Trig Identities Lesson 3.1
Ratio Identities • Since we know that x = cos t and y = cos t …
Reciprocal Identities • Identities given by definition
(x,y) r y θ x Pythagorean Identities • From the unit circle we saw that x2 + y2 = 1 • Thus • Also from (x, y) defn.
Verifying Trig Identities • We will be given an equation • Must prove that it is an identity • Strategy • Work with one side only • Substitute expressions using the identities • Goal is to manipulate one side to look like the other side
