Trigonometry Formulas 2022

There are six trigonometric operations: Sin, Cos, Tan, Sec, Cosec, and Cot. Trigonometric ratios can be used to derive the current length and angle. All trigonometry formulae, formula tricks, and questions are built upon these six functions. Aspirants have access to information about trigonometry, including formulas, tips for using trigonometry formulas, and questions. There are questions about trigonometry in several competitive exams, including the SSC, Railway, and others. This website has notes on formula trigonometry that are useful for exams. You can use it to help you master the basic trigonometric formulas. Below is a complete collection of all the trigonometric formulas for classes 10 and 11, as well as for classes 12 and 13.

Important Identities of Trigonometric Ratios

To learn the basics of trigonometry, you must be aware of all significant trigonometric ratios and their identities.

Ratios in Trigonometry

We will make advantage of a right-angled triangle to learn several trigonometric ratio functions. Assume that the angle A of the right-angled triangle ABC is 90 degrees.


Trigonometric ratio relationships

 

 

 

 

Trigonometric ratio values for each quadrant

Different Trigonometric Ratio Specific Angle Values

To answer the question based on the trigonometric ratio of the angles 0°, 30°, 45°, and 60°, you must become familiar with the following table.

Relationship between the squares of several types of trigonometric ratios in trigonometry

Important Idea to Address a Particular Type of Question

If A + B = 90°

Results that are true always :

(i)  sin A. sec B = 1 or  sin A = cos B

(ii) cos A. cosec B = 1 or  sec A = cosec B

(iii) tan A. tan B = 1  or tan A = cot B

(iv) cot A. cot B = 1

(v)  sin²A + sin² B = 1

(vi) cos² A + cos² B = 1

Formula for the Sum and Difference of Two Angles in Trigonometry, an Important Formula

(1) sin (A+B) =sinA. cosB + cosA sinB

(2) sin(A – B) =sinA. cosB – cosA sinB

(3) cos(A+B) =cosA. cosB – sinA sinB

(4) cos(A-B) = cosA. cosB+sinA sinB

(5) 2 sinA.cosB = sin(A+B)+sin (A-B)

(6) 2 cosA. sinB = sin(A+B)-sin (A-B)

(7) 2 sinA. sinB = cos(A-B)-cos(A+B)

(8) 2 cosA.cosB = cos(A+B)+cos(A-B)

(9) sin²A-sin²B = sin(A+B). sin(A-B)

(10) cos²A-cos²B = cos(A+B).cos (A-B)

Tangent Trigonometry Formulas

List of trigonometric formulas 

If A + B + C equals 180 degrees, then A + B + C equals A. B. C. 

If A + B + C = 90°, then A + B + C must also equal A cot B cot C. 

If sin(a) + cosec(a) = 2,

Then, 

Maximum & Minimum Value in Trigonometry 
Highest & Lowest Value

The two extremes are Minimum and Maximum 

                                                     Minimum                           Maximum

  • sin θ, cos θ [odd power]             –1                                         +1
  • sin θ, cos θ [even power]             0                                         +1
  • tan θ, cot θ [odd power]             –∞                                       +∞
  • tan θ, cot θ [even power]             0                                        +∞
  • sec θ, cosec θ [odd power]         –∞                                       +∞
  • sec θ, cosec θ [even power]        +1                                        +∞

     
Their names and abbreviations are sine (sin), cosine (cos), tangent (tan), cotangent (cot), secant (sec), and cosecant (csc).

Who is the father of trigonometry?

Hipparchus of Nicaea
