Trigonometric Identities Worksheet.

 

There are numerous trig identities, many of them very basic.  You should know these since they appear frequently:

 

     horizontal shifts.

sin (-x) = -sin x,    cos (-x) = cos x,    tan (-x) = -tan x        symmetries.

     pythagorean identities.

     double angle identities.

 

Use any appropriate methods to prove the following identities.

Completely solve for x over the given intervals.

 

5.         2cos2 x + cos x - 1 = 0,    0 £ x £ 2p

 

 

 

 

6.         cos (2x) = cos x,    0 £ x £ 2p
