4.2 Verifying Trigonometric Identities Verifying identities Testing identities using a graphing calculator
Verifying Identities Verify csc(-x) = -csc x Verify tan x sin x + cos x = sec x
Verifying Identities Verify right-to-left:
Verifying Identities Using a Calculator Graph both sides of the equation in the same viewing window. If they produce different graphs they are not identities. If they appear the same the identity must still be verified. Example:
4.3 Sum, Difference, and Cofunction Identities Sum and difference identities for cosine Cofunction identities Sum and difference identities for sine and tangent Summary and use
Sum and Difference Identities for Cosine cos(x – y) = cos x cos y - sin x sin y Claim: cos(p/2 – y) = siny Proof: cos(p/2 – y) = cos (p/2) cos y + sin(p/2) sin y = 0 cos y + 1 sin y = sin y
Sum and Difference Formula for Sine and Tangent sin (x- y) = sin x cos x + cos x sin y
