HP Prime Android and PC emulator give wrong answer for simplify((sin(3*x)+sin(7*x))/sin(5*x)
03-17-2019 08:37 AM

The simplify((sin(3*x)+sin(7*x))/sin(5*x)) answers given by both PC Prime enulator and Prime Pro version on Android give wrong answer of
2*COS(2*x) instead of 4*(cos(x))^2-2. Both the PC and Andriod verion has Software version: 2.1.14181.
Does this happen to an actual Prime handheld version? I'm testing the Emulator version before deciding to buy the physical one.

What makes you think that is an incorrect result? 😄

Although I work for the HP calculator group as a head developer of the HP Prime, the views and opinions I post here are my own.

Thanks, Tim for your reply.
The reason was that one of the documents I came across called "Symbolic computation and Mathematics with
the calculator HP Prime. Shows that simplify((sin(3*x)+sin(7*x))/sin(5*x))
We get:
4*(cos(x))^2-2 and When I checked on GeoGebra Cas Program it also showed the same answer.
Thanks once again for your reply.
