Trigonometric functions double angle Formulas are: 1. 2.

sin 2 = 2 sin cos

cos 2 = cos 2 sin 2 2tg 3. tg 2 = 1 tg 2 ctg 2 1 4. ctg 2 = 2ctg

b) cos 2 =

Proofs: a) sin 2 =

2tg 1 + tg 2

sin 2 = sin cos =

sin 2 =

sin cos 2 sin cos = = ( common and up and down cos 2 )= 2 2 1 sin + cos 2 sin cos 2 2tg 2tg cos = 2 = 2 sin tg + 1 1 + tg 2 + 1 cos 2 cos 2

b)

sin 2 cos 2 1 cos 2 1 + tg 2 1 tg 2 = = = , 2 sin tg 2 + 1 1 + tg 2 2 cos cos 2 + 1

c) sin 3 = 3 sin 4 sin 3

sin 3 = sin( 2 + ) Use the formula sin(2 + ) = sin 2 cos + cos 2 sin Now the formula for double angle = (2 sin cos ) cos + (cos 2 sin 2 ) sin
= 2 sin cos 2 + sin cos 2 sin 3 = 3 sin cos 2 sin 3 (from sin 2 + cos 2 = 1 is cos 2 = 1 sin 2 ) = 3 sin (1 sin 2 ) sin 3

= 3 sin 3 sin 3 sin 3 = 3 sin 4 sin 3

2) We have: cos = Solution:

4 . Find the value of double angles, if is in the fourth quarter. 5

First, we calculate sin :

sin 2 + cos 2 = 1 sin 2 = 1 cos 2 4 sin = 1 5 16 sin 2 = 1 25 9 sin 2 = 25 9 sin = 25 3 sin = 5
2 2

As the angle is from IV quarter . We'll take that sin =

3 5

sin 2 = 2 sin cos 3 4 = 2 5 5 24 = 25 cos 2 = cos 2 sin 2 7 4 3 16 9 = = = 25 25 25 5 5 24 sin 2 24 tg 2 = = 25 = 7 cos 2 7 25

3) We have sin =0,6 and is in I quarter. Find the value of double angles. Solution:
sin 2 = 2 sin cos

sin 2 + cos 2 = 1 cos 2 = 1 sin 2 cos 2 = 1 (0,6) 2 cos 2 = 1 0,36 cos = 0,64

2 sin 2 + cos 2 = 2 sin 2 + cos 2 sin 2 = sin 2 + cos 2 = 1

b) cos 4 + sin 4 = 1 0,5 sin 2

To prove this ,start from: sin 2 + cos 2 = 1 / all the square sin 4 + 2 sin 2 cos 2 + cos 4 = 1 sin 4 + cos 4 = 1 sin 2 cos 2 4 sin 2 cos 2 2 1 sin 4 + cos 4 = 1 sin 2 2 4 4 sin + cos = 1 0,5 sin 2 2 sin 4 + cos 4 = 1

6) Prove identity:

cos 4 + 4 cos 2 + 3 = 8 cos 4

Proof: We will go from left, to prove right side.

cos 4 + 4 cos 2 + 3 = 8 cos 4 cos 4 + 4 cos 2 + 3 = cos 2 (2 ) + 4(cos 2 sin 2 ) + 3 = cos 2 (2 ) son 2 (2 ) + 4 cos 2 4 sin 2 + 3 = (cos 2 sin 2 ) 2 (2 sin cos ) 2 + 4 cos 2 4 sin 2 = (cos 2 (1 cos 2 )) 2 4 sin 2 cos 2 + 4 cos 2 4 sin 2 + 3 = (2 cos 2 1) 2 4 cos 2 (1 cos 2 ) + 4 cos 2 4(1 cos 2 ) + 3 = 4 cos 4 4 cos 2 + 1 4 cos 2 + 4 cos 4 + 4 cos 2 4 + 4 cos 2 + 3 = = 8 cos 4

8) Introduce tg 3 as function of tg

Solution:

tg 3 = tg (2 + ) =

tg 2 + tg = 1 + tg 2 tg

2tg + tg (1 tg 2 ) 2tg + tg 1 tg 2 1 tg 2 = = 2tg 1 tg 2 + 2tg 2 1 + tg 1 tg 2 1 tg 2 = 2tg + tg tg 3 3tg tg 3 = 1 + tg 2 1 + tg 2
