Calculate the sum of sin(45-x)+sin(45+x). the result is 0?

We'll apply the sine function to the sum and the
difference of angles 45 and x:


sin (a-b) = sin a*cos b -
sin b*cos a


sin (a+b) = sin a*cos b + sin b*cos
a


We'll put a = 45 and b =
x.


sin (45+x) = sin 45*cos x + sin x*cos
45


sin (45+x) = sqrt2*cos x/2 + sqrt2*sin x/2
(1)


sin (45-x) = sin 45*cos x - sin x*cos
45


sin (45-x) = sqrt2*cos x/2 - sqrt2*sin x/2
(2)


Now, we'll substitute (1) and (2) in the sum to be
calculated:


 sin(45+x) + sin(45-x) = sqrt2*cos x/2 +
sqrt2*sin x/2 + sqrt2*cos x/2 - sqrt2*sin x/2


We'll combine
and eliminate like terms:


 sin(45+x) + sin(45-x) =
2*sqrt2*cos x/2


We'll simplify and we'll
get:


 sin(45+x) + sin(45-x) =
sqrt2*cosx


We can notice that the result of
the sum is not zero, but sqrt2*cosx.
