Key Topics to Revise

1

Angles and Radian Measure

  • An angle is formed by rotating a ray about its endpoint.
  • Positive angles are measured in the anticlockwise direction; negative angles in the clockwise direction.
  • One complete revolution equals 360° or 2π radians.
2

Trigonometric Functions and Identities

  • On the unit circle, for any angle θ, sinθ = y-coordinate, cosθ = x-coordinate.
  • tanθ = sinθ/cosθ, defined when cosθ ≠ 0.
  • Signs of trigonometric functions in different quadrants: All positive in I, sin positive in II, tan positive in III, cos positive in IV.
3

Addition and Subtraction Formulas

  • Formulas allow computation of trigonometric functions of sum or difference of angles.
  • These are crucial for deriving multiple angle formulas and solving complex equations.
  • The cosine addition formula is derived geometrically using triangle congruence.
4

Multiple and Submultiple Angles

  • Double angle formulas are special cases of addition formulas with B = A.
  • Triple angle formulas can be derived using addition formulas repeatedly.
  • Half-angle formulas are derived from double angle identities by substitution.
