    All derivatives of circular trigonometric functions can be found from those of sin(x) and cos(x) by means of the quotient rule applied to functions such as tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x). Knowing these derivatives, the derivatives of the inverse trigonometric functions are found using implicit differentiation.

    The half-angle formula for cosine can be obtained by replacing with / and taking the square-root of both sides: ⁡ (/) = (+ ⁡) /. Sine power-reduction formula: an illustrative diagram. The shaded blue and green triangles, and the red-outlined triangle E B D {\displaystyle EBD} are all right-angled and similar, and all contain the angle θ ...

    Their reciprocals are respectively the cosecant, the secant, and the cotangent functions, which are less used. Each of these six trigonometric functions has a corresponding inverse function , and an analog among the hyperbolic functions .

    The sign of the square root needs to be chosen properly—note that if 2 π is added to θ, the quantities inside the square roots are unchanged, but the left-hand-sides of the equations change sign. Therefore, the correct sign to use depends on the value of θ.

    Domain of cotangent and cosecant : The domains of and are the same. They are the set of all angles θ {\displaystyle \theta } at which sin ⁡ θ ≠ 0 , {\displaystyle \sin \theta \neq 0,} i.e. all real numbers that are not of the form π n {\displaystyle \pi n} for some integer n , {\displaystyle n,}

    The red section on the right, d, is the difference between the lengths of the hypotenuse, H, and the adjacent side, A.As is shown, H and A are almost the same length, meaning cos θ is close to 1 and ⁠ θ 2 / 2 ⁠ helps trim the red away.
