Oplossing - Solution

1ste manier :
cos 15°.cos 30°.cos 75° = sin 15°.cos 15°.cos 30°
= ½.(2 sin 15°.cos 15°).cos 30° = ½.sin 30°.cos 30° = ¼.2. sin 30°.cos 30°
= ¼ .sin60° = \(\frac 14.\frac {\sqrt3} {2}=... \)
2de manier : (gebruik makend van één van de 4 formules van SIMPSON)
cos 15°.cos 30°.cos 75° = ½.cos30°(2cos 15°.cos 75°)
= ½.cos 30°[cos(15° − 75°) + cos(15° + 75°)]
= ½.cos 30°.[cos(− 60°) + cos 90°]
= ½.cos 30°. ½= ¼ cos 30° = \(\frac14.\frac {\sqrt3} {2}=... \)
