in this site.

    The idea is very simple: having given values of the trig functions, you can and you must calculate values of co-functions; 
    then apply the addition or subtraction trigonometric formulas/identities.


    I think it is totally enough to see ONE TIME how to do it.
    After that anyone can solve similar examples on his/(her) own.
