 FORMULAS FOR REFERENCE

sin( A  B) = sin A cos B  cos A sin B A+ B A− B

sin A + sin B = 2sin cos
2 2
cos( A  B) = cos A cos B sin A sin B
A+ B A− B
tan A  tan B sin A − sin B = 2cos sin
tan( A  B) = 2 2
1 tan A tan B
A+ B A− B
2sin A cos B = sin( A + B) + sin( A − B) cos A + cos B = 2cos cos
2 2
2 cos A cos B = cos( A + B) + cos( A − B) A+ B A− B
cos A − cos B = −2sin sin
2 sin A sin B = cos( A − B) − cos( A + B) 2 2
