Trigonometric identitiesUse the Pythagorean identity
Use sin²A + cos²A = 1. Each answer is a fraction in lowest terms.
The Pythagorean identity, sin²θ + cos²θ = 1, ties the two main ratios of an angle together: know one and the other is fixed. These free printable worksheets give one ratio of an acute angle and ask for the other, exact as a fraction.
If they get stuck

The answer key prints on a separate page.
Every question is built off a Pythagorean triple, so knowing sin A = 3/5 gives cos A = 4/5 exactly — a clean fraction, not a decimal. The work is recognizing the triple and reading off the side that is left, which is the identity doing what Pythagoras does on the triangle behind it.
It needs no calculator, so the page prints and the answers stay exact. The step-by-step walk states the identity first and then applies it, because the point is seeing that one ratio determines the other rather than grinding an arithmetic routine.
