Why True & False for TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS?

How this format sharpens your conceptual clarity

🔵 Trigonometry is the mathematics of waves, oscillations and rotations — used in physics, engineering and signals.
✅ T/F questions test periodicity, quadrant signs, and compound angle formulas — all frequent CBSE Board question types.
🎯 Watch signs: cos(−θ)=cosθ (TRUE); sin(−θ)=−sinθ (TRUE, odd function).

Key Takeaways — TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS

Core facts for CBSE Boards & JEE

1
sin²θ + cos²θ = 1 — the fundamental Pythagorean identity, always true.
2
Period of sin x and cos x = 2π; period of tan x and cot x = π.
3
sin(−θ) = −sinθ (odd); cos(−θ) = cosθ (even).
4
Range of sin x and cos x = [−1,1]; tan x has range ℝ.
5
sin(A+B) = sinA cosB + cosA sinB — signs matter in subtraction form.
6
cos 2θ has three forms: cos²θ−sin²θ = 1−2sin²θ = 2cos²θ−1.
