14-3 Identities
You can use trigonometric identities to simplify
trigonometric expressions. Recall that an
identity is a mathematical statement that is
true for all values of the variables for which the
statement is defined.

Example 3: Physics Application
At what angle will a wooden block on a concrete
incline start to move if the coefficient of friction
is 0.62?
Set the expression for the weight component
equal to the expression for the force of friction.
mg sinθ = μmg cosθ
Holt Algebra 2
sinθ = μcosθ
Divide both sides by mg.
sinθ = 0.62 cosθ
Substitute 0.62 for μ.

Example 3 Continued
Divide both sides by cos θ.
tanθ = 0.62
θ = 32°
Ratio identity.
Evaluate inverse tangent.
The wooden block will start to move when
the concrete incline is raised to an angle of
about 32°.
