TRIGONOMETRIC IDENTITIES Remember an identity is an equation that is true for all defined values of a variable. We are going to use the identities that we have already established to "prove" or establish other identities. Let's summarize the basic identities we have.

RECIPROCAL IDENTITIES QUOTIENT IDENTITIES PYTHAGOREAN IDENTITIES EVEN-ODD IDENTITIES

We are done! We've shown the LHS equals the RHS Verify the following identity: Let's sub in here using reciprocal identity We are done! We've shown the LHS equals the RHS We often use the Pythagorean Identities solved for either sin2 or cos2. sin2 + cos2 = 1 solved for sin2 is sin2 = 1 - cos2 which is our left-hand side so we can substitute. In establishing an identity you should NOT move things from one side of the equal sign to the other. Instead substitute using identities you know and simplifying on one side until both sides match.

Verify the following identity: Let's sub in here using reciprocal identity and quotient identity combine fractions Another trick if the you have two terms with one term a 1 and the other a sine or cosine, multiply top and bottom of the fraction by the conjugate and then you'll be able to use the Pythagorean Identity FOIL numerator

Hints for Establishing Identities Get common denominators If you have squared functions look for Pythagorean Identities Work on the more complex side first If you have a denominator of 1 + trig function try multiplying top & bottom by conjugate and use Pythagorean Identity When all else fails write everything in terms of sines and cosines using reciprocal and quotient identities Have fun with these---it's like a puzzle, can you use identities and algebra to get them to match!
