  • 0:01 - 0:06
    There are 6 addition formula.
    I'm not going to prove them.
  • 0:06 - 0:10
    But I am going to do is start
    with one of them.
  • 0:10 - 0:12
    And derive a second one.
  • 0:13 - 0:17
    Then I'm going to take another
    one is given and derive a second
  • 0:17 - 0:22
    one from that, and then we're
    going to use those four to help
  • 0:22 - 0:27
    us derive the final two. So this
    is the one we're going to start
  • 0:27 - 0:31
    with. The sign of a
  • 0:31 - 0:36
    plus B. This is where they get
    their name from addition formula
  • 0:36 - 0:41
    because here we have a sub and
    we're going to find it sign.
  • 0:41 - 0:48
    This breaks down.
    Assign a Cosby
  • 0:49 - 0:52
    Plus calls a
  • 0:52 - 0:58
    sign be. Notice in terms
    of remembering it, we keep the
  • 0:58 - 1:03
    A&B in the same order and the
    signs and the cosines alternate.
  • 1:04 - 1:11
    So what about the
    sign of a minus
  • 1:11 - 1:18
    B? Well, I just have
    a think about this minus B.
  • 1:19 - 1:26
    It can be the sign
    of a plus minus B.
  • 1:27 - 1:31
    And now. The formula that we
  • 1:31 - 1:36
    had here. Can be exactly the
    same As for this one.
  • 1:37 - 1:40
    But in this one we can replace
  • 1:40 - 1:48
    B. By minus be
    so let's do that sign.
  • 1:48 - 1:54
    A. Calls
    of minus B.
  • 1:55 - 1:59
    Plus calls a.
  • 1:59 - 2:02
    Sign of minus
  • 2:02 - 2:09
    B. Well, the
    sign is OK.
  • 2:09 - 2:14
    And the cause of minus B is
    just cause big.
  • 2:17 - 2:23
    The cause a is OK, but the sign
    of minus B is minus sign B, so
  • 2:23 - 2:29
    that's going to change that plus
    sign into a minus sign and I can
  • 2:29 - 2:32
    just write sign be at the end.
  • 2:33 - 2:36
    So that's the second.
  • 2:37 - 2:41
    Of our addition
  • 2:41 - 2:47
    formula. If we've got these
    for sign, it seemed reasonable
  • 2:47 - 2:52
    to expect that will have the
    same things for cause for
  • 2:52 - 2:57
    cosine, so let's have a look
    cause of A+B.
  • 2:57 - 3:04
    Well, this is cause a
    caused B minus sign, a
  • 3:04 - 3:11
    sign be and that's our
    starting one. So let's do
  • 3:11 - 3:17
    the same as we did
    here cause of A-B.
  • 3:18 - 3:26
    Will rewrite the minus B
    as a plus minus B.
  • 3:26 - 3:33
    And then we can replace the bees
    in here in this first formula
  • 3:33 - 3:37
    with the minus be there so will
    have cause a.
  • 3:38 - 3:41
    Cause of minus B.
  • 3:42 - 3:49
    Minus sign, a sign
    of minus B.
  • 3:51 - 3:58
    Now the cause of minus B is
    just cause be, so we have caused
  • 3:58 - 4:00
    a caused B.
  • 4:01 - 4:07
    And then we have minus sign a
    Times by sign of minus B.
  • 4:08 - 4:13
    But the sign of minus B is a
    minus sign be, so we have two
  • 4:13 - 4:17
    minus signs together, giving us
    a plus sign plus sign a.
  • 4:18 - 4:20
    Sign be.
  • 4:21 - 4:27
    So we've now got 4 addition
    formula. Let me turn over and
  • 4:27 - 4:30
    write those down as a group.
  • 4:31 - 4:35
    Sign of A+B?
  • 4:36 - 4:38
    Is sign a?
  • 4:38 - 4:45
    Call speedy close calls
    a sign be.
  • 4:46 - 4:50
    Sign of a minus
    B.
  • 4:51 - 4:58
    Is sign a
    Cosby minus cause
  • 4:58 - 5:01
    a sign be?
  • 5:01 - 5:05
    Cause of
  • 5:05 - 5:11
    A+B? Is cause
    a calls B?
  • 5:11 - 5:15
    Minus sign a
  • 5:15 - 5:22
    sign B. The
    cause of A-B is
  • 5:22 - 5:30
    cause a caused B
    plus sign a sign.
  • 5:31 - 5:33
    So there are our four.
  • 5:34 - 5:39
    Addition formula. Now we did
    promise 6 but these are the fall
  • 5:39 - 5:43
    really basic ones. And really
    these are the four that you've
  • 5:43 - 5:44
    got to learn.
  • 5:44 - 5:48
    The other two will presumably
  • 5:48 - 5:51
    be. Tangent tan of
  • 5:51 - 5:58
    A+B? Well, we
    can derive these from the
  • 5:58 - 6:06
    others. Tan is sign over
    cause so we have the
  • 6:06 - 6:13
    sign of A+B divided by
    the cost of A+B.
  • 6:14 - 6:19
    So we can now make the
    replacement for sign of A+B by
  • 6:19 - 6:20
    its expansion here.
  • 6:21 - 6:26
    And cause of A+B by
    its expansion here?
  • 6:26 - 6:29
    Sign a caused
  • 6:29 - 6:33
    B. Close calls a
  • 6:33 - 6:38
    sign be. All
    over.
  • 6:40 - 6:44
    Calls a calls B.
  • 6:44 - 6:47
    Minus. Sign a
  • 6:47 - 6:54
    sign be. Now this looks
    very unwieldy and it would be
  • 6:54 - 6:59
    nice if in the same way that
    this is in terms of signs and
  • 6:59 - 7:04
    causes and this ones in terms of
    signs and causes. I could have
  • 7:04 - 7:08
    tan of A+B somehow in terms of
    tangent and possibly cotangent,
  • 7:08 - 7:13
    but certainly I want to have
    some tangents in there. So what
  • 7:13 - 7:17
    can I do? Well, look at this
    term here cause a Cosby.
  • 7:18 - 7:24
    Supposing I divided everything
    by that term cause a Cosby.
  • 7:25 - 7:29
    Well, that would give me one
    here and I'd have this over
  • 7:29 - 7:34
    cause A cause be of course I'd
    have sign over cause sign over
  • 7:34 - 7:39
    cause for each of A&B so I have
    tan a tan be there.
  • 7:40 - 7:47
    Would I get anything nice on the
    top? Well, let's write it down
  • 7:47 - 7:54
    in full. So we're
    going to divide
  • 7:54 - 7:58
    everything by calls
  • 7:58 - 8:05
    a Cosby. And
    I have to divide
  • 8:05 - 8:09
    everything by this because
  • 8:09 - 8:15
    I've got. A pair of
    equal signs here a balance. So
  • 8:15 - 8:21
    what I do to one side I must do
    the other. I must do everything
  • 8:21 - 8:24
    to all of the terms to preserve
  • 8:24 - 8:31
    the equality. Now that looks
    absolutely awful. Absolutely
  • 8:31 - 8:37
    massive algebra. So
    how can we
  • 8:37 - 8:43
    make it any
    simpler? Well, let's
  • 8:43 - 8:49
    just go back
    to the denominator
  • 8:49 - 8:52
    here. This bottom
  • 8:52 - 9:00
    term. Cause a over cause
    a cancels down Cosby over. Cosby
  • 9:00 - 9:03
    cancels down. This is just one.
  • 9:04 - 9:10
    Sinai over 'cause I is Tanay and
    sign be over. Cosby is tan be.
  • 9:11 - 9:13
    So this is just tan a tan B.
  • 9:14 - 9:19
    Have a look at this. Well,
    there's a common factor on top
  • 9:19 - 9:25
    and bottom here of Cosby. I can
    cancel that out. Leaves me with
  • 9:25 - 9:28
    sign a over cause a tan a.
  • 9:28 - 9:32
    Here the causes go out.
  • 9:33 - 9:40
    Sign be over. Cosby
    leaves me with Tan
  • 9:40 - 9:43
    B so. What we end
  • 9:43 - 9:50
    up with. Turn of
    A+B is 10A.
  • 9:51 - 9:55
    Plus 10B.
  • 9:56 - 10:02
    All over 1
    - 10 a
  • 10:02 - 10:03
    10B.
  • 10:05 - 10:10
    Now we can do the same
    again for tan.
  • 10:11 - 10:18
    All A-B and we've got two ways
    of approaching it, first of all.
  • 10:18 - 10:24
    We could work through this again
    X set with tan of A-B is the
  • 10:24 - 10:27
    sign of a minus B over the cause
  • 10:27 - 10:30
    of A-B. Or we could work through
  • 10:30 - 10:36
    it again. By making the same
    replacement as we did before,
  • 10:36 - 10:41
    and rewriting this as the time
    of A plus minus B.
  • 10:43 - 10:51
    Let's be assured that what it is
    going to give us, which ever way
  • 10:51 - 10:52
    we do it.
  • 10:57 - 11:03
    Is going
    to be
  • 11:03 - 11:08
    that. And So what we've got now
    our our six.
  • 11:09 - 11:10
    Addition formula.
  • 11:11 - 11:17
    Sign of A+B sign of A-B cause of
    A+B cause of A-B. These are the
  • 11:17 - 11:22
    ones you must know and learn
    from those four you can derive
  • 11:22 - 11:27
    these. It's a help if you know
    them. If you can learn them. The
  • 11:27 - 11:32
    important thing is to be able to
    recognize them when you see them
  • 11:32 - 11:34
    and recognize when you need to
  • 11:34 - 11:40
    use them. Let's have a look at
    three fairly typical examples of
  • 11:40 - 11:45
    the use of these. In many ways,
    it's practiced that we're
  • 11:45 - 11:49
    getting at recognizing these
    particular formula, 'cause we
  • 11:49 - 11:53
    may need them more often when
    we're doing other, more
  • 11:53 - 11:57
    complicated manipulations. So
    first of all, let's have a look
  • 11:57 - 11:59
    at this particular problem.
  • 11:59 - 12:03
    If we know that sign of
  • 12:03 - 12:06
    A. Is 3/5.
  • 12:07 - 12:09
    And that the cause.
  • 12:09 - 12:13
    Of B is 5
  • 12:13 - 12:20
    thirteenths. Then
    What's the sign
  • 12:20 - 12:23
    of A+B?
  • 12:24 - 12:28
    What's the cause
  • 12:28 - 12:35
    of A-B?
    OK.
  • 12:36 - 12:41
    We've got sign a but we don't
    know anything about cause a
  • 12:41 - 12:44
    seemingly. We've got Cosby.
  • 12:45 - 12:47
    And we really don't know
    anything about sign be.
  • 12:50 - 12:55
    We don't know much about A and
    be really because a could be
  • 12:55 - 13:01
    either an obtuse angle or an
    acute angle. So we really need a
  • 13:01 - 13:06
    little bit more information. So
    let's say that A&B are acute.
  • 13:06 - 13:10
    In alerts that both less than 90
  • 13:10 - 13:14
    degrees. Well, if the boat less
    than 90 degrees, one of the
  • 13:14 - 13:16
    things we can do is represent
  • 13:16 - 13:21
    the angle. And the sign with a
    right angle triangle. So I just
  • 13:21 - 13:23
    have a look at that.
  • 13:24 - 13:28
    Right angle triangle.
  • 13:28 - 13:34
    Right angle there the angle a
    sign a is 3/5 opposite over
  • 13:34 - 13:41
    hypotenuse, so that's three. The
    side opposite the angle A and
  • 13:41 - 13:47
    that's five the hypotenuse which
    is always opposite the right
  • 13:47 - 13:50
    angle, always the longest side.
  • 13:50 - 13:56
    Pythagoras tells us that this
    other side has to be 4.
  • 13:58 - 14:02
    And so now that we know the
    adjacent side, we know
  • 14:02 - 14:06
    everything about angle a. We
    know it sign, we know it's
  • 14:06 - 14:09
    cosine and if we want we can
    find its tangent.
  • 14:11 - 14:12
    Let's do the same.
  • 14:12 - 14:14
    The angle be.
  • 14:16 - 14:22
    Here is the angle be in its
    right angle triangle and were
  • 14:22 - 14:26
    told that Cosby is 5 over 13.
  • 14:27 - 14:32
    Cosine is adjacent over
    hypotenuse. This is the side
  • 14:32 - 14:37
    that's adjacent, so there's
    five. This is the hypotenuse,
  • 14:37 - 14:43
    the longest side, the side
    opposite the right angle, so
  • 14:43 - 14:50
    that's 30. So using Pythagoras
    theorem, this side is 12.
  • 14:50 - 14:55
    Now notice I said using
    Pythagoras Theorem, but it was
  • 14:55 - 15:00
    as though I knew these three
    455-1213. I do know them and
  • 15:00 - 15:05
    you've got to get to know them
    as well. Pythagorean triples,
  • 15:05 - 15:07
    simple triples of integers,
  • 15:07 - 15:11
    whole numbers. That a Bay,
    Pythagoras's theorem if you have
  • 15:11 - 15:17
    them at your fingertips, can we
    call them easy? Easily? You find
  • 15:17 - 15:21
    this so much better in working
    in trigonometry 'cause these
  • 15:21 - 15:27
    numbers are used an awful lot.
    OK, then, let's have a look at
  • 15:27 - 15:32
    what we can do. Sign of A+B? The
    addition formula tells us they
  • 15:32 - 15:35
    sign a. Cause B.
  • 15:36 - 15:40
    Close calls a sign
  • 15:40 - 15:47
    be. Equals.
    Sign a we know is 3/5.
  • 15:48 - 15:55
    Times, Cosby, and we know
    that one. It's five thirteenths
  • 15:55 - 16:02
    Plus cause a we can
    read cause a off here
  • 16:02 - 16:09
    it's adjacent over hypotenuse so
    it's 4 over 5.
  • 16:09 - 16:16
    Times by sign B and we
    can read, sign be off this
  • 16:16 - 16:21
    triangle it's opposite over
    hypotenuse 12 over 13.
  • 16:22 - 16:29
    Do the arithmetic 3 fives
    are 15 and five 1365,
  • 16:29 - 16:36
    so that's 15 over 65
    + 4 twelve 48.
  • 16:37 - 16:44
    And 5:13's again are 65 and
    so that gives me a fraction
  • 16:44 - 16:46
    63 over 65.
  • 16:47 - 16:50
    We had cause of
  • 16:50 - 16:56
    A-B. So let's approach that in
    exactly the same way.
  • 16:57 - 17:00
    Will quote our
    expansion. Our
  • 17:00 - 17:05
    addition formula cause
    of a Cosby.
  • 17:06 - 17:09
    Plus sign of a sign
  • 17:09 - 17:17
    of B. Substitute our
    values cause a That's four
  • 17:17 - 17:21
    over 5 adjacent over hypotenuse.
  • 17:22 - 17:29
    Times, Cosby. That's five
    over 13, adjacent over
  • 17:29 - 17:30
    hypotenuse.
  • 17:31 - 17:38
    Plus sign a That's opposite
    over hypotenuse, three over 5.
  • 17:39 - 17:45
    Times by sign B.
    That's 12 over 13,
  • 17:45 - 17:48
    opposite over hypotenuse.
  • 17:49 - 17:54
    Now here we've got some
    fractions and it might be
  • 17:54 - 17:59
    tempting to cancel the fives
    here. Five goals, five goes, but
  • 17:59 - 18:06
    five times by 13 is the 65 and
    five times by 13 is the 65 to
  • 18:06 - 18:08
    have the same denominator.
  • 18:08 - 18:16
    So I'm not going to cancel.
    4 fives are 20 over five
  • 18:16 - 18:18
    1365. Plus
  • 18:19 - 18:24
    Three twelves
    are 36 over that
  • 18:24 - 18:30
    65 again giving
    me 56 over 65.
  • 18:31 - 18:35
    So that's one way in which these
    can be used.
  • 18:36 - 18:38
    Let's have a look at another
  • 18:38 - 18:44
    way. Supposing we were asked to
    find what's sign 75, but no
  • 18:44 - 18:50
    don't reach for your Calculator,
    you've got to workout sign 75 as
  • 18:50 - 18:55
    an expression, not as a set of
    decimals, but as an expression.
  • 18:55 - 19:02
    What we've got to think about is
    how can we make 75 from angles
  • 19:02 - 19:05
    who sign and cosine's? We know
  • 19:05 - 19:12
    very well. Well, 45
    + 30 gives us
  • 19:12 - 19:20
    75. I'm 45 and 30
    are two of the angles that
  • 19:20 - 19:26
    we know sines and cosines for
    exact sines and cosines.
  • 19:27 - 19:34
    So this would be sign
    of 45 cause of 30.
  • 19:35 - 19:43
    Close calls of
    45. Sign of
  • 19:43 - 19:51
    30. Sign 45
    that's one over Route
  • 19:51 - 19:58
    2. Times by cost 30
    will cost 30 is Route 3
  • 19:58 - 19:59
    over 2.
  • 20:00 - 20:05
    Plus cause of 45 is one
    over Route 2.
  • 20:06 - 20:12
    Times by sign of 30, which
    is just a half.
  • 20:13 - 20:19
    So we have Route 3. That's one
    times by Route 3 over 2 Route 2.
  • 20:20 - 20:27
    Plus one over and again two
    times route 2 is 2 Route 2.
  • 20:27 - 20:32
    We've got the same denominator,
    so 2 Route 2.
  • 20:32 - 20:39
    To Route 2 and on the
    top Route 3 + 1.
  • 20:40 - 20:44
    Now leave not won't like that we
    might try and get rid of this
  • 20:44 - 20:48
    Route 2 in the denominator, but
    just for the moment, let's leave
  • 20:48 - 20:52
    it like that. There's nothing to
    be gained by doing it at this
  • 20:52 - 20:54
    stage, and let's take another
  • 20:54 - 20:57
    example. Let's have a look.
  • 20:57 - 21:04
    An 50 What we
    need to be able to do is to find
  • 21:04 - 21:07
    15 in terms of angles that we
    know lots of things about.
  • 21:09 - 21:11
    And of course.
  • 21:12 - 21:18
    One of the ways of doing this,
    but only one is to do 60 - 45.
  • 21:20 - 21:26
    So that means that we need the
    addition formula that's to do
  • 21:26 - 21:33
    with tangent and the one that's
    to do with the tan of A-B.
  • 21:33 - 21:36
    So this is 1060 - 1045.
  • 21:37 - 21:44
    Over 1
    + 10
  • 21:44 - 21:51
    sixty 10:45.
    So now let's put the numerical
  • 21:51 - 21:58
    values in. Now the tangent of 60
    is Route 3 and the tangent of
  • 21:58 - 22:00
    45 is one.
  • 22:00 - 22:06
    Over. One plus
    Route 3.
  • 22:07 - 22:10
    Times by one.
  • 22:10 - 22:18
    So we'll have root 3 - 1
    over Route 3 times by one is
  • 22:18 - 22:19
    just Route 3.
  • 22:20 - 22:27
    Plus one. Now that's
    all right, and it's correct.
  • 22:28 - 22:32
    Doesn't look very nice and we
    tend to have a tradition of not
  • 22:32 - 22:36
    leaving things like root 3 plus
    one in the denominator.
  • 22:36 - 22:40
    So one of the ways of tidying
  • 22:40 - 22:47
    that up. Is to multiply top
    and bottom of this fraction by
  • 22:47 - 22:48
    the same thing?
  • 22:49 - 22:55
    Multiplying top and bottom by
    the same thing keeps it the same
  • 22:55 - 23:00
    value, but what should we
    multiply it by? Well, I'm going
  • 23:00 - 23:03
    to choose to multiply by Route 3
  • 23:03 - 23:10
    - 1. Not be cause that's what's
    in the numerator there, but
  • 23:10 - 23:17
    because this is the difference
    of two squares A+B, A-B and
  • 23:17 - 23:23
    A+B times by A-B, let's just
    write that down up here.
  • 23:23 - 23:27
    Is A squared minus B
  • 23:27 - 23:34
    squared? So that means that
    on the bottom I have Route 3
  • 23:34 - 23:37
    times by Route 3A squared.
  • 23:38 - 23:43
    Which is just three minus B
    squared. B was just one, so
  • 23:43 - 23:50
    that's just minus one and 3 - 1
    is 2 and integer not absurd. Not
  • 23:50 - 23:55
    one of these things with a
    square root sign attached to it.
  • 23:55 - 24:01
    What have we got on top? We two
    brackets that we're multiplying
  • 24:01 - 24:08
    together route 3 by Route 3 is
    3, route 3 by minus one is minus
  • 24:08 - 24:15
    Route 3. 1 by minus one
    by Route 3 is minus Route 3
  • 24:15 - 24:18
    and minus one with minus one is
  • 24:18 - 24:25
    plus one. 3 plus One is 4 -
    2 RT. Threes were taking away
  • 24:25 - 24:31
    all over 2 and now there's a
    common factor of 2 on the top
  • 24:31 - 24:38
    and on the bottom 2 into 4 goes
    to an two into minus 2. Route 3
  • 24:38 - 24:40
    goes minus Route 3.
  • 24:40 - 24:45
    And two into two goes wall, so
    we needn't worry about that one.
  • 24:45 - 24:49
    So there we've got a second
    example to add to the first one
  • 24:49 - 24:52
    that we did. Let's take one more
  • 24:52 - 24:58
    type. Of example, where we can
    make you solve the addition
  • 24:58 - 25:04
    formula and this is where we get
    to simplify an expression. So
  • 25:04 - 25:09
    supposing we've got the sign of
    90 plus A.
  • 25:10 - 25:16
    Could we have this simpler?
    Could we just have, say, sign a
  • 25:16 - 25:21
    or minus sign a or cause a or
    something like that? Does it
  • 25:21 - 25:28
    have to be 90 plus a? Well,
    let's have a look. It's sign of
  • 25:28 - 25:31
    90. Calls of
  • 25:31 - 25:38
    a. Plus the
    cause of 90
  • 25:38 - 25:41
    sign of A.
  • 25:42 - 25:44
    Sign 90 is one.
  • 25:45 - 25:51
    Cause I just cause I so first of
    all we have one times cause a
  • 25:51 - 25:53
    which is just cause a.
  • 25:54 - 25:56
    But cause of 90.
  • 25:56 - 26:03
    Is 0. Times by sign a
    well, anything times by zero is
  • 26:03 - 26:07
    0 so we just left with cause a.
  • 26:08 - 26:15
    So an expression such a sign
    of 90 plus a reducers tool
  • 26:15 - 26:22
    cause a what about something
    like the cosine of 180 minus
  • 26:22 - 26:29
    a? Well, this
    is cause 180
  • 26:29 - 26:34
    cause a.
    Plus sign
  • 26:34 - 26:37
    180 sign
  • 26:37 - 26:44
    a. The cosine of
    180. That's minus one, so minus
  • 26:44 - 26:52
    one times by cause a is minus
    cause a sign of 180 zero and
  • 26:52 - 26:59
    sign is just sign a but zero
    times by anything is 0.
  • 26:59 - 27:06
    So we're just left with minus
    calls a so we can see that these
  • 27:06 - 27:11
    addition formula help us to very
    quickly simplify and get in
  • 27:11 - 27:13
    terms of this angle a.
  • 27:14 - 27:16
    Possibly quite complicated
  • 27:16 - 27:23
    expressions. But the basic thing
    is that these 6 addition
  • 27:23 - 27:29
    formula. Again, I stress it. You
    have to learn you have to know.
  • 27:29 - 27:33
    But most importantly, you've got
    to recognize them and recognize
  • 27:33 - 27:38
    their use when you see them and
    when you see the situation.
