cosec 2 A = 1 + cot 2 A

sin( A B ) = sin A cos B cos A sin B

cos( A B ) = cos A cos B m sin A sin B

tan( A B) =

tan A tan B

sin 2 A = 2 sin A cos A

cos 2 A = cos 2 A sin 2 A = 2 cos 2 A 1 = 1 2 sin 2 A

tan 2 A =

2 tan A

sin A + sin B = 2 sin 12 ( A + B ) cos 12 ( A B )

sin A sin B = 2 cos 12 ( A + B ) sin 12 ( A B )
cos A + cos B = 2 cos 12 ( A + B ) cos 12 ( A B )
cos A cos B = 2 sin 12 ( A + B ) sin 12 ( A B )
