1. Problem Description

The problem asks to simplify the trigonometric expression:
sin(π4)2tan(π4)sin(π6)\frac{sin(\frac{\pi}{4}) - 2tan(\frac{\pi}{4})}{sin(\frac{\pi}{6})}

2. Solution Steps

First, we need to evaluate each trigonometric function.
sin(π4)=22sin(\frac{\pi}{4}) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}
tan(π4)=1tan(\frac{\pi}{4}) = 1
sin(π6)=12sin(\frac{\pi}{6}) = \frac{1}{2}
Now, substitute these values into the original expression:
sin(π4)2tan(π4)sin(π6)=222(1)12\frac{sin(\frac{\pi}{4}) - 2tan(\frac{\pi}{4})}{sin(\frac{\pi}{6})} = \frac{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} - 2(1)}{\frac{1}{2}}
Simplify the numerator:
222=2242=242\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} - 2 = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} - \frac{4}{2} = \frac{\sqrt{2} - 4}{2}
Now, divide by 12\frac{1}{2}, which is equivalent to multiplying by 2:
24212=242×2=24\frac{\frac{\sqrt{2} - 4}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{\sqrt{2} - 4}{2} \times 2 = \sqrt{2} - 4

3. Final Answer

24\sqrt{2} - 4
