Answer

$\sin$$^{2}$ 36$^{\circ}$ + $\cos$$^{2}$ 36$^{\circ}$ $\approx$ 1

Work Step by Step

$\sin$$^{2}$ 36$^{\circ}$ + $\cos$$^{2}$ 36$^{\circ}$ Utilizing a calculator: $\sin$$^{2}$ 36$^{\circ}$ + $\cos$$^{2}$ 36$^{\circ}$ $\approx$ 0.34549150 + 0.65450849 $\sin$$^{2}$ 36$^{\circ}$ + $\cos$$^{2}$ 36$^{\circ}$ $\approx$ 0.99999999 $\sin$$^{2}$ 36$^{\circ}$ + $\cos$$^{2}$ 36$^{\circ}$ $\approx$ 1 Therefore: $\sin$$^{2}$ 36$^{\circ}$ + $\cos$$^{2}$ 36$^{\circ}$ $\approx$ 1
