cos x+(√3)sin x  =2((1/2)cos x+((√3)/2)sin x)  =2(sin 30cos x+cos 30sin x)  =2sin (x+30)

$$\mathrm{cos}\:{x}+\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}\mathrm{sin}\:{x} \\ $$$$=\mathrm{2}\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{cos}\:{x}+\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{sin}\:{x}\right) \\ $$$$=\mathrm{2}\left(\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{30cos}\:{x}+\mathrm{cos}\:\mathrm{30sin}\:{x}\right) \\ $$$$=\mathrm{2sin}\:\left({x}+\mathrm{30}\right) \\ $$
