How statement and proof provenance work
The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.
- Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
- AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
- AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.
These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.
Parity and the Pythagorean identity for sine and cosine
Statement
For every real , Consequently and .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A real .
For all real , and (The addition formulas for sine and cosine).
The derivative identities and values at zero hold (The derivatives of sine and cosine are cosine and minus sine).
The algebra of derivatives and the zero-derivative theorem hold (Sums, scalar multiples, products and quotients: , , , and when , A function continuous on an interval whose derivative vanishes at every interior point of is constant on ; consequently two such functions with the same derivative differ by a constant).
Differentiability implies continuity (A function differentiable at is continuous at ).
Proof
The derivative of is .
Step 1.1 makes differentiable everywhere, hence continuous by [L4]. The zero-derivative theorem therefore makes constant, and , proving ; each square is then at most .
Applying the addition formulas at gives The coefficient matrix squares to the identity by step 2.1, so these equations give and .
Depends on
- The addition formulas for sine and cosine
- The derivatives of sine and cosine are cosine and minus sine
- Sums, scalar multiples, products and quotients: $(f+g)'(c) = f'(c) + g'(c)$, $(\alpha f)'(c) = \alpha f'(c)$, $(fg)'(c) = f'(c)g(c) + f(c)g'(c)$, and $(f/g)'(c) = \bigl(f'(c)g(c) - f(c)g'(c)\bigr)/g(c)^{2}$ when $g(c) \ne 0$
- A function differentiable at $c$ is continuous at $c$
- A function continuous on an interval $I$ whose derivative vanishes at every interior point of $I$ is constant on $I$; consequently two such functions with the same derivative differ by a constant
