Hi, Thanks to a few matrix-transformaties, I have elements like ' 1/2*cos(t)-1/2*3^(1/2)*sin(t) ' which also equals cos(t+1/3*pi) (--> thx to: cos(pi/3) = 1/2 and sin(pi/3) = sqrt(3)/2). But I don't find any way to make maple realize that it can be simplified that way. Can he make such simplifications? thx in advance
