sin 2 + cos2 = 1 1 + tan 2 = sec2 1 + cot 2 = csc2

sin( ) = sin cos( ) = cos tan( ) = tan

sin ( + ) = sin cos + cos sin sin ( ) = sin cos cos sin
cos ( + ) = cos cos sin sin cos ( ) = cos cos + sin sin
tan + tan tan tan
tan ( + ) = tan ( ) =
1 tan tan 1 + tan tan

Three Steps to solve sin n
2
Step I: First check that n is even or odd
Step II: If n is even then the answer will be in sin and if the n is odd then sin will be converted to cos
and vice virsa (i.e. cos will be converted to sin).

Step III: Now check in which quadrant n is lying if it is in Ist or IInd quadrant the answer
2
will be positive as sin is positive in these quadrants and if it is in the IIIrd or IVth quadrant the
answer will be negative.
e.g. sin 667 o = sin ( 7(90) + 37 )
Since n = 7 is odd so answer will be in cos and 667 is in IVth quadrant and sin is ive in IVth
o o
quadrant therefore answer will be in negative. i.e sin 667 = cos37
Similar technique is used for other trigonometric ratios. i.e tan cot and sec csc .
