Formula and Equation Sheet

Formulas

1

sin A = opposite/hypotenuse

sin A represents the sine of angle A, where 'opposite' is the length of the side opposite to angle A and 'hypotenuse' is the length of the longest side in the right triangle. Used to find the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse.

2

cos A = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos A represents the cosine of angle A, where 'adjacent' is the length of the side adjacent to angle A. Used to find the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse.

3

tan A = opposite/adjacent

tan A represents the tangent of angle A. It is the ratio of the sine of angle A to the cosine of angle A. Useful for finding the slope in geometry.

4

cosec A = 1/sin A

cosec A is the cosecant of angle A, the reciprocal of sin A. Used in trigonometric identities and equations.

5

sec A = 1/cos A

sec A is the secant of angle A, the reciprocal of cos A. Important in trigonometric functions and identities.

6

cot A = 1/tan A

cot A is the cotangent of angle A, the reciprocal of tan A. Used in various trigonometric calculations.

7

sin² A + cos² A = 1

This is the Pythagorean identity, showing the fundamental relation between sin A and cos A in a right triangle.

8

1 + tan² A = sec² A

Derived from the Pythagorean identity, this relation connects tan A and sec A. Useful in trigonometric proofs and problems.

9

1 + cot² A = cosec² A

Another Pythagorean identity variant, linking cot A and cosec A. Essential for solving trigonometric equations.

10

tan A = sin A / cos A

Shows the relationship between tan A, sin A, and cos A. Useful for converting between trigonometric functions.

Equations

1

sin 30° = 1/2

The sine of 30 degrees is 1/2. This is a standard value used in solving problems involving right triangles with a 30° angle.

2

cos 45° = 1/√2

The cosine of 45 degrees is 1 divided by the square root of 2. A key value for isosceles right triangles.

3

tan 60° = √3

The tangent of 60 degrees is the square root of 3. Important for equilateral triangles split into two right triangles.

4

sin 0° = 0

The sine of 0 degrees is 0, indicating no opposite side in a right triangle at this angle.

5

cos 90° = 0

The cosine of 90 degrees is 0, showing no adjacent side in a right triangle at this angle.

6

tan 45° = 1

The tangent of 45 degrees is 1, meaning the opposite and adjacent sides are equal in length.

7

cosec 30° = 2

The cosecant of 30 degrees is 2, the reciprocal of sin 30°. Useful in trigonometric calculations.

8

sec 60° = 2

The secant of 60 degrees is 2, the reciprocal of cos 60°. Important for solving trigonometric problems.

9

cot 45° = 1

The cotangent of 45 degrees is 1, the reciprocal of tan 45°. Used in various trigonometric identities.

10

sin (90° - A) = cos A

This identity shows the complementary relationship between sine and cosine functions. Essential for angle transformation.
