Why

##\sin (A+B) = \sin A \cos B + \cos A \sin B##

and

##\cos (A+B) = \cos A \cos B - \sin A \sin B##

??

The proof of this should be available in any basic textbook on trigonometry or by a simple search in a search engine. I suggest starting here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proofs_of_trigonometric_identities
