Use the Half-Angle formulas to determine the exact values of sinx, cosx, and tanx. Given: -17π/2
sin(-17π)=sin(π)=0
cos(-17π)=cos(π)=-1
tan(-17π)=tan(π)=0
..
Identity: sin(x/2)=�√((1-cos(x))/2)
sin(-17π/2)=-√((1-(-1))/2)=-√(2/2)=-√1=-1
..
Identity: cos(x/2)=�√((1+cos(x))/2)
cos(-17π/2)=-√((1+(-1))/2)=-√(0/2)=0
..
Identity: tan(x/2)=(sin(x))/(1+cos(x))
tan(-17π/2)=-1/(1+(-1))=-1/0=undefined
