The following table shows the conversions for some common angles:
Unless otherwise specied, all angles in this article are
assumed to be in radians, but angles ending in a degree
symbol () are in degrees. Per Nivens theorem multiples
of 30 are the only angles that are a rational multiple of
one degree and also have a rational sin/cos, which may
account for their popularity in examples.[1]

5.1 Symmetry
When the trigonometric functions are reected from certain angles, the result is often one of the other trigonometric functions. This leads to the following identities:
Note that the sign in front of the trig function does not
necessarily indicate the sign of the value. For example,
+ cos does not always mean that cos is positive. In
particular, if = , then + cos = 1 .

gives the sin and cos . The cos line is the hypotenuse

LINEAR COMBINATIONS
(The rst three equalities are trivial; the fourth is the substance of this identity.) Essentially this is Ptolemys theorem adapted to the language of modern trigonometry.
10 Linear combinations
For some purposes it is important to know that any linear combination of sine waves of the same period or frequency but dierent phase shifts is also a sine wave with
the same period or frequency, but a dierent phase shift.
This is useful in sinusoid data tting, because the measured or observed data are linearly related to the a and
b unknowns of the in-phase and quadrature components
basis below, resulting in a simpler Jacobian, compared to
that of c and . In the case of a non-zero linear combination of a sine and cosine wave[27] (which is just a sine
wave with a phase shift of /2), we have
