Why are they called double angle identities?

• They involve doubling the angle in trigonometric functions.

• They are used twice in every equation.

• They double the result of the function.

• They are twice as complex as other identities.

What is the formula for sine of double angle?

• sin(2θ) = sin²θ + cos²θ

• sin(2θ) = 2sin²θ

• sin(2θ) = 2sinθcosθ
