Step-by-step solution

Using cos⁡2A−sin⁡2B=cos⁡(A+B)cos⁡(A−B)\cos^2A - \sin^2B = \cos(A+B)\cos(A-B):
cos⁡248°−sin⁡212°=cos⁡60°cos⁡36°=12cos⁡36°\cos^2 48° - \sin^2 12° = \cos 60° \cos 36° = \frac{1}{2}\cos 36°.
Using sin⁡2A−sin⁡2B=sin⁡(A+B)sin⁡(A−B)\sin^2A - \sin^2B = \sin(A+B)\sin(A-B):
sin⁡224°−sin⁡26°=sin⁡30°sin⁡18°=12sin⁡18°\sin^2 24° - \sin^2 6° = \sin 30° \sin 18° = \frac{1}{2}\sin 18°.
Ratio =cos⁡36°sin⁡18°=(1+5)/4(5−1)/4=(1+5)24=6+254=3+52= \frac{\cos 36°}{\sin 18°} = \frac{(1+\sqrt{5})/4}{(\sqrt{5}-1)/4} = \frac{(1+\sqrt{5})^2}{4} = \frac{6+2\sqrt{5}}{4} = \frac{3+\sqrt{5}}{2}.
α=3, β=1\alpha = 3,\ \beta = 1. α+β=4\alpha + \beta = 4.
