  2. List of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

    These identities are useful whenever expressions involving trigonometric functions need to be simplified. An important application is the integration of non-trigonometric functions: a common technique involves first using the substitution rule with a trigonometric function, and then simplifying the resulting integral with a trigonometric identity.

  3. Tangent half-angle substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangent_half-angle...

    Instead of +∞ and −∞, we have only one ∞, at both ends of the real line. That is often appropriate when dealing with rational functions and with trigonometric functions. (This is the one-point compactification of the line.) As x varies, the point (cos x, sin x) winds repeatedly around the unit circle centered at (0, 0). The point

    The following is a list of integrals (antiderivative functions) of trigonometric functions.For antiderivatives involving both exponential and trigonometric functions, see List of integrals of exponential functions.

  5. Trigonometric substitution - Wikipedia

    In this case, an expression involving a radical function is replaced with a trigonometric one. Trigonometric identities may help simplify the answer. [1] [2] Like other methods of integration by substitution, when evaluating a definite integral, it may be simpler to completely deduce the antiderivative before applying the boundaries of integration.

    The sides of this rhombus have length 1. The angle between the horizontal line and the shown diagonal is ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ (a + b).This is a geometric way to prove the particular tangent half-angle formula that says tan ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ (a + b) = (sin a + sin b) / (cos a + cos b).

  7. Trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    Basis of trigonometry: if two right triangles have equal acute angles, they are similar, so their corresponding side lengths are proportional.. In mathematics, the trigonometric functions (also called circular functions, angle functions or goniometric functions) [1] are real functions which relate an angle of a right-angled triangle to ratios of two side lengths.

    Si(x) (blue) and Ci(x) (green) shown on the same plot. Sine integral in the complex plane, plotted with a variant of domain coloring. Cosine integral in the complex plane. Note the branch cut along the negative real axis. In mathematics, trigonometric integrals are a family of nonelementary integrals involving trigonometric functions.

  9. Integration by reduction formulae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integration_by_reduction...

    In integral calculus, integration by reduction formulae is a method relying on recurrence relations. It is used when an expression containing an integer parameter , usually in the form of powers of elementary functions, or products of transcendental functions and polynomials of arbitrary degree , can't be integrated directly.
