 FORMULA FOR REFERENCE

sin( A ± B) = sin A cos B± cos A sin B A+ B A− B

sin A + sin B = 2 sin cos
cos( A ± B) = cos A cos B  sin A sin B 2 2
A+ B A− B
tan A ± tan B sin A − sin B = 2 cos sin
tan( A ± B) = 2 2
1  tan A tan B
A+ B A− B
2 sin A cos B = sin( A + B) + sin( A − B) cos A + cos B = 2 cos cos
2 2
2 cos A cos B = cos( A + B) + cos( A − B)
A+ B A− B
2 sin A sin B = cos( A − B) − cos( A + B) cos A − cos B = −2 sin sin
