Trigonometry - CET

This document defines trigonometric ratios, their domains and ranges, and provides identities and properties of trigonometric ratios of standard angles, compound angles, and half angles. It discusses: 1) The domains and ranges of sin(), cos(), tan(), cosec(), sec(), and cot(). 2) The signs of trigonometric ratios in each quadrant. 3) Trigonometric ratios of some standard angles like 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°, etc. 4) Complementary and supplementary angle identities. 5) Trigonometric ratio identities for compound angles like sin(A + B), cos(A - B), and tan(A + B).
