Tips for proving trigonometric identities:
1. You want to make the left and right hand sides of the identities
match by substitution and cancellation.
2. Work with the more complicated side of the identity.
3. Begin by writing all expressions in terms of sine and/or
cosine.
4. If there is a squared term, check to see if you can use one of
the Pythagorean identities. If so, use it to replace the squared
term.
5. You are finished when the left hand side of the identity
EXACTLY matches the right side. You can not move a term
from one side to the other side.
Handout
Before we do some identities, lets practice substituting and cancelling.
Write each expression as a single function or a constant.
