The important sin cos tan formulas (with respect to the above figure) are: sin A = Opposite side/Hypotenuse = BC/AB. cos A = Adjacent side/Hypotenuse = AC/AB. tan A = Opposite side/Adjacent side = BC/AC. We can derive some other sin cos tan formulas using these definitions of sin, cos, and tan functions. We know that sin, cos, and tan are the
The formula for tan 2x can be derived by using the double angle formulas for sine and cosine functions. We already know, tan x = sin x/cos x. Substituting x with 2x in the equation, we get. tan 2x = sin 2x/cos 2x ⇢ (1) Put sin 2x = 2 sin x cos x and cos 2x = cos 2 x – sin 2 x in the equation (1). tan 2x = 2 sin x cos x/ (cos 2 x – sin 2 x)
tan (255) tan ( 255) First, split the angle into two angles where the values of the six trigonometric functions are known. In this case, 255 255 can be split into 210+45 210 + 45. tan(210+45) tan ( 210 + 45) Use the sum formula for tangent to simplify the expression. The formula states that tan(A+B) = tan(A)+tan(B) 1− tan(A)tan(B) tan ( A + BYou would need an expression to work with. For example: Given sinα = 3 5 and cosα = − 4 5, you could find sin2α by using the double angle identity. sin2α = 2sinαcosα. sin2α = 2(3 5)( − 4 5) = − 24 25. You could find cos2α by using any of: cos2α = cos2α −sin2α. cos2α = 1 −2sin2α. cos2α = 2cos2α − 1.Tan3x formula can be derived using the formulas tan (A + B) = (tan A + tan B) / (1 - tan A tan B) and tan 2x = (2 tan x) / (1 - tan 2 x) and substituting 3x = 2x + x. What is the Domain and Range of Tan3x? We know that the domain of tan x is all real numbers except nπ + π/2 and the range of tan x is all real numbers.
