where did the 180 go tho
btw do we need to evaluate cos(180-160) into cos20 or we just simply remove the 180

I rewrote 20 as 180 - 160, so that

cos 20 can be rewritten as

cos (180 - 160)

This is in the form cos (180 - x) = - cos x where x is 160.

So, we do not change the 180 - 160 back into 20 (because we started off from 20).
