Hello Piyush, sin (pi/2 + x) = cos x is a formula Here is how we derive it sin(a+b)=sin acos b +cos asin b sin(π/2+x)=sin(π/2)⋅cos x+cos(π/2) .sin(x) Since, sin(π/2)=1 &c

Answer of this question

Why sin (pi/2 + x ) =cosx

Davneet Singh

Hello Piyush,

sin (pi/2 + x) = cos x is a formula

Here is how we derive it

$sin (a + b) = sin a cos b + cos a sin b$

$sin (\frac{π/}{2} + x) = sin (\frac{π/}{2}) \cdot cos x + cos (\frac{π/}{2}) . sin (x)$

$Since, sin (\frac{π/}{2}) = 1 &$ $cos (\frac{π/}{2}) = 0$

So we have :

$sin (\frac{π/}{2} + x) = cos x$
