Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that deal with angles, lengths and heights of triangles and
relations between different parts of circles and other geometrical figures. Trigonometric Ratios and
identities are very useful and learning the below formulae help in solving the problems better.
Trigonometry formulas are essential for solving questions in Trigonometry Ratios and Identities in
Competitive Exams.
Trigonometric Ratio - relationship between the measurement of the angles and the length of the side
of the right triangle. These formulas relate lengths and areas of particular circles or triangles. On the
next page you’ll find identities. The identities don’t refer to particular geometric figures but hold for all
angles.
Trigonometry Formulas
Formulas for arcs and sectors of circles
You can easily find both the length of an arc and the area of a sector for an angle θ in a circle of
radius r.
Length of an arc. The length of the arc is just the radius r times the angle θ where the angle is
measured in radians. To convert from degrees to radians, multiply the number of degrees by π/180.
Arc = rθ.
Trigonometric Formulas - Right Angle
The most important formulas for trigonometry are those for a right triangle. If θ is one of the acute
angles in a triangle, then the sine of theta is the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse, the
cosine is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse, and the tangent is the ratio of the opposite
side to the adjacent side

Pythagorean theorem, the well-known geometric theorem that the sum of the squares on the legs of
a right triangle is equal to the square on the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)—or, in
familiar algebraic notation, (P)2 + (B)2 = (H)2
Applying Pythagoras theorem for the given right-angled theorem, we have:
(Perpendicular)2 + (Base)2 = (Hypotenuse)2
⇒ (P)2 + (B)2 = (H)2
The trigonometric properties are given below

Square Law Formulas
Along with the knowledge that the two acute angles are complementary, that is to say, they add to
90°, you can solve any right triangle:
● If you know two of the three sides, you can find the third side and both acute angles.
● If you know one acute angle and one of the three sides, you can find the other acute angle and
the other two sides.
Signs of Trigonometric Ratios
A lot of trigonometry formulas are based on the signs of trigonometric ratios, based on the quadrants
they lie in. Therefore it becomes extremely essential for us to understand how trigonometric ratios get
the positive or negative
sign. The sign is based on the quadrant in which the angle lies.
CBSE Sample Papers NCERT Solutions LearnCBSE.in
Let us assume an angle of θ1 lying in the 1st quadrant and an angle θ in quadrant one and two
combined.
So let us see how signs change with respect to the quadrant they lie in.
● In Q1 all Trigonometric Ratios are positive. (Angles between 00 – 900)
● In Q2 all trigonometric ratios of sinθ and cosecθ are positive. (Angles between 900 – 1800)
● In Q3 all trigonometric ratios of cosθ and secθ are positive. (Angles between 1800 – 2700)
● In Q4 all trigonometric ratios of tanθ and cotθ are positive. (Angles between 2700 – 3600)
θ is the angle made between the x-axis and the line, in the anti-clockwise direction. If we move in the
clockwise direction, the angle will be taken as – θ. We know that in quadrant 4, only cosθ and secθ
will be positive, the others will be negative, therefore-
● Sin (– θ) = - Sin θ
● Cos (– θ) = Cos θ
● Tan (– θ) =- Tan θ
● Sec (– θ) = - Sec θ
● Cot (– θ) = - Cot θ
We need to understand that trigonometric ratios would change for angles- 90o ± θ and 270o ± θ and
they will remain same for 180o ± θ and 360o ± θ. Let’s see what happens when we add or subtract θ
from 90o ± θ and 270o ± θ
● Sec (90o + θ ) = Cos θ
CBSE Sample Papers NCERT Solutions LearnCBSE.in
● Cot (90o - θ ) = Cos θ
● Tan (90o + θ ) = - Cot θ
● Tan (90o - θ ) = Cot θ
● Sec (90o + θ ) = Cosec θ
● Sec (90o + θ ) = Cosec θ
● Sin (270o - θ ) = - Cos θ
● Sin (270o - θ ) = - Cos θ
This is because any angle that is 2700+θ will fall in quadrant 4 and in this quadrant only trigonometric
ratios of cos
and sec are positive. So the above will be negative. 2700-θ will fall in the quadrant 3 and in this
quadrant trigonometric ratios of tan and cot are positive, so it will again be negative. For 180o ± θ and
for 360o ± θ, the signs will remain the same.
● Sin (360o + θ ) = Sin θ
● Sin (360o - θ ) = - Sin θ
For 3600+θ, the angle will complete one full rotation and then lie in quadrant 1 where all trigonometric
ratios are positive. So there are 2 important things to remember-
● The sign of the trigonometric ratios change based on the value of θ.
● sin becomes cos and cos becomes sin for 900+θ and for 2700+θ and it remains the same for
1800+θ
and for 3600+θ.
