I.

Then let KOF= A, then IOF= A + 90°. .. (1) becomes cos (A + 90°) = − sin A (2) becomes sin (A + 90°) = + cos A II. Let IOF -- A, then KOF = A − 90°.

327.

.. (1) becomes sin (A - 90°) =

cos A

(2) becomes cos (4 − 90°) = + sin A................

.(6).

These formulæ may be applied to find the ratios of

A 180°, A 270° &c., in terms of ratios of A.

Thus

sin (4+180°) i.e. sin {(A + 90°) +90°} = cos (4 +90°) by (4)

- sin A by (3),

cos (4 + 180°) i.e. cos {(4 + 90°) + 90°} = − sin (A + 90°) by (3) = cos A by (4),

and so on.

328. In the next articles we give the usual proofs of the formulæ for the sine and cosine of the sum and difference of two angles, confining ourselves to positive acute angles.
