Chapter ten/ two

Chapter 10 section 2 is about plugging into one side of the formula when given an another one. They have many different formulas that you will need to learn in order to figure out the problems. Also you will need to know how to find the reference angle and also you will once again need to know your trig chart.

FORMULAS:
tan(alpha+beta)= tanalpha+tanbeta/1-tanalphatanbeta
tan(alpha- beta)= tanalpha-tanbeta/1+tanalphatanbeta

*cot is the reciprocal
i.e. cot(alpha+beta)=1-cotalphacotbeta/cotalpha+cotbeta
ect...

EXAMPLE:
simplify
tan90-tan60/1+tan90tan60
tan(90-60)
tan(30)
answer:squareroot(3)/3

This is how you do section ten dash two. have a great new year :)
