What is Conditional Equation?

 An equation satisfied by some numbers but not others, such as 2x =4, is called a conditional equation.

Fundamental Trigonometric
Identities

All functions, including trig functions, can be described as being even, odd, or neither. A function is odd if and only if f(-x)
= - f(x) and is symmetric with respect to the origin. A function is even if and only if f(-x) = f(x) and is symmetric to the y
axis. It is helpful to know if a function is odd or even when you are trying to simplify an expression when the variable
inside the trigonometric function is negative.
A function is  is considered an even function because the ends of the parabola both point in the same direction and the
parabola is symmetric about the y−axis.

General Addition Formulas

1. cos ( A+ B ) =cos Acos B−sin Asin B
2. cos ( A−B )=cos A cos B+ sin A sin B
3. sin ( A+ B )=sin AcosB+sin B cos A

TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS AND THEIR INVERSES
Inverse Trigonometric Functions

What is the use of inverse trigonometric functions?

 The inverse trigonometric functions sin−1 x  , cos−1 x , and  tan−1 x  , are used to find the unknown measure
of an angle of a right triangle when two side lengths are known.
A tower, 28.4 feet high, must be secured with a guy wire anchored 5 feet from the
Example: base of the tower. What angle will the guy wire make with the ground?
Solution:

A boat is docked at the end of a 10 foot pier. The boat leaves the pier and drops anchor 230 feet away 3 feet
straight out from shore (which is perpendicular to the pier). What was the bearing of the boat from a line
drawn from the end of the pier through the foot of the pier?
Solution:

The beauty of your speech performance depends on how well you write your speech.
Learning to write a speech is straightforward when you learn to write out loud.
So before start writing you need
 who are you writing your speech for? what your speech is going to be about
 what your speech is going to be about
You want to have thought through your main point and have outlined them and have sorted the supported
research
 Any equation that involves trigonometric expressions is called “Trigonometric equation”.
Tips in Solving Trigonometric Equations
1. If the equation contains only one trigonometric term, isolate that term, and solve for the variable.
2. If the equation is quadratic in form, we may use factoring, finding square roots, or the quadratic
formula.
3. Rewrite the equation to have 0 on one side , and then factor (if appropriate) the expression on the
other side.
4. If the equation contains more than one trigonometric function, try to express everything in terms of
one trigonometric function. Here identities are useful.
5. If half or multiple angles are present, express them in terms of a trigonometric expression of a
single angle, except when all angles involved have the same multiplicity wherein, in this case, retain
the angle. Half angle and double angle identities are useful in simplification.

Polar Coordinate System
 A polar coordinate system is a two-dimensional coordinate system in which the distance r from a fixed
reference point O , and an angle ϴ from a fixed reference direction determine every point P on a polar
plane. The point of origin or the reference point O is called the pole, and the horizontal reference
direction is called the polar axis.
´ and ϴ is the angle with the polar axis as
