# Trigonometry Formulas For Class 11

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics which studies the relationships between angles and lengths of triangles. It is a very important topic of mathematics just like statistics, linear algebra and calculus. In addition to mathematics, it also contributes majorly to engineering, physics, astronomy and architectural design. Trigonometry Formulas for class 11 play a crucial role in solving any problem related to this chapter.

## List of Class 11 Trigonometry Formulas

Here is the list of formulas for Class 11 students as per the NCERT curriculum. All the formulas of trigonometry chapter are provided here for students to help them solve problems quickly.

 Trigonometry Formulas sin(−θ) = −sin θ cos(−θ) = cos θ tan(−θ) = −tan θ cosec(−θ) = −cosecθ sec(−θ) = sec θ cot(−θ) = −cot θ Product to Sum Formulas sin x sin y = 1/2 [cos(x–y) − cos(x+y)] cos x cos y = 1/2[cos(x–y) + cos(x+y)] sin x cos y = 1/2[sin(x+y) + sin(x−y)] cos x sin y = 1/2[sin(x+y) – sin(x−y)] Sum to Product Formulas sin x + sin y = 2 sin [(x+y)/2] cos [(x-y)/2] sin x – sin y = 2 cos [(x+y)/2] sin [(x-y)/2] cos x + cos y = 2 cos [(x+y)/2] cos [(x-y)/2] cos x – cos y = -2 sin [(x+y)/2] sin [(x-y)/2] Identities sin2 A + cos2 A = 1 1+tan2 A = sec2 A 1+cot2 A = cosec2 A

### Basic Trigonometric Formulas for Class 11

cos (A + B) = cos A cos B – sin A sin B

cos (A – B) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B

sin (A+B) = sin A cos B + cos A sin B

sin (A -B) = sin A cos B – cos A sin B

Based on the above addition formulas for sin and cos, we get the following below formulas:

• sin(π/2-A) = cos A
• cos(π/2-A) = sin A
• sin(π-A) = sin A
• cos(π-A) = -cos A
• sin(π+A)=-sin A
• cos(π+A)=-cos A
• sin(2π-A) = -sin A
• cos(2π-A) = cos A

If none of the angles A, B and (A ± B) is an odd multiple of π/2, then

• tan(A+B) = [(tan tan B)/(– tan tan B)]
• tan(A-B) = [(tan A – tan B)/(1 + tan tan B)]

If none of the angles A, B and (A ± B) is a multiple of π, then

• cot(A+B= [(coco− 1)/(cocoA)]
• cot(A-B= [(cocoB + 1)/(coB – coA)]

Some additional formulas for sum and product of angles:

• cos(A+B) cos(A–B)=cos2A–sin2B=cos2B–sin2A
• sin(A+B) sin(A–B) = sin2A–sin2B=cos2B–cos2A
• sinA+sinB = 2 sin (A+B)/2 cos (A-B)/2

Formulas for twice of the angles:

• sin2A = 2sinA cosA = [2tan A /(1+tan2A)]
• cos2A = cos2A–sin2A = 1–2sin2A = 2cos2A–1= [(1-tan2A)/(1+tan2A)]
• tan 2A = (2 tan A)/(1-tan2A)

Formulas for thrice of the angles:

• sin3A = 3sinA – 4sin3A
• cos3A = 4cos3A – 3cosA
• tan3A = [3tanA–tan3A]/[1−3tan2A]

these are not all

Thanks bijus for the list of formulas

12. shaheen

hey how to overcome the fear of phy and chem

1. aakriti singh

try to solve as much questions as you can by yourself, not only for physics chemistry but also for math. you have to deal with it. it looks harder but once you tried to solve you’ll see that these are not much harder. best of luck buddy.

13. Thank you byju’s your list of formula helped me a lot thankx alot

14. Sumanth

Thanks but if u keep derivation it will be so useful to others and they will not have any confusion but thanx for this
