Lmao that's a heavy ass British accent.
easier proof: sum-to-product formula, making use of sinA - sinB = 2sin(A-B /2)cos(A+B /2) and sub A = x+h, B = x, making it (sin(h/2)cos(x + h/2)) / (h/2), directly getting cosx

Yep.
Complex definition is so elegant if extending the derivative to the complex plane and holding derivative rules true.
Bro why do you sound different?
nice video

wow so mis leading here was me thinking this would be a deep video
Using eulers formula is much easier to prove and to understand.
Final 2 limits are easily seen from Taylor series / small angle approximations, sin(h) ~ h and cos(h) ~ 1 - 0.5h^2 as h->0

correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you can use the Taylor series or small angle approximations for sin(x) here as they rely on the derivative of sin(x) being cos(x) which is circular reasoning

@@EK-bn7jz u are half right, it depends which definition u start with. For example, if u start with complex exponential definitions for sine and cosine, u can derive the Taylor series without knowing derivatives of sine and cosine. U can even start by defining sine and cosine with their Taylor Series themselves, as they are unique representations for sin and cos

Use Taylor expansion

That's circulatory The taylor series uses the derivative of the function

@@thundercraft0496 I don’t think it’s circular. If we define sin(x) as the Taylor expansion definition then it’s fine. The difficulty then is having to prove that the Taylor definition is equal to the unit circle definition.
