Use the odd / even properties to rewrite with positive arguments:

1. sin (-13)º = _________________ 2. cos = __________________

3. tan (-135º) = _________________ 4. sec - = __________________
5. cot (-35º) = _________________ 6. csc (-3489º) = __________________

7. -sec (-73º) = _________________ 8. -tan = __________________

9. -sin (-305º) = _________________ 10. -cos = __________________

11. -csc (-782º) = _________________ 12. cot (-213º) = __________________

Use the cofunction properties to rewrite the following: (positive arguments)

4.3 – Sum and Difference Identities

Demonstrate that the given property really works by substituting: A = ,B=

1. cos(A – B) = cosAcosB + sinAsinB
2. cos(A + B) = cosAcosB – sinAsinB
3. sin(A – B) = sinAcosB – cosAsinB
4. sin(A + B) = sinAcosB + cosAsinB

5. tan(A – B) =

If and are the measures of two first quadrant angles, find the exact value of each function.

6 if sin = and tan = , find cos( - )

7 if csc = and tan = , find tan( + )

8 if cos = and cot = , find sin( - )

Prove that each of the following is an identity. Plug the left side in the sum/difference formulas
and simplify.
9. sin(Θ + 60º) – cos(Θ + 30º) = sinΘ
10. sin(Θ + 30º) + cos(Θ + 60º) = cosΘ

Show that the left side = the right side by finding the exact values of the following (solve by
plugging in the left side and right side into the sum/difference formulas):
11. sin 75º = cos 15º
12. sin 120º = cos (-30º)

Simplify using composite argument properties.

13. sin cos + cos sin

14. cos65°cos20° + sin65°sin20°

Use the double arguments to rewrite the following:

1. sin 2 = ________________________ 2. 2 sin x cos x = _____________________

3. sin 70º = _______________________ 4. cos 100º = ________________________
5. tan 28 = _______________________ 6. cos2 3w – sin2 3w = _________________

7. tan 49º = _______________________ 8. = __________________

9. sin x cos x = ___________________ 10. 2 cos2 40x – 1 = ___________________
11. 1 – 2 sin2 10x = _________________ 12. tan A = _________________________

13. = ___________________ 14. 4 sin 58º cos 58º = ______________
