Sine and Cosine Compound Angle Identities
AHL 3.10
sin(A±B) cos(A±B)=sinAcosB±cosAsinB📖 =cosAcosB∓sinAsinB📖
1+tan²θ=sec²θ
AHL 3.9
If we take the identity sin2θ+cos2θ=1 and divide through by cos2θ we find
1+tan2θ=sec2θ📖
1+cot²θ=cosec²θ
AHL 3.9
If we take the identity sin2θ+cos2θ=1 and divide through by sin2θ we find
1+cot2θ=cosec2θ📖
Tan Double Angle Identity
AHL 3.10
The double angle identity for tan states that
tan2θ=1−tan2θ2tanθ📖
Tan Compound Angle Identity
AHL 3.10
