6. (i) Without using a calculator, find the exact value of $$\left( \sin 22.5 ^ { \circ } + \cos 22.5 ^ { \circ } \right) ^ { 2 }$$ You must show each stage of your working.
(ii) (a) Show that \(\cos 2 \theta + \sin \theta = 1\) may be written in the form $$k \sin ^ { 2 } \theta - \sin \theta = 0 , \text { stating the value of } k$$ (b) Hence solve, for \(0 \leqslant \theta < 360 ^ { \circ }\), the equation $$\cos 2 \theta + \sin \theta = 1$$
