&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Proofs of trigonometric identities&#039;&#039;&#039; are used to show relations between [[trigonometric functions]]. This article will list trigonometric identities and prove them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Elementary trigonometric identities==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Definitions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Trigonometric Triangle.svg|right|thumb|Trigonometric functions specify the relationships between side lengths and interior angles of a right triangle. For example, the sine of angle θ is defined as being the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the hypotenuse.|396x396px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Referring to the diagram at the right, the six trigonometric functions of θ are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \sin \theta = \frac {\mathrm{opposite}}{\mathrm{hypotenuse}} = \frac {a}{h}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \cos \theta = \frac {\mathrm{adjacent}}{\mathrm{hypotenuse}} = \frac {b}{h}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \tan \theta = \frac {\mathrm{opposite}}{\mathrm{adjacent}} = \frac {a}{b}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \cot \theta = \frac {\mathrm{adjacent}}{\mathrm{opposite}} = \frac {b}{a}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \sec \theta = \frac {\mathrm{hypotenuse}}{\mathrm{adjacent}} = \frac {h}{b}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \csc \theta = \frac {\mathrm{hypotenuse}}{\mathrm{opposite}} = \frac {h}{a}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ratio identities===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The following identities are trivial algebraic consequences of these definitions and the division identity.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
c is whatever value (not necessarily trigonometric), only to understand the simple demonstrations above.&lt;br /&gt;
That is because not appear in the graph.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac {a}{b}= \frac {\left(\frac {a}{c}\right)} {\left(\frac {b}{c}\right) }.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \tan \theta&lt;br /&gt;
= \frac{\mathrm{opposite}}{\mathrm{adjacent}}&lt;br /&gt;
= \frac { \left( \frac{\mathrm{opposite}}{\mathrm{hypotenuse}} \right) } { \left( \frac{\mathrm{adjacent}}{\mathrm{hypotenuse}}\right) }&lt;br /&gt;
= \frac {\sin \theta} {\cos \theta}. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \cot \theta = \frac {\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \cot \theta =\frac{\mathrm{adjacent}}{\mathrm{opposite}}&lt;br /&gt;
= \frac { \left( \frac{\mathrm{adjacent}}{\mathrm{adjacent}} \right) } { \left( \frac {\mathrm{opposite}}{\mathrm{adjacent}} \right) } = \frac {1}{\tan \theta}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \sec \theta = \frac {1}{\cos \theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \csc \theta = \frac {1}{\sin \theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \tan \theta = \frac{\mathrm{opposite}}{\mathrm{adjacent}}&lt;br /&gt;
= \frac{\left(\frac{\mathrm{opposite} \times \mathrm{hypotenuse}}{\mathrm{opposite} \times \mathrm{adjacent}} \right) } { \left( \frac {\mathrm{adjacent} \times \mathrm{hypotenuse}} {\mathrm{opposite} \times \mathrm{adjacent} } \right) } &lt;br /&gt;
= \frac{\left( \frac{\mathrm{hypotenuse}}{\mathrm{adjacent}} \right)} { \left( \frac{\mathrm{hypotenuse}}{\mathrm{opposite}} \right)}&lt;br /&gt;
= \frac {\sec \theta}{\csc \theta}.  &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \cot \theta = \frac {\csc \theta}{\sec \theta}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Complementary angle identities===&lt;br /&gt;
Two angles whose sum is π/2 radians (90 degrees) are &#039;&#039;complementary&#039;&#039;.  In the diagram, the angles at vertices A and B are complementary, so we can exchange a and b, and change θ to π/2&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;minus;&amp;amp;nbsp;θ, obtaining:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \sin\left(  \pi/2-\theta\right) = \cos \theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \cos\left(  \pi/2-\theta\right) = \sin \theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \tan\left(  \pi/2-\theta\right) = \cot \theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \cot\left(  \pi/2-\theta\right) = \tan \theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \sec\left(  \pi/2-\theta\right) = \csc \theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \csc\left(  \pi/2-\theta\right) = \sec \theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Pythagorean identities ===&lt;br /&gt;
Identity 1:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin^2(x) + \cos^2(x) = 1\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Proof 1:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Refer to the triangle diagram above. Note that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a^2+b^2=h^2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; by [[Pythagorean theorem]].&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin^2(x) + \cos^2(x) = \frac{a^2}{h^2} + \frac{b^2}{h^2} = \frac{a^2+b^2}{h^2} = \frac{h^2}{h^2} = 1.\, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The following two results follow from this and the ratio identities. To obtain the first, divide both sides of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin^2(x) + \cos^2(x) = 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos^2(x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;; for the second, divide by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin^2(x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan^2(x) + 1\ = \sec^2(x) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sec^2(x) - \tan^2(x) = 1\ &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; 1\ + \cot^2(x) = \csc^2(x) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\csc^2(x) - \cot^2(x) = 1\ &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Proof 2:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Differentiating the left-hand side of the identity yields:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;2 \sin x \cdot \cos x - 2 \sin x \cdot \cos x = 0 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Integrating this shows that the original identity is equal to a constant, and this constant can be found by plugging in any arbitrary value of x.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Identity 2:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The following accounts for all three reciprocal functions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \csc^2(x) + \sec^2(x) - \cot^2(x) = 2\ + \tan^2(x) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Proof 1:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Refer to the triangle diagram above. Note that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a^2+b^2=h^2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; by [[Pythagorean theorem]].&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\csc^2(x) + \sec^2(x) = \frac{h^2}{a^2} + \frac{h^2}{b^2} = \frac{a^2+b^2}{a^2} + \frac{a^2+b^2}{b^2} = 2\ + \frac{b^2}{a^2} + \frac{a^2}{b^2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Substituting with appropriate functions -&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; 2\ + \frac{b^2}{a^2} + \frac{a^2}{b^2} = 2\ + \tan^2(x)+ \cot^2(x) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rearranging gives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \csc^2(x) + \sec^2(x) - \cot^2(x) = 2\ + \tan^2(x) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Angle sum identities===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Sine====&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:TrigSumFormula.svg|right|thumb|350px|Illustration of the sum formula.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Draw the angles α and β.  Place P on the line defined by α + β at unit distance from the origin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let PQ be a perpendicular from P to the line defined by the angle α.&lt;br /&gt;
OQP is a right angle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let QA be a perpendicular from Q to the x axis, and PB be a perpendicular from P to the x axis.&lt;br /&gt;
OAQ is a right angle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Draw QR parallel to the &#039;&#039;x&#039;&#039;-axis.&lt;br /&gt;
Now angle RPQ = α (because OQA = 90 - α, making RQO = α, RQP = 90-α , and finally RPQ = α )  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;RPQ = \tfrac{\pi}{2} - RQP = \tfrac{\pi}{2} - (\tfrac{\pi}{2} - RQO) = RQO = \alpha&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;OP = 1\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;PQ = \sin \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;OQ = \cos \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{AQ}{OQ} = \sin \alpha\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, so &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;AQ = \sin \alpha \cos \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{PR}{PQ} = \cos \alpha\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, so &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;PR = \cos \alpha \sin \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin (\alpha + \beta) = PB = RB+PR = AQ+PR = \sin \alpha \cos \beta + \cos \alpha \sin \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By substituting &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\beta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\beta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and using [[List of trigonometric identities#Symmetry|Symmetry]], we also get:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin (\alpha - \beta) = \sin \alpha \cos -\beta + \cos \alpha \sin -\beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin (\alpha - \beta) = \sin \alpha \cos \beta - \cos \alpha \sin \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another simple &amp;quot;proof&amp;quot; can be given using Euler&#039;s formula known from complex analysis:&lt;br /&gt;
Euler&#039;s formula is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;e^{i\varphi}=\cos \varphi +i \sin \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although it is more precise to say that Euler&#039;s formula entails the trigonometric identities, it follows that for angles &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\beta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; we have:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;e^{i (\alpha + \beta)} = \cos (\alpha +\beta) + i \sin(\alpha +\beta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also using  the following properties of exponential functions:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;e^{i(\alpha + \beta)} = e^{i \alpha} e^{i\beta}= (\cos \alpha +i \sin \alpha) (\cos \beta + i \sin \beta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Evaluating the product:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;e^{i(\alpha + \beta)} = (\cos \alpha \cos \beta - \sin \alpha \sin \beta)+i(\sin \alpha \cos \beta + \sin \beta \cos \alpha)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This will only be equal to the previous expression we got, if the imaginary and real parts are equal respectively. &lt;br /&gt;
Hence we get:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos (\alpha +\beta)=\cos \alpha \cos \beta - \sin \alpha \sin \beta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin (\alpha +\beta)=\sin \alpha \cos \beta + \sin \beta \cos \alpha&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Cosine====&lt;br /&gt;
Using the figure above,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;OP = 1\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;PQ = \sin \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;OQ = \cos \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{OA}{OQ} = \cos \alpha\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, so &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;OA = \cos \alpha \cos \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{RQ}{PQ} = \sin \alpha\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, so &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;RQ = \sin \alpha \sin \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos (\alpha + \beta) = OB = OA-BA = OA-RQ = \cos \alpha \cos \beta\ - \sin \alpha \sin \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By substituting &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\beta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\beta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and using [[List of trigonometric identities#Symmetry|Symmetry]], we also get:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos (\alpha - \beta) = \cos \alpha \cos - \beta\ - \sin \alpha \sin - \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos (\alpha - \beta) = \cos \alpha \cos \beta + \sin \alpha \sin \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also, using the complementary angle formulae,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos (\alpha + \beta) = \sin\left(  \pi/2-(\alpha + \beta)\right) = \sin\left(  (\pi/2-\alpha) - \beta\right)\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;= \sin\left(  \pi/2-\alpha\right) \cos \beta - \cos\left(  \pi/2-\alpha\right) \sin \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;= \cos \alpha \cos \beta - \sin \alpha \sin \beta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Tangent and cotangent====&lt;br /&gt;
From the sine and cosine formulae, we get&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan (\alpha + \beta) = \frac{\sin (\alpha + \beta)}{\cos (\alpha + \beta)}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;= \frac{\sin \alpha \cos \beta + \cos \alpha \sin \beta}{\cos \alpha \cos \beta - \sin \alpha \sin \beta}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dividing both numerator and denominator by cos α cos β, we get&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan (\alpha + \beta) = \frac{\tan \alpha + \tan \beta}{1 - \tan \alpha \tan \beta}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan (\alpha - \beta) = \frac{\tan \alpha - \tan \beta}{1 + \tan \alpha \tan \beta}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly from the sine and cosine formulae, we get&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cot (\alpha + \beta) = \frac{\cos (\alpha + \beta)}{\sin (\alpha + \beta)}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;= \frac{\cos \alpha \cos \beta - \sin \alpha \sin \beta}{\sin \alpha \cos \beta + \cos \alpha \sin \beta}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then by dividing both numerator and denominator by  sin α sin β, we get&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cot (\alpha + \beta) = \frac{\cot \alpha \cot \beta - 1}{\cot \alpha + \cot \beta}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cot (\alpha - \beta) = \frac{\cot \alpha \cot \beta + 1}{\cot \beta - \cot \alpha}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Double-angle identities ===&lt;br /&gt;
From the angle sum identities, we get&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin (2 \theta) = 2 \sin \theta \cos \theta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos (2 \theta) = \cos^2 \theta - \sin^2 \theta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Pythagorean identities give the two alternative forms for the latter of these:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos (2 \theta) = 2 \cos^2 \theta - 1\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos (2 \theta) = 1 - 2 \sin^2 \theta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angle sum identities also give&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan (2 \theta) = \frac{2 \tan \theta}{1 - \tan^2 \theta} = \frac{2}{\cot \theta - \tan \theta}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cot (2 \theta) = \frac{\cot^2 \theta - 1}{2 \cot \theta} = \frac{\cot \theta - \tan \theta}{2}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It can also be proved using [[Euler&#039;s formula]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; e^{i \varphi}=\cos \varphi +i \sin \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Squaring both sides yields&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; e^{i 2\varphi}=(\cos \varphi +i \sin \varphi)^{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But replacing the angle with its doubled version, which achieves the same result in the left side of the equation, yields&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; e^{i 2\varphi}=\cos 2\varphi +i \sin 2\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It follows that&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\cos \varphi +i \sin \varphi)^{2}=\cos 2\varphi +i \sin 2\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Expanding the square and simplifying on the left hand side of the equation gives&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;i(2 \sin \varphi \cos \varphi) + \cos^2 \varphi - \sin^2 \varphi\ = \cos 2\varphi +i \sin 2\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because the imaginary and real parts have to be the same, we are left with the original identities&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos^2 \varphi - \sin^2 \varphi\ = \cos 2\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and also&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;2 \sin \varphi \cos \varphi = \sin 2\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Half-angle identities ===&lt;br /&gt;
The two identities giving the alternative forms for cos 2θ lead to the following equations:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos \frac{\theta}{2} = \pm\, \sqrt\frac{1 + \cos \theta}{2},\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin \frac{\theta}{2} = \pm\, \sqrt\frac{1 - \cos \theta}{2}.\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The sign of the square root needs to be chosen properly&amp;amp;mdash;note that if 2π is added to θ, the quantities inside the square roots are unchanged, but the left-hand-sides of the equations change sign.  Therefore the correct sign to use depends on the value of θ.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the tan function, the equation is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan \frac{\theta}{2} = \pm\, \sqrt\frac{1 - \cos \theta}{1 + \cos \theta}.\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then multiplying the numerator and denominator inside the square root by (1 + cos θ) and using Pythagorean identities leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan \frac{\theta}{2} = \frac{\sin \theta}{1 + \cos \theta}.\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also, if the numerator and denominator are both multiplied by (1 - cos θ), the result is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan \frac{\theta}{2} = \frac{1 - \cos \theta}{\sin \theta}.\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This also gives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan \frac{\theta}{2} = \csc \theta - \cot \theta.\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similar manipulations for the cot function give:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cot \frac{\theta}{2} = \pm\, \sqrt\frac{1 + \cos \theta}{1 - \cos \theta} = \frac{1 + \cos \theta}{\sin \theta} = \frac{\sin \theta}{1 - \cos \theta} = \csc \theta + \cot \theta.\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miscellaneous -- the triple tangent identity===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\text{If }\psi + \theta + \phi = \pi = \text{half circle,}\, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\text{then }\tan(\psi) + \tan(\theta) + \tan(\phi) = \tan(\psi)\tan(\theta)\tan(\phi).\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Proof:&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://mathlaoshi.com/tags/tangent-identity/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi = \pi - \theta - \phi\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan(\psi) = \tan(\pi - \theta - \phi) = - \tan(\theta + \phi) = \frac{- \tan\theta - \tan\phi}{1 - \tan\theta \tan\phi}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(1 - \tan\theta \tan\phi) \tan\psi + \tan\theta + \tan\phi = 0\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan\psi - \tan\theta \tan\phi \tan\psi + \tan\theta + \tan\phi = 0\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miscellaneous -- the triple cotangent identity===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\text{If }\psi + \theta + \phi = \tfrac{\pi}{2} = \text{quarter circle,}\, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\text{then }\cot(\psi) + \cot(\theta) + \cot(\phi) = \cot(\psi)\cot(\theta)\cot(\phi).\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Proof:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Replace each of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi\, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta\, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\phi\, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with their complementary angles, so cotangents turn into tangents and vice-versa.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now if&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi + \theta + \phi = \tfrac{\pi}{2}\, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
then&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\tfrac{\pi}{2}-\psi) + (\tfrac{\pi}{2}-\theta) + (\tfrac{\pi}{2}-\phi) = \tfrac{3\pi}{2} - (\psi+\theta+\phi) = \tfrac{3\pi}{2} - \tfrac{\pi}{2} = \pi\, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
so the result follows from the triple tangent identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Prosthaphaeresis identities ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin \theta \pm \sin y = 2 \sin \frac{\theta\pm y}2 \cos \frac{\theta\mp y}2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos \theta + \cos y = 2 \cos \frac{\theta+y}2 \cos \frac{\theta-y}2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos \theta - \cos y = -2 \sin \frac{\theta+y}2 \sin \frac{\theta-y}2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- these need to be proven --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Inequalities ===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:TrigInequality.svg|right|thumb|342px|Illustration of the sine and tangent inequalities.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The figure at the right shows a sector of a circle with radius 1.  The sector is θ/(2π) of the whole circle, so its area is θ/2.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;OA = OD = 1\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;AB = \sin \theta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;CD = \tan \theta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The area of triangle OAD is AB/2, or sinθ/2.  The area of triangle OCD is CD/2, or tanθ/2.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since triangle OAD lies completely inside the sector, which in turn lies completely inside triangle OCD, we have&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin \theta &amp;lt; \theta &amp;lt; \tan \theta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This geometric argument applies if 0&amp;lt;θ&amp;lt;π/2. It relies on definitions of [[arc length]] and &lt;br /&gt;
[[Jordan measure|area]], which act as assumptions, so it is rather a condition imposed in construction of [[trigonometric functions]] than&lt;br /&gt;
a provable property.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{cite journal|last=Richman|first=Fred|title=A Circular Argument|journal=The College Mathematics Journal|date=March 1993|volume=24|issue=2|pages=160–162|url=http://www.jstor.org/stable/2686787 .|accessdate=3 November 2012}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; For the sine function, we can handle other values.  If θ&amp;gt;π/2, then θ&amp;gt;1.  But sinθ≤1 (because of the Pythagorean identity), so sinθ&amp;lt;θ.  So we have&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{\sin \theta}{\theta} &amp;lt; 1\ \ \ \mathrm{if}\ \ \ 0 &amp;lt; \theta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For negative values of θ we have, by symmetry of the sine function&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{\sin \theta}{\theta} = \frac{\sin (-\theta)}{-\theta} &amp;lt; 1\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hence&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{\sin \theta}{\theta} &amp;lt; 1\ \ \ \mathrm{if}\ \ \ \theta \ne 0\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{\tan \theta}{\theta} &amp;gt; 1\ \ \ \mathrm{if}\ \ \ 0 &amp;lt; \theta &amp;lt; \frac{\pi}{2}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Identities involving calculus==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Preliminaries===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\lim_{\theta \to 0}{\sin \theta} = 0\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\lim_{\theta \to 0}{\cos \theta} = 1\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These can be seen from looking at the diagrams.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Sine and angle ratio identity===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\lim_{\theta \to 0}{\frac{\sin \theta}{\theta}} = 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Proof: From the previous inequalities, we have, for small angles&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin \theta &amp;lt; \theta &amp;lt; \tan \theta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, so&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{\sin \theta}{\theta} &amp;lt; 1 &amp;lt; \frac{\tan \theta}{\theta}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, so&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{\sin \theta}{\theta \cos \theta} &amp;gt; 1\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, or&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{\sin \theta}{\theta} &amp;gt;  \cos \theta\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, so&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos \theta &amp;lt; \frac{\sin \theta}{\theta} &amp;lt; 1\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, but&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\lim_{\theta \to 0}{\cos \theta} = 1\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, so&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\lim_{\theta \to 0}{\frac{\sin \theta}{\theta}} = 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Cosine and angle ratio identity ===&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\lim_{\theta \to 0}\frac{1 - \cos \theta}{\theta} = 0\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Proof:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{1 - \cos \theta}{\theta} = \frac{1 - \cos^2 \theta}{\theta (1 + \cos \theta)}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;= \frac{\sin^2 \theta}{\theta (1 + \cos \theta)}\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;= \frac{\sin \theta}{\theta} \times \sin \theta \times \frac{1}{1 + \cos \theta}.\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The limits of those three quantities are 1, 0, and 1/2, so the resultant limit is zero.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Cosine and square of angle ratio identity ===&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \lim_{\theta \to 0}\frac{1 - \cos \theta}{\theta^2}  = \frac{1}{2} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Proof:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As in the preceding proof,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{1 - \cos \theta}{\theta^2} = \frac{\sin \theta}{\theta} \times \frac{\sin \theta}{\theta} \times \frac{1}{1 + \cos \theta}.\,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The limits of those three quantities are 1, 1, and 1/2, so the resultant limit is 1/2.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Proof of Compositions of trig and inverse trig functions ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All these functions follow from the Pythagorean trigonometric identity. We can prove for instance the function &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin[\arctan(x)]=\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Proof:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We start from&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta=1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
Then we divide this equation by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos^2\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\cos^2\theta=\frac{1}{\tan^2\theta+1}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then use the substitution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta=\arctan(x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, also use the Pythagorean trigonometric identity:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;1-\sin^2[\arctan(x)]=\frac{1}{\tan^2[\arctan(x)]+1}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then we use the identity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan[\arctan(x)]\equiv x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sin[\arctan(x)]=\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+1}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
