The statement is “ The trigonometric function for the sum of two angles is not equal to the trigonometric function of the first angle plus trigonometry function of the second angle.” i.e. in a mathematical way, we can say
$\mathrm{sin}\left(A+B\right)\ne \mathrm{sin}\left(A\right)+\mathrm{sin}\left(B\right)$
$\mathrm{cos}\left(A+B\right)\ne \mathrm{cos}\left(A\right)+\mathrm{cos}\left(B\right)$
$\mathrm{tan}\left(A+B\right)\ne \mathrm{tan}\left(A\right)+\mathrm{tan}\left(B\right)$
The statement is True.
Since the formulas for the trigonometric function of the sum of two angles are
$\mathrm{sin}\left(A+B\right)=\mathrm{sin}\left(A\right)\mathrm{cos}\left(B\right)+\mathrm{cos}\left(A\right)\mathrm{sin}\left(B\right)$
$\mathrm{cos}\left(A+B\right)=\mathrm{cos}\left(A\right)\mathrm{cos}\left(B\right)+\mathrm{sin}\left(A\right)\mathrm{sin}\left(B\right)$
$\mathrm{tan}\left(A+B\right)=\frac{\mathrm{tan}\left(A\right)+\mathrm{tan}\left(B\right)}{1-\mathrm{tan}\left(A\right)\mathrm{tan}\left(B\right)}$
Hence generally the trigonometric function for the sum of two angles is not equal to the trigonometric function of the first angle plus trigonometry function of the second angle.
