sin(theta) = a / c	coc(theta) = 1 / sin(theta) = c / a
cos(theta) = b / c	sec(theta) = 1 / cos(theta) = c / b
tan(theta) = sin(theta) / cos(theta) = a / b	cot(theta) = 1/ tan(theta) = b / a

sin(-x) = -sin(x)
csc(-x) = -csc(x)
cos(-x) = cos(x)
sec(-x) = sec(x)
tan(-x) = -tan(x)
cot(-x) = -cot(x)

sin2(x) + cos2(x) = 1	tan2(x) + 1 = sec2(x)	cot2(x) + 1 = csc2(x)
sin(x y) = sin x cos y cos x sin y
cos(x y) = cos x cosy sin x sin y

tan(x y) = (tan x tan y) / (1  tan x tan y)
sin(2x) = 2 sin x cos x
cos(2x) = cos²(x) - sin²(x) = 2 cos²(x) - 1 = 1 - 2 sin²(x)
tan(2x) = 2 tan(x) / (1 - tan²(x))
sin²(x) = 1/2 - 1/2 cos(2x)
cos²(x) = 1/2 + 1/2 cos(2x)
sin x - sin y = 2 sin( (x - y)/2 ) cos( (x + y)/2 )
cos x - cos y = -2 sin( (x-y)/2 ) sin( (x + y)/2 )
