Q
Reciprocal of cos ?
A
1/sec
2
Q
Reciprocal of sin ?
A
1/cosec
3
Q
Reciprocal of tan ?
A
1/Cot
4
Q
What are the Pythagorean identities?
A
Sin^2 + cos^2 = 1
1+ cot^2 = cosec^2 ( divide by sin^2)
1+ tan^2 = sec^2 (divide by cos^2 )
5
Q
Addition formula -
Sin (a+b)
A
Sina.cosb + cosa.sinb
6
Q
Addition formulae -
Cos (a+b )
A
Cosa.Cosb- sina.sinb
7
Q
Addition formulae -
Tan (a+b )
A
tanA + tanB / 1 - tanA . Tan B
8
Q
Harmonic identity : process ?
A
- Set up using the addition formulae
- use Pythagoras to find R
- divide to find tan a , then a
9
Q
Double angle formulae :
Sin2ø
A
2sinøcosø
10
Q
Double angle formulae :
Cos2ø
A
Cos^2ø - Sin^2ø
can be further written as -
2cos^2ø -1 and 1-2sin^2ø
Cos comes first
