TrigSimplify[ <Expression> ]
Simplifies the given trigonometric Expression.
Examples:
TrigSimplify[1 - sin(x)^2] gives -sin²(x)+1.
TrigSimplify[sin(x)^2 - cos(x)^2 + 1 ] gives 2 sin²(x).

CAS Syntax

TrigSimplify[ <Expression> ]
Simplifies the given trigonometric Expression.
Examples:
TrigSimplify[1 - sin(x)^2] gives cos²(x)
TrigSimplify[sin(x)^2 - cos(x)^2 + 1 ] gives 2 sin²(x).
