      @blackpenredpen hi. Would you have any interest in making a video explaining how Wang computers used a lookup table of a few logarithms to compute functions in their calculator from the 1960s?
      Asianometry made a video about Dr. Wang and his company but didn't discuss the maths.

    Use of Euler formula :
    exp(i*(a+b)) = cos(a+b) + i*sin(a+b) (1)
    exp(i*(a+b)) = exp(i*a)*exp(i*b) = (cos(a) + i*sin(a))*(cos(b) + i*sin(b)) --->
    exp(i*(a+b)) = cos(a)*cos(b) + cos(a)*i*sin(b) + i*sin(a)*cos(b) + i*sin(a)*i*sin(b)
    exp(i*(a+b)) = cos(a)*cos(b) - sin(a)*sin(b) + i*((cos(a)*sin(b) + sin(a)*cos(b)) (2)
    By equating the real parts and the imaginary parts of (1) and (2) ---->
    cos(a+b) = cos(a)*cos(b) - sin(a)*sin(b)
    sin(a+b) = cos(a)*sin(b) + sin(a)*cos(b)

      I see circular reasoning here.
      To proof the complex-exponential formulas for trigonometric functions, you need to know their Taylor expansions.
      To know the Taylor expansions, You need to know, what the derivatives of sin and cos are.
      To know the derivatives, you need to know at least the sin of the sum formula.

      The formula is derivated from Taylor expansion of exp(i*x) and separation of the serie into 2 series composing the real part and imaginary part by grouping the terms with i.
      The real part corresponds to cos(x) and imaginary part to sin(x) --->
      exp(i*x) = cos(x) + i*sin(x)

      You can do it by starting with a unit vector at alpha to the x-axis. The x coordinate is cos(alpha) and the y coordinate is sin(alpha). Now rotate the vector through beta degrees. The new x and y coordinates are cos(alpha +beta) and sin(alpha+beta). These coordinates can easily be calculated.

    The two angle-sum formulas have an extremely familiar form to me, having dealt a lot with applying 2D rotation to a 2D vector, which results in an extremely similar formula (the x of the result being the sum of the original vector components multiplied by cos and sin, and the y of the result being the subtraction of the components multiplied by sin and cos).
    It's probably not a coincidence, but I can't immediately see the connection.

      It makes the math easy with 1. You could make it any arbitrary number and only add a few steps to make the value cancel out.

    Once it has been proven for alpha and beta between 0 and pi/2 (with
    alpha + beta = pi/2), it then holds for all complex alpha and beta. This is a consequence of the identity theorem in complex analysis

    This would be the way Euclid or Pythagoras would use to prove this trig identity.

    My teacher showed me this proof and told after that it is not valid for all alpha as alpha and beta can be larger then pi/2 then he told me that only circle one is valid
