Important Trigonometry Notes

This document discusses important trigonometric ratio identities and formulas. It defines trigonometric ratios like sine, cosine, and tangent using a right triangle. It presents relations between ratios like cosecant and sine. It discusses the values of ratios in different quadrants and for specific angles like 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°. Formulas are given for sums and differences of angles, squares of ratios, and tangent formulas for combined angles. Important concepts like ratios when two angles sum to 90° are also covered.

Value of Trigonometric Ratios in Different Quadrants

Different Values of Specific Angle of Trigonometric Ratio


You must learn the following table to solve the question based on trigonometrical ratio of angle 0°, 30°, 45°,
60°,

Relation Between Square Of Different Types Of Trigonometric ratios


(i) sin²θ + cos²θ = 1 or sin²θ = 1- cos²θ or cos²θ = 1- sin²θ
(ii) 1 + tan²θ = sec²θ or tan²θ = sec²θ – 1 or sec²θ - tan²θ = 1
(iii) 1+ cot²θ = cosec²θ or cosec²θ -1 = cot²θ or cosec²θ - cot²θ = 1

Important Concept to Solve a Specific 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
