Sum and Difference Identities Classify each statement as true or false, then explain your reasoning.
1) sin(90) = sin(90) + sin(0) 3) sin(30) + sin(60) = sin(90)
2) cos(90) = cos(90) + cos(0) 4) tan(45) + tan(45) = tan(90)
From these examples, recognize that the distributive property does NOT apply when using the trigonometric functions.
…So what rules do apply?

R and S are rotation angles (between 0 and 90) whose terminal sides
intersect the unit circle at (725 ,
2425 ) and (
35 ,
45 ), respectively.
15) Write down the sine, cosine and tangent values for each angle.
sin R = 24/25 cos R = 7/25 tan R = 24/7
sin S = 4/5 cos S = 3/5 tan S = 4/3
16) With a calculator in degree mode, solve for the measures of R and S. Then use these values to estimate R+S and RS.R = 73.74 R+S = 126.87
S = 53.13 RS = 20.61
17) Use the sum and difference identities to find the exact values for the trigonometric functions for R+S and RS.sin(R−S )= sinR cosS cosR sinS sin(R+S )= sinR cosS + cosR sinS
cos (R−S )= cosR cosS + sinR sinS cos (R+S )= cosR cosS sinR sinS
18) How can the answers to #16 be used to check the answers to #17 (using a calculator)?sin(126.87) 0.8 = 4/5. cos(126.87) -0.6 = -3/5. sin(20.61) 0.352 = 44/125. cos(20.61) 0.936 = 117/125. More exact values could be found using the store key for angles R and S, i.e. sin-1(24/25) ENTER 73.73979529 STO ALPHA R and do the same for S, then use sin(R + S).
