Double Angle Formula Flashcards
What is the double angle formula for sine?
sin(2θ) = 2sin(θ)cos(θ)
What is the double angle formula for cosine?
cos(2θ) = cos²(θ) - sin²(θ)
= cos²(θ) -1
= 1-2sin²(θ)
True or False: The double angle formula for tangent is tan(2θ) = 2tan(θ)/1 - tan²(θ)
True
Fill in the blank: The double angle formula for cosine can also be expressed as cos(2θ) = _____ - sin²(θ).

If sin(θ) = 1/2, what is sin(2θ)?
(Find for θ sin inverse)
sin(2θ) = 2sinθcosθ
=2(1/2)(√3/2)
= √3/2
What is cos(2θ) when θ = 45°?
cos(90°) = 0
Fill in the blank: The double angle formula for tangent is tan(2θ) = _____ / (1 - tan²θ).
2tan(θ)
What is the double angle formula for cosine in terms of cosine only?
cos(2θ) = 2cos²(θ) - 1
If cos(θ) = 0, what is cos(2θ)?
-1
Evaluate tan(2θ) if tan(θ) = 1.
tan(2θ) = 2/(1 - 1) is undefined.
Fill in the blank: The double angle formula for cosine can be expressed as cos(2θ) = _____ - 2sin²(θ).
