(sin x + cos x) / cosx = sin x / cos x + cosx / cos x = tan x + 1
tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x) Therefore, all trigonometric ratios can be expressed in terms of sin and cos. So the identity can be rewritten in terms of sin and cos. Then there are only two "tools": sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) = 1 and sin(x) = cos(pi/2 - x) Suitable use of these will enable you to prove the identity.
sin2(1) = 1 - cos2(1) = 1 - [cos(1)]2
Try to write everything in terms of sines and cosines:1 / cos B - cos B = (sin B / cos B) sin B1 / cos B - cos B = sin2B / cos BMultiply by the common denominator, cos B:1 - cos2B = sin2BUse the pithagorean identity on the left side:sin2B + cos2B - cos2B = sin2Bsin2B = sin2B
tan = sin/cos Now cos2 = 1 - sin2 so cos = +/- sqrt(1 - sin2) In the second quadrant, cos is negative, so cos = - sqrt(1 - sin2) So that tan = sin/[-sqrt(1 - sin2)] or -sin/sqrt(1 - sin2)
the Alamo
cos = sqrt(1 - sin^2)
(sin x + cos x) / cosx = sin x / cos x + cosx / cos x = tan x + 1
Provided that any denominator is non-zero, sin = sqrt(1 - cos^2)tan = sqrt(1 - cos^2)/cos sec = 1/cos cosec = 1/sqrt(1 - cos^2) cot = cos/sqrt(1 - cos^2)
That is just not true. Sin and cos terms are used for many other purposes : for example the components of a force along orthogonal axes.
He was on the Mexican side, he was captured by the Texan army, but was later released after surrender.

(1 - cos(2x))/2, where x is the variable. And/Or, 1 - cos(x)^2, where x is the variable.

You need to make use of the formulae for sin(A+B) and cos(A+B), and that cos is an even function: sin(A+B) = cos A sin B + sin A cos B cos(A+B) = cos A cos B - sin A sin B cos even fn → cos(-x) = cos(x) To prove: (cos A + sin A)(cos 2A + sin 2A) = cos A + sin 3A The steps are to work with the left hand side, expand the brackets, collect [useful] terms together, apply A+B formula above (backwards) and apply even nature of cos function: (cos A + sin A)(cos 2A + sin 2A) = cos A cos 2A + cos A sin 2A + sin A cos 2A + sin A sin 2A = (cos A cos 2A + sin A sin 2A) + (cos A sin 2A + sin A cos 2A) = cos(A - 2A) + sin(A + 2A) = cos(-A) + sin 3A = cos A + sin 3A which is the right hand side as required.
Using Euler's Formula, you use (cos(x) + i sin(x))^n = cos (nx) + i sin(nx) Now you let n=3 (cos(x) + i sin (x))3 = cos(3x) + i sin (3x) (cos(x))3 + 3(cos(x))2 * i sin(x) + 3cos(x) * i2 (sin(x))3 = cos(3x)+ i sin(3x) (cos(x))3 + i(3sin(x)(cos (x))2) - 3cos(x)(sin(x)2) - i(sin(x))3 = cos (3x) + i sin(3x) Now only use the terms with i in them to figure out what sin(3x) is... 3sin(x)(cos(x))2 - (sin(x))3 = sin(3x) Hope this helps! :D
