Pythagorean identities
sin^2 x + cos^2 x = 1
1 + tan^2 x = sec^2 x
1 + cot^2 x = cosec^2 x
sin(A+-B)

cosAcosB -+ sinAsinB
tan(A+-B)
(tanA +- tanB) / (1 -+ tanAtanB)
sin2x
2sinxcosx
cos2x
2 cos^2 x - 1 OR 1 - 2 sin^2 x OR cos^2 x - sin^2 x
tan2x
(2tanx)/(1-tan^2x)
sin^2 x (Double angle)
1/2 - 1/2 cos2x
cos^2 x (Double angle)
1/2 + 1/2 cos 2x
If Rcosx = a, Rsinx = b:
R = root(a^2 + b^2), tanx = b/a
