Trigonometric Identities

Trigonometric identities are the tools that turn an unmanageable expression into a workable one. This quiz covers the Pythagorean identities, the angle sum and difference formulas, and the three forms of the double angle formula for cosine.

Several questions ask you to simplify rather than recall — the expression is given and you name what it reduces to.

Calculations were checked by hand; one answer key was corrected before publication.
