Solution

The trigonometric half angle formulas are:

  1. Sine Half-Angle Formula: sin(x/2) = ± sqrt[(1 - cos(x))/2]

  2. Cosine Half-Angle Formula: cos(x/2) = ± sqrt[(1 + cos(x))/2]

  3. Tangent Half-Angle Formula: tan(x/2) = ± sqrt[(1 - cos(x))/(1 + cos(x))] or tan(x/2) = sin(x)/(1 + cos(x))

The sign (±) depends on the quadrant in which the half angle lies.
