3 Circular functions Objectives To understand the reciprocal circular functions cosec, sec and cot To understand and apply the identities sec2 = 1 + tan2 and cosec2 = 1 + cot2 To understand and apply the compound angle formulas To understand and apply the double angle formulas To understand the restricted circular functions and their inverses sin−1 , cos−1 and tan−1 To understand the graphs of the inverse functions sin−1 , cos−1 and tan−1 To solve equations involving circular functions
The sine, cosine and tangent functions are discussed in some detail in section 1.1. Several new circular functions are introduced in this chapter.
3.1
The reciprocal circular functions The cosecant function, y = cosec The cosecant function is defined as: 1 provided sin = 0 cosec = sin Since sin = 0 when = n, n ∈ Z, the domain of cosec = R \ { : = n, n ∈ Z}. The graph of cosec is derived from the graph of sin . The range of sin is [−1, 1] therefore the range of cosec is R \ (−1, 1). The graph of y = sin has turning points at = + n, n ∈ Z as does the graph of 2 y = cosec . sin = 0 at = n, n ∈ Z. These values of will be vertical asymptotes for y = cosec . A sketch of the graph of f : R \ { : = n, n ∈ Z} → R, f () = cosec is shown below. The graph of y = sin is shown on the same set of axes.

Two new identities It was shown earlier that, for all values of x, sin2 x + cos2 x = 1. From this identity the following identities can be derived: 1 + cot2 x = cosec2 x 1 + tan2 x = sec2 x
provided sin x = 0 provided cos x = 0
The first of these identities is obtained by dividing each term of the original identity by sin2 x: sin2 x cos2 x 1 i.e. + = 2 2 sin x sin x sin2 x 2 which implies 1 + cot x = cosec2 x The derivation of the second identity is left as an exercise for the reader.

Compound and double angle formulas Compound angle formulas The following identities are called the compound angle formulas. cos(x − y) = cos x cos y + sin x sin y cos(x + y) = cos x cos y − sin x sin y sin(x − y) = sin x cos y − cos x sin y sin(x + y) = sin x cos y + cos x sin y tan x − tan y tan(x − y) = 1 + tan x tan y tan x + tan y tan(x + y) = 1 − tan x tan y A proof of the first identity is given below and the other identities can be derived from that result.

These formulas can be derived from the compound angle formulas by substituting y for x: cos(x + y) = cos x cos y − sin x sin y cos(x + x) = cos x cos x − sin x sin x cos 2x = cos2 x − sin2 x
∴
The two other equivalent forms of cos 2x can be obtained by applying the Pythagorean identity sin2 x + cos2 x = 1 e.g.

Inverses of circular functions All six circular functions discussed earlier are periodic and are, therefore, many-to-one functions. The inverse of these functions cannot, therefore, be functions. However, by restricting the domain so that the circular functions are one-to-one functions, the inverse circular functions can be defined.

cos−1 x is defined in a similar way to the inverse sine function. The standard domain of the restricted cosine function is [0, ], although other intervals would also produce an inverse function. cos−1 x, the inverse function of the restricted cosine function, is defined as follows: cos−1 : [−1, 1] → R, cos−1 x = y where cos y = x, y ∈ [0, ] The graph of the restricted cosine function, its reflection in the line y = x to produce y = cos−1 x, and the graph of y = cos−1 x are shown in the three figures below.
