation, we get: 1+94=1+2sin(α)cos(α) 1−sin(2α)=94 sin(2α)=95
4. Finding the denominator: The denominator of our target expression is 1−sin(α)+cos(α). From our earlier step, we know that cos(α)−sin(α)=32. Adding 1 to both sides, we get: 1+32=1−sin(α)+cos(α)
5. Calculating the final expression: Substituting the values we found into the target expression, we get: 1−sin(α)+cos(α)sin(2α)=1+3295 =3595 =31
Therefore, the answer is: 31.
