This is another way of evaluating exact answers of trig functions strictly for angles not on the unit circle
sin(2) = 2sincos cos(2) = cos2 - sin2 cos(2) = 1 – 2sin2 cos(2) = 2cos2 - 1 tan(2) = *these are on pages 476-477
*Reason that these only apply to non-unit circle values: 2 of anything on the unit circle would be an angle on the unit circle, making the formulas pointless
Example 1: Find sin(2), cos(2), and tan(2) IF sin = 3/5 and < < sin(2)
Example 1: (continued) cos(2) tan(2)
Example 2: Find sin(2), cos(2), and tan(2) IF cot = -2, sec < 0 sin(2)
Example 2: (continued) cos(2) tan(2)
*These formulas, like the sum and difference formulas, can be used with actual unit circle values or unknown angles and triangles.
*You will need to choose + or -, it is NOT both!! *these are on page 480
When given real numbers: 1 - Decide which quadrant the given angle would fall in (this will tell you whether the answer should be + or -) 2 - Multiply the given angle by 2 (this shows which unit circle value /2 would give you the given angle) 3 - Use the appropriate formula with the angle from #2 to find an exact answer
Example 1: sin(15*)
Example 2: cos(337.5*)
Example 3: tan()
When given a description: 1 – draw a triangle and list sin and cos 2 – determine which quadrant ½ the angle would be in 3 – use formula to find exact value
Example 4: If tan = ¾, < < , find sin/2, cos /2, and tan /2. sin/2
Example 4: (continued) cos /2 tan /2
