9 8 sin 50
= csc 50 9 sin 2 50 8 sin 3 50
( using  sin 2 x = 1 cos x )
= csc 50 9 sin 2 50 8 sin 50 ( 1 cos 2 50 )
= csc 50 9 sin 2 50 8 sin 50 + 8 sin 50 cos 2 50
( using  2 sin x cos x = sin 2 x )
= csc 50 9 sin 2 50 8 sin 50 + 4 sin 100 cos 50
( using  2 sin x cos y = sin ( x + y ) sin ( x y ) )
= csc 50 9 sin 2 50 8 sin 50 + 2 ( sin 150 + sin 50 )
= csc 50 9 sin 2 50 6 sin 50 + 2 sin 150
( using  sin 150 = sin 30 = 1 2 )
= csc 50 9 sin 2 50 6 sin 50 + 1
= csc 50 ( 3 sin 50 1 ) 2
(Taking the positive root.)
= csc 50 ( 3 sin 50 1 )
= 3 csc 50
So a=3 and b=−1
