Learn them:acosθ + bsinθ = rsin(θ+α) or rsin(θ-α) or rcos(θ+α) or rcos(θ-α)
How do I know when to use what? :O
acosθ + bsinθ = rcos(θ-α)
acosθ - bsinθ = rcos(θ+α)
asinθ + bcosθ = rsin(θ+α)
asinθ - bcosθ = rsin(θ-α)
When cos is first it's rcos and the signs in brackets are opposite to LHS
When sin is first it's rsin and the signs in brackets are same as LHS
