Consider the code:
n1 := Cos[α] Sin[β]
n2 := Sin[α] Sin[β]
n3 := Cos[β]
n := {n1, n2, n3}
Norm[n]
Why the result is
Sqrt[Abs[Cos[β]]^2 + Abs[Cos[α] Sin[β]]^2 + Abs[Sin[α] Sin[β]]^2]
that is $$\sqrt{\left| \sin (\alpha ) \sin (\beta )\right| ^2+\left| \cos (\alpha ) \sin (\beta )\right| ^2+\left| \cos (\beta )\right| ^2}$$
instead of $1$?
How to compute the norm in a symbolic way simplifying some trigonometric identities?
