In the Angle Addition Identities post it was shown that $ \displaystyle \sin(x+y) = \sin x \cos y + \sin y \cos x $ and $ \displaystyle \cos(x+y) = \cos x \cos y – \sin x \sin y $. These identities are valid if $\sin \theta \equiv \frac{opp}{hyp}$ and $\cos \theta \equiv \frac{adj}{hyp}$, which implies that $\theta…
