Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This expression can be simplified using trigonometric identities. Factor out $\sin \theta \cos \theta$, yielding $\sin \theta \cos \theta (\cos^2 \theta + \sin^2 \theta)$. Since $\cos^2 \theta + \sin^2 \theta = 1$, it simplifies to $\sin \theta \cos \theta$, which is $\frac{1}{2} \sin(2\theta)$ by the double angle formula for sine.
