    Inscribe a regular pentagon in a circle or radius 1, the vertexes are (1,0), (cos 72, sin 72),(cos 144, sin 144), (cos 72, - sin 72), (cos 144, - sin 144).
    The average of these coordinates will be the center of the pentagon (0,0).
    1 + 2 cos 72 + 2 cos 144 = 0
    1 + 2 cos 72 + (2 cos^2 72 - 1)= 0
    4 cos^2 72 + 2 cos 72-1 = 0
    Apply the quadratic formula
    cos 72 = -1/4 + sqrt(5) / 4

    Dear Sir,
    I really appreciated your efforts in this wonderful piece of geometry explanation. I really liked this new way of solving and obtaining the. Golden ratio...
    Sir,. I discovered that 18°*5 = 90 degrees therefore I found the value of sin18° by algebra and so I wanted to share it with you
    ..
    Let 18° =x
    2x+3x =90°
    2x= 90°- 3x
    Taking the sine on both sides,
    You obtain
    Sin(2x)= sin (90- 3x)
    2sinx cosx = cos 3x
    Sir .. after solving these equations by eliminating cos(x) from both sides and converting cos^2x into sin^2x we notice that a quadratic equation is formed. We solve it and obtain the same value as you did using this amazing mind bending geometry , I.e( (5)^0.5 - 1)/4 .

    • @jakistam1000
      @jakistam1000 7 лет назад +10

      You have to know, however, how to write cos(3x) differently. I checked that it's equal to cos^3(x) - 3sin^2(x)*cos(x), but that's not something I would know on top of my head.
      Once you know that, however, it is really nice way!

    • @jakistam1000
      @jakistam1000 7 лет назад

      Abdullah Kanee Thanks :) Yes, in my maths class in high school we didn't learn triple angles identities, and since then, I was mainly using numerical values for the angles (or sinx=x approximation ;) ). In general, sin(2x), cos(2x), as well as sin(x+y), sinx+siny etc. are probably more useful. But it's easy to forget that there are other possibilities, if you don't use them :D

    • @Vivenk88

      Here is another interesting fact. If you draw a regular Pentagon and join all the diagonals, you get a smaller Pentagon inside. The ratio of the side of the bigger Pentagon to the side of the smaller Pentagon is golden ratio^2.
      Also sine(666) = -(golden ratio)/2

    4:06, at this point you could say that the second triangle has a missing side of x^2 since the triangle was changed by a factor of x from the first one. Then at 6:03 you notice it's the same as 1-x. Then your equation becomes clear that x^2 = x-1 and get your solution

    This is equal to (1/2) * phi^(-1). The cosecant is equal to 2 * the golden ratio. In the original 36-72-72 triangle the ratio of the sides is exactly the golden ratio.
    This is not so surprising because the golden ratio is (1 + sqrt(5))/2 and all the angles of the triangle are measured in fifths of 180 degrees (for the isosceles one).

But what is also not trivial and that I believe to be even more impressive as far as I understand, major phi(golden ratio) equals 1 over minor phi(other golden ratio) and also 1 plus minor phi(other golden ratio).

    I solved it by considering the equation x^5-1=0, then disassembling the equation and using the sum rule to put the output into another equation. After solving the equation that you got you should get the cosine of 18°. Then you simply plug it into the formula cos^2(x)+sin^2(x)=1 to get the solution.

    bprp showed that sin(18) = cos(72) = 1/(2*phi). Using a 36/36/108 degrees isosceles triangle, you can do virtually the same construction to show that cos(36) = sin(54) = phi/2. (Or continue bprp's construction and drop a perpendicular to the left side of the main triangle.)
    According to Wikipedia and Wolfram, the 36/72/72 triangle is know as the "golden triangle" and the 36/36/108 is known as the "golden gnomon". These 2 triangles are referred to as Robinson triangles in the Wikipedia article on Penrose tiling.

    Yeah !!
    Blackpenredpen, are these triangles linked somehow with self-similar Penrose tiles ? They were considered long time as a simple mathematical curiosity, until they became the core of the recent discovery of pseudocrystals.

    One more way. Use a protractor, draw a triangle having 18,90,72°. Use a ruler. Measure sin 18°. By calculating the value of perpendicular upon hypotenuse.

    This just shows how hopeless is transcendental trigonometry that we are happy as kids if we can solve one particular triangle using it and the result is still convoluted...

    Fun fact, I discovered that ancient Mayan architecture used angles of 18 degrees a lot recently, because 360/20=18, and they used base 20 so you know, go figure that they would use 18 degrees a lot in their arcitecture. But could another reason for them using 18 degrees be because as we have just found, sin(18 deg)=1/(2*the golden ratio)? Is it possible that they were aware of the connection to the golden ratio all along?

    At 3:00 minutes into the video you dropped a line that made a right angle to the opposite side side of the initial isosceles triangle.
    You should have cut the opposite side with a line equal to X drawn with a compass. That would have given you an isosceles triangle. with both sides equal to X.

    So, consider a 40/70/70 triangle. Specifically, BAC = 40 degrees, ABC = ACB = 70 degrees. Set a point D on BC and draw the line BD such that BDA is 30 degrees and BDC is 40 degrees.
    The lower half is an isosceles triangle. The upper half has a 30 degree angle, allowing you to use the sine rule. Set cos(40) to be x, and remember that sin^2 + cos^2 = 1.
    In the end, I have a cubic polynomial. Is there a better way to approach this?

    Thanks for evaluating sin(18°) geometrically.Otherwise, it can be also find easily by using Trigonometry. But the question arises that how the Right Triangle 36°_72°_72° can be drawn. To construct the above triangle, "Divide a straight line segment in Medial Section".

    Sin 18° = (√5-1)/4
    A=18
    2A=36
    3A=54
    5A=90
    Sin (5A-3A) = Sin (2A)
    Now, Sin(90-x)=Cos(x)
    Cos(3A) = Sin (2A)
    Solving this real quick by using identities......
    4Cos³(A) - 3Cos(A) = 2Sin(A)Cos(A)
    4Cos²(A) - 3- 2Sin(A) = 0
    4-4Sin²(A) - 3 - 2Sin(A) =0
    Sin(A) = x
    Solve Quadratic
    Sin(A) = (√5-1)/4
    So, Sin(18°) = (√5-1)/4

  • @aryanjha2172
    @aryanjha2172 5 лет назад

    Let A = 18°
    Therefore, 5A = 90°
    ⇒ 2A + 3A = 90˚
    ⇒ 2θ = 90˚ - 3A
    Taking sine on both sides, we get
    sin 2A = sin (90˚ - 3A) = cos 3A
    ⇒ 2 sin A cos A = 4 cos^3 A - 3 cos A
    ⇒ 2 sin A cos A - 4 cos^3A + 3 cos A = 0
    ⇒ cos A (2 sin A - 4 cos^2 A + 3) = 0
    Dividing both sides by cos A = cos 18˚ ≠ 0, we get
    ⇒ 2 sin θ - 4 (1 - sin^2 A) + 3 = 0
    ⇒ 4 sin^2 A + 2 sin A - 1 = 0, which is a quadratic in form of sinA
    Solve for A
    Since sin18 lies in 1st quadrant. Take positive value.
