High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In various applications of trigonometry, it is useful to rewrite the trigonometric functions (such as sine and cosine) in terms of rational functions of a new variable t. These identities are known collectively as the tangent half-angle formulae because of the definition of t. These identities can be useful in calculus for converting rational functions in sine and cosine to functions of t in order to find their antiderivatives. Technically, the existence of the tangent half-angle formulae stems from the fact that the circle is an algebraic curve of genus 0. One then expects that the 'circular functions' should be reducible to rational functions.
