Definition of Angle
Trigonometry is a branch of geometry that studies the relationship of triangles. Take a
simplest triangle – a right-angled triangle as example:
In plane geometry, the range of angle is 0° to 360°. However, this is not enough for practical
use. For example, a clock rotates more than 360°. It is necessary for us to redefine what is
angle.
A
b
c
θ
B
a
C
If we fix point B and C (the value of a), and vary the size of ∠BCA (value of θ), the value
of b and c also changes. Actually, the value c/b is a function of θ. Trigonometry defined the
function “sine” (正弦) as followed:
c
sin θ =
b
Similarly, there are also five other functions – cosine (餘弦), tangent (正切), cotangent (餘
切), secant (正割) and cosecant (餘割), together called the trigonometric functions (三角
函數):
a
c
a
b
b
cosθ = , tan θ = , cot θ = , secθ = , cscθ =

c

c
For practical use, only sine, cosine and tangent are more useful.
In trigonometry, we interpret angle as rotation of rays (射線). When a ray OA rotates about O
to the position OB, the amount of rotation is defined as the angle AOB and is denoted by
∠AOB . The angle is positive if it is rotated anti-clockwise, and is negative if is rotated
clockwise.

C
Respecting to θ, the side opposite to it is called the “opposite” (對邊), the one which is
longest is called “hypotenuse” (斜邊), and the one next to θ is called “adjacent” (鄰邊).

Base on the “new” definition of angle, we also have a more generalized definition of
trigonometric functions.

of a circle, and the radius of the circle. Or in formula,

The following angle has a size of 1 radian.
In a coordinate plane, take a point P (x, y). Let r denotes the distance from this point (P) to
the origin O (0, 0). (So r = x + y .) Let θ be the angle from the x-axis to OP.

The output ranges of some trigonometric functions are constrained:

Any angles can actually transformed into angles within range of 0° to 90° when dealing with

Double angle formulae (倍角公式
倍角公式)
倍角公式
Compound Angle Formulae (複角公式
複角公式)
複角公式
Replacing B with A, and use “+” for the “+” signs, we get the double angle formulae:
sin 2 A = 2sin A cos A
We often encounter expressions like sin(A + B) or cos(A – B). If A is a multiple of π/2, then
we can use the transformation formulae. But it’s not that easy. Fortunately, there are general
expressions of the trigonometric functions of sum or differences of angles.
sin ( A ± B ) = sin A cos B ± cos A sin B
cos 2 A = cos 2 A − sin 2 A
tan 2 A =
cos ( A ± B ) = cos A cos B ∓ sin A sin B
cot 2 A − 1
2cot A
For cosine, if we replace either cos2 A by 1 – sin2 A or sin2 A by 1 – cos2 A, we get two other
forms of double angle formulae for cosine:
cos 2A = 1 – 2 sin2 A = 2 cos2 A – 1
cot 2 A =
tan A ± tan B
tan ( A ± B ) =
1 ∓ tan A tan B
cot A cot B ∓ 1
cot ( A ± B ) =
cot A ± cot B
These are called the “Compound Angle Formulae”. The first three formulae should be
memorized.
Triple angle formulae (三倍角公式
三倍角公式)

Example: Express tan 15° in surd form (根式) (with root signs)
Notice that tan 15° = tan (60° - 45°). Therefore,
tan15° = tan ( 60° − 45° )
Again, using compound angle formulae, we get the triple angle formulae:
sin 3 A = 3sin A − 4sin 3 A
cos3 A = 4cos3 A − 3cos A
The triple angle formulae can also be:
tan 60° − tan 45°
1 + tan 60° tan 45°

Subsidiary angle form
Product and Sum of Sine and Cosine
Product-to-sum and sum-to-product mainly deal with sum or difference of two sines or
cosines. The subsidiary angle form is much difference. It changes expression in form of
a sin θ + b cosθ to r cos(θ – α).
Suppose r cos (θ − α ) = a sin θ + b cosθ . By expanding the left-hand-side, comparing
When solving trigonometric equations, we often come across with products or sums of sine
and cosine, which we may not be able to do easily. The product-to-sum formulae,
sum-to-product formulae and subsidiary angle form help us to tackle them.
