What is the product form of (\sin x+\sin 3x)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (2\sin 2x\cos x)

Direct answer: option A, \(2\sin 2x\cos x\). Use the sum-to-product identity \(\sin A+\sin B=2\sin\left((A+B)/2\right)\cos\left((A-B)/2\right)\). Put \(A=x\) and \(B=3x\). Then \((A+B)/2=(x+3x)/2=2x\), while \((A-B)/2=(x-3x)/2=-x\). Since \(\cos(-x)=\cos x\), the result is \(2\sin 2x\cos x\). Option A is correct. Option B, \(2\cos 2x\sin x\), corresponds to a different arrangement and is not generally equal to the given sum. Option C, \(2\sin x\cos 3x\), does not follow the sum-to-product formula and is generally different. Option D, \(2\cos x\sin 3x\), is also not the correct transformation. A quick check is to take a small convenient value such as \(x=30^\circ\); the correct expression matches the original sum. Memory cue: for sine plus sine, use sine of the average angle times cosine of half the difference.
