𝜋
Function changes in case of odd multiple of 2 ie
sin changes to cos, tan to cot and sec to cosec.

TWO SPECIAL FORMULAE :

COMBINATION FORMULAE:
➢ 1 +Cos2x = 2𝑐𝑜𝑠 2 𝑥
➢ Sin(x+y) = sinx.cosy +cosx.siny ➢ 1 - Cos2x = 2𝑠𝑖𝑛2 𝑥
➢ Sin(x-y) = sinx.cosy - cosx.siny
➢ Cos(x+y) = cosx.cosy – sinx.siny
➢ Cos(x-y) = cosx.cosy + sinx.siny SIN/COS INTO TAN :
𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑥 + 𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑦
➢ Tan(x+y) = 1 − 𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑥.𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑦
2𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑥
𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑥 − 𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑦 ➢ Sin2x = 1+𝑡𝑎𝑛2 𝑥
➢ Tan(x-y) = 1 + 𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑥.𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑦
1−𝑡𝑎𝑛2 𝑥

PRODUCT FORMULAE:
SOME SPECIAL RESULTS :
➢ 2SinxCosy = sin(x+y) +sin(x-y)
➢ 2CosxSiny = sin(x+y) – sin(x-y) ➢ Sin(x+y).Sin(x-y) = 𝑆𝑖𝑛2 𝑥 − 𝑆𝑖𝑛2 𝑦
➢ 2CosxCosy = Cos(x+y) + Cos(x-y) ➢ Cos(x+y).Cos(x-y) = 𝐶𝑜𝑠 2 𝑥 − 𝑆𝑖𝑛2 𝑦
➢ 2SinxSiny = Cos(x-y) - Cos(x+y) tan2 𝑥−tan2 𝑦
