Question: RE: Trogonomatric identity

Hello all, 

Would you allow me to ask this question?

Is there a way to make the expression 'expression1', given below, to expression 'expression3'?

expression1 := -cos(theta)/2 + sin(theta)*sqrt(3)/2;

-(1/2)*cos(theta)+(1/2)*sin(theta)*3^(1/2)

expression2 := expand(cos(theta-2/3*Pi));

-(1/2)*cos(theta)+(1/2)*sin(theta)*3^(1/2)

is(expression1 = expression2);

true

(3)

expression3 := cos(theta-2/3*Pi);

-cos(theta+(1/3)*Pi)
