Abstract: In the paper, by induction, the Fa`a di Bruno formula, and some techniques in the theory of complex functions, the author finds explicit formulas for higher order derivatives of the tangent and cotangent functions as well as powers of the sine and cosine functions, obtains explicit formulas for two Bell polynomials of the second kind for successive derivatives of sine and cosine functions, presents curious identities for the sine function, discovers explicit formulas and recurrence relations for the tangent numbers, the Bernoulli numbers, the Genocchi numbers, special values of the Euler polynomials at zero, and special values of the Riemann zeta function at even numbers, and comments on five different forms of higher order derivatives for the tangent function and on derivative polynomials of the tangent, cotangent, secant, cosecant, hyperbolic tangent, and hyperbolic cotangent functions.
