Integral Trigonometry Cheat Sheet by

Trigonometric identities and common trigonometric integrals. Note that θ is often interchangeable with x as a variable, excluding trigonometric substitutions. Most important formulas and identities are bolded.

Pythag­orean Identities

sin2(x)+cos2(x)=1
sin2(x)=1-cos2(x)
cos2(x)=1-sin2(x)
 
tan2(x)+1=sec2(x)
tan2(x)=sec2(x)-1
sec2(x)-tan2(x)=1
 
1+cot2(x)=csc2(x)
cot2(x)=csc2(x)-1
csc2(x)-cot2(x)=1
The last two Pythag­orean identities are obtained by dividing all the terms of the original identity by sin²(x) or cos²(x)

Trigon­ometric Substi­tutions

√(a2-x2) = asin(θ)
√(x2-a2) = asec(θ)
√(x2+a2) = atan(θ)

Sum and Difference

sin(x+­y)=­sin­(x)­cos(y) + cos(x)­sin(y)
sin(x-­y)=­sin­(x)­cos(y) - cos(x)­sin(y)
cos(x+­y)=­cos­(x)­cos(y) - cos(x)­sin(y)
cos(x-­y)=­cos­(x)­cos(y) + cos(x)­sin(y)

Basic Trigon­ometric Integrals

∫sin(x)dx
-cos(x)+C
∫cos(x)dx
