An equation that is true
for all values of the
variables for which every
term of the equation is
defined is called an
identity. Otherwise, the
equation is referred to as
a conditional equation.
An identity is an
equation that is true
for all values of the
variable in the domain
of the equation. An
equation that is not an
identity is called a
conditional equation.

IDENTITY
• It is an equation involving a
trigonometric function or a
combination of trigonometric
functions, which is valid for all
values of the variable for which
the functions are defined.

E •They are verified using the so-
called fundamental identities
that hold for every value of the
angle or real number, for which
the functions involved are
defined.

1. Choose the side of the identity
that appears more complicated.
Then, try to transform it using the
applicable trigonometric identities
into the form identical to the other
side of the identity. If possible,
write the entire equation in terms
of trigonometric function, or in
terms of

with fraction. Combine
them and simplify.

a sum/difference over
the side with a
product.
