e jx - e - jx
sin( x) =

cos( x y ) = cos( x) cos( y ) m sin( x) sin( y )
sin( x y ) = sin( x) cos( y ) cos( x) sin( y )
cos(2 x) = cos 2 ( x) - sin 2 ( x)
sin( 2 x) = 2 sin( x) cos( x)
2 cos2 ( x) = 1 + cos(2 x)
2 sin 2 ( x) = 1 - cos(2 x)
cos 2 ( x) + sin 2 ( x) = 1
2 cos( x) cos( y ) = cos( x - y ) + cos( x + y )
2 sin( x) sin( y ) = cos( x - y ) - cos( x + y )
2 sin( x) cos( y ) = sin( x - y ) + sin( x + y )
