Trigonometric Equations

Steps to solve

Write solutions

Always write as ordered pairs when is more than one solution)

x=(0,2π)

Use the General Formula

k is any integer

One should know their angles and how to identify when to stop due to restrictions.

Helps you find the solutions as requested

θ+2kπ

0+2kπ

Find the angle

cosθ=1

θ=0

Identify the equation

cosθ=1, when ,0≤ θ ≤2π

Observe the restrictions

See what function is being used

Solutions to equations are values of the variable that make the equation a true statement.

It is used to find all x solutions

Solving equations is a technique that has been used since early Algebra courses.

Area of a Sector of a circle

The area of a sector of a circle is proportional to the measure of the central angle.

Arc Length Theorem

For a circle of radius r, a central angle (a positive angle whose vertex is at the center of a circle) of θ radians subtends an arc whose length is s

Formula in Degrees

s=(θ/360)2πr

Formula in Radians

s=θr

Radian Measure

This can only be done in Radians

θ of an angle is the measure of the ratio of length of the arc it spans on the circle to the length of the radius.

θ=s/r

θ=(arc length)/radius

Trigonometric Identities

Product to Sum

cosα-cosβ=-2(sin (α+β)/2) (sin (α-β)/2)

cosα+cosβ=2(cos (α+β)/2) (cos (α-β)/2)

sinα-sinβ=2(sin (α-β)/2) (cos (α+β)/2)

sinα+sinβ=2(sin (α+β)/2) (cos (α-β)/2)

Sum to Product

For sine and cosine

sinα cosβ=1/2[sin⁡(α+β)-sin⁡(α-β)]

cosα cosβ=1/2[cos⁡(α-β)+cos⁡(α+β)]

For sine

sinα sinβ=1/2[cos⁡(α-β)-cos⁡(α+β)]

Half Angle

tan ∝/2=(1-cos∝)/(sin∝)

tan ∝/2=±√((1-cos∝)/(1+cos∝))

cos ∝/2=±√((1+cos∝)/2)

sin ∝/2=±√((1-cos∝)/2)

Double Angle

tan^2 θ=(1-cos⁡(2θ))/(1+cos⁡(2θ))

tan⁡(2θ)=2tanθ/(1-tanθ)

cos^2 θ=(1+cos⁡(2θ))/2

cos⁡(2θ)=2cos^2 θ-1

cos⁡(2θ)=1-2sin^2 θ

cos⁡(2θ)=cos^2 θ+sin^2 θ

sin^2 θ=1-cos⁡(2θ)/2

sin⁡(2θ)=2sinθcosθ

Sum/Difference

For tangent

tan⁡(α+β)=(tan⁡α + tan⁡β)/(1-(tan⁡α tan⁡β) )

For sine

sin⁡(a-b)=sin⁡a cos⁡b-cos⁡a sin⁡b

sin⁡(a+b)=sin⁡a cos⁡b+cos⁡a sin⁡b

For cosine
