1
Q
asinx + bcos x
A
Rsin(x+y) = (Rcosy) sinx + (Rsiny)cosx
Rcos y = a
Rsiny = b
tan y = b/a
so can find y
R^2 = a^2+b^2
so can find R
so asinx + bcosx = Rsin(x+y)
2
Q
sec x
A
1/cos x
3
Q
cosec x
A
1/sinx
4
Q
cot x
A
1/tan x
5
Q
sec and tan identity
A
1 + tan^2 = sec^2
6
Q
cosec and cot identity
A
1 + cot^2 = cosec^2
