Sum and Difference Trig Identities

  sin(A+B)=sinAcosB+cosAsinBsin(AB)=sinAcosBcosAsinBcos(A+B)=cosAcosBsinAsinBcos(AB)=cosAcosB+sinAsinBtan(A+B)=tanA+tanB1tanAtanBtan(AB)=tanAtanB1+tanAtanB1+tan2x=sec2x
Note for sin(A+B) and cos(A+B), Khan Academy has some nice proofs. Notice cosθ=cosθ and sinθ=sinθ. The other identities are not hard to verify.

Euler's Formula

On the other hand, you may never have to memorize these formulas. Here is why. By Euler's formula:
  ei(x+y)=cos(x+y)+isin(x+y)=eixeiy=(cosx+isinx)(cosy+isiny)=(cosxcosysinxsiny)+i(sinxcosy+cosxsiny)
and therefore
  cos(x+y)=cosxcosysinxsinysin(x+y)=sinxcosy+cosxsiny
