First, let's calculate cos(67.5) and sin(67.5) using a calculator:
cos(67.5) ≈ 0.362sin(67.5) ≈ 0.932
Now, we can substitute these values into the expression:
(cos^2(67.5) - sin^2(67.5)) - sin^2(225)= (0.362^2 - 0.932^2) - 1= (0.131044 - 0.868624) - 1= -0.73758 - 1= -1.73758
Therefore, the final result is approximately -1.73758.
