 sin 70° cos 50° + sin 260° cos 280° =?

$$\:\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{70}°\:\mathrm{cos}\:\mathrm{50}°\:+\:\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{260}°\:\mathrm{cos}\:\mathrm{280}°\:=? \\ $$

⇔sin 70° cos 50°+(−cos 10°)(sin 10°)=    (1/2)(sin 120°+sin 20°)−(1/2)sin 20°=    (1/2)×(1/2)(√3) = ((√3)/4)

$$\Leftrightarrow\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{70}°\:\mathrm{cos}\:\mathrm{50}°+\left(−\mathrm{cos}\:\mathrm{10}°\right)\left(\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{10}°\right)= \\ $$$$\:\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\left(\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{120}°+\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{20}°\right)−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{20}°= \\ $$$$\:\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}\:=\:\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$
