    Trigonometric identities (p A28–A31)

    1 List of identities
    1.1 Relation sin and cos:
    sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1

    1.2 Relation tan and sec:


    sec2 θ = 1 + tan2 θ
    Similarly, we have
    csc2 θ = 1 + cot2 θ

    1.3 Parity
    The sin function is odd i.e

    sin(−θ) = − sin θ.

    The cos function is even i.e

    cos(−θ) = cos θ.

    1.4 Periodicity
    The functions sin and cos are periodic with period 2π, in particular we have

    sin(θ + 2π) = sin θ

    and
    cos(θ + 2π) = cos θ

    2 Addition and subtraction formulae


    2.1 Addition formulae
    sin(x + y) = sin x cos y + cos x sin y,

    cos(x + y) = cos x cos y − sin x sin y


    and
    tan x + tan y
    tan(x + y) =
    1 − tan x tan y

    1
    2.2 Subtraction formulae
    sin(x − y) = sin x cos y − cos x sin y,

    cos(x − y) = cos x cos y + sin x sin y


    and
    tan x − tan y
    tan(x − y) =
    1 + tan x tan y

    2.3 Double-angle
    sin(2x) = 2 sin x cos x
    and

    cos(2x) = cos2 x − sin2 x


    = 2 cos2 x − 1
    = 1 − 2 sin2 x

    2.4 Half-angle
    1 − cos(2x)
    sin2 x =
    2
    and
    1 + cos(2x)
    cos2 x =
    2

    3 Product formulae
    1 
    sin x cos y = sin(x + y) + sin(x − y)
    2
    1 
    cos x cos y = cos(x + y) + cos(x − y)
    2

    sin x sin y = cos(x − y) − cos(x + y)
