More Trig Identities

This section covers longer identity proofs on Paper 2. You still only have the quotient $\tan\theta=\dfrac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}$ (where $\cos\theta\neq 0$ ), the square $\sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta=1$ , and $1+\tan^2\theta=\dfrac{1}{\cos^2\theta}$ . An identity is true for every
