Basic Formulas
sin²a + cos²a = 1
tan a. cot tan a = 1
tan a = sin a / cos a = 1 / cot tan a
cot tan a = cos a / sin a = 1 / tan a
1 + tan²a = 1 / cos²a = sec²a
1 + cot tan²a = 1/sin²a = cos sec²a

Multiple Angle Formulas

sin2a = 2 sin a cos a

cos 2a = 2cos²a - 1 = 1 - 2sin²a

= cos²a - sin²a
tan2a = 2 tan a / 1 - tan²a

cot tan 2a = cot tan²a - 1 / 2 cot tan a = cot tan a - tan a/2

sin 3a = 3 sin a - 4sin³a

tan3a = 3 tan a - tan³a / 1 - 3 tan²a

cot tan 3a = cot tan³a - 3 cot tan a / 3 cot tan²a - 1

Powers of Trigonometric Functions

sin²a = ½ (1 - cos2a)
cos²a = ½ (1 + cos2a)
tan²a = 1 - cos2a / 1 + cos2a
sin³a = ¼ (3 sin a - sin 3a)
cos³a = ¼ (3 cos a + cos3a)
sin⁴a = ⅛ (cos 4a - 4cos 2a + 6/2)
cos⁴a = ⅛ (cos4a + 4cos 2a + 6/2)
sin⁵a = 1/16 (sin 5a - 5sin 3a + 10 sin a)
cos⁵a = 1/16 (cos 5a + 5cos 3a + 10 cos a)

Formulas with t=tan(x/2)

sin x = 2t/1+t²
tan x = 2t/1-t²
cos x = 1-t²/1+t²
cotan x = 1-t²/2t

Addition Formulas
sin(a ± β) = sin a cos β ± cos a sin β
cos(a ± β) = cos a cos β ∓ sin a sin β
tan(a ± β) = tan a ± tan β / 1 ∓ tan a tan β
cot (a ± β) = cot a cot β ∓ 1 / cot β ± cot a
