Consider the unit circle with centre at the origin and two points A, and B on it. Their coordinates are initially and , as in FIGURE 1. Their distance, d, is given by: . If we rotate both points, as in FIGURE 2, through an angle of , then the new coordinates of points A and B are now and . But, the distance between them will not change. Hence, by equating both distances in FIGURES 1 and 2, we will eventually arrive at the following result: COSINE DIFFERENCE FORMULA

Remember: The trigonometric function values of real numbers are exactly the trigonometric function values for the angles in radian measure since in the unit circle. 1.1) Prove the following CO-function identities: a.) d.) , b.) , e.) , c.) , f.) . These are called EVEN-ODD . ,

1.2) Prove that , and then also function identities. Note that also . 1.3) Derive the COSINE SUM FORMULA 1.4) Derive the SINE SUM AND DIFFERENCE FORMULAE and . 1.5) Derive the TANGENT SUM AND DIFFERENCE FORMULAE . 2) Find the exact value of each of the following: a.) g.) , b.) , h.) , c.) , i.) , d.) , j.) , e.) , k.)
