What Class 11 Maths Chapter 3 Trigonometric Functions Covers

The chapter begins with the measurement of angles in degrees and radians, defines the six trigonometric functions on the unit circle, and then derives the identities for sums and differences of angles. The official NCERT sections are listed below.

Section Topic
3.1Introduction
3.2Angles
3.3Trigonometric Functions
3.4Trigonometric Functions of Sum and Difference of Two Angles

Key Concepts You Will Study

Students should read the chapter with a pen and note each identity as it appears. The formulas are many, but they follow from a few base results.

  • The link between degree and radian measure and the arc-length relation l = rθ.
  • The six trigonometric functions defined on the unit circle and their signs.
  • The domain, range and period of sin, cos, tan and their graphs.
  • Sum and difference identities for sin(x ± y) and cos(x ± y).
  • Double, triple and product-to-sum formulas built from them.

Why Download the NCERT Book PDF for This Chapter

The NCERT textbook is the single most important source for the CBSE exam, and most JEE and CUET questions from this chapter are built directly on its identities and examples.

  • Every Board question on identities and equations comes from this text or its exercises.
  • The worked examples show the correct order of applying the identities.
  • Reading offline from the PDF avoids missing any small sign or condition.

How to Use the NCERT Book PDF for Trigonometric Functions

Read the chapter once fully, then work through it a second time with the exercises open. A short, ordered plan keeps the many identities from blurring together.

  • Read each section, then write its identity in your own words in a single line.
  • Learn the unit-circle signs before you memorise any formula.
  • Solve the in-text examples before looking at the given solution.
  • Attempt the back exercises, then check them against the NCERT Solutions below.
