Trigonometric Identities

csc t = 1/sin t			tan t = sin t/cos t
sec t = 1/cos t			cot t = cos t/sin t
cot t = 1/tan t
sin2 t + cos2 t = 1			sin (–t) = –sin t
1 + tan2 t = sec2 t			cos (–t) = cos t
1 + cot2 t = csc2 t			tan (–t) = –tan t
sin (u + v) = sin u cos v + cos u sin v
cos (u + v) = cos u cos v – sin u sin v
tan (u + v) =		tan u + tan v
	1 – tan u tan v

sin (u – v) = sin u cos v – cos u sin v cos (u – v) = cos u cos v + sin u sin v

tan (u – v) = tan u – tan v 1 + tan u tan v

sin 2u =2 sin u cos u

cos 2u = cos2 u – sin2 u = 1 – 2 sin 2 u = 2 cos2 u – 1
