What is the $t$-substitution ($t = …$)??

$$ t = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) $$

What is $\sin\theta$ in terms of $t$??

$$ \sin\theta = \frac{2t}{1 + t^2} $$

What is $\cos\theta$ in terms of $t$??

$$ \cos\theta = \frac{1 + t^2}{1 - t^2} $$

What is $\tan\theta$ in terms of $t$??

$$ \tan\theta = \frac{2t}{1 - t^2} $$

What triangle can you imagine for deriving the $t$-formulae??

What $t$-substitution could you make other than $t = \tan\left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)$ in order to rewrite $\sin 2\theta$??

$$ t = \tan \theta $$

$$ \sin 2\theta = \frac{1 + t^2}{2t} $$

What trick should jump for proving $$\sin^2 2\theta + \cos^2 2\theta = 1$$ with a $t$-substitution??

Using $t = \tan\theta$ rather than $t = \tan\left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)$.

What is in the numerator for the $t$-formulae involving $\cos$ and $\sin$??

$$ 1 + t^2 $$

If $$P(x) = 105 - 20\sin(6x) + 4\cos(12x)$$ and you were asked to make a substitution and find the derivative, what would be easier: taking the derivative and then making the substitution, or doing the substitution and then taking the derivative??

Taking the derivative and then making the substitution.
