5 days ago · The three main trigonometric functions— sine, cosine, and tangent—describe these relationships. Sine (sin) is the ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the hypotenuse. Cosine (cos) is the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the length of the hypotenuse.
17 hours ago · An important application is the integration of non-trigonometric functions: a common technique involves first using the substitution rule with a trigonometric function, and then simplifying the resulting integral with a trigonometric identity.
3 days ago · The trigonometric double angle formulas give a relationship between the basic trigonometric functions applied to twice an angle in terms of trigonometric functions of the angle itself. Tips for remembering the following formulas: We can substitute the values \ ( (2x)\) into the sum formulas for \ (\sin\) and \ (\cos.\)
5 days ago · Before jumping to the word problems, here are the basic definitions you need to be familiar with: The angle of elevation of an object as seen by an observer is the angle between the horizontal and the line from the object to the observer's eye (also known as the line of sight ).
5 days ago · In the geometrical proof of the addition formulae we are assuming that α, β and (α + β) are positive acute angles. But these formulae are true for any positive or negative values of α and β. Now we will prove that, sin (α + β) = sin α cos β + cos α sin β; where α and β are positive acute angles and α + β < 90°.

5 days ago · The Law of Cosines is a trigonometric formula used to find the lengths of sides in non-right triangles, relating the square of a side to the sum of the squares of the other two sides minus twice the product of their lengths and the cosine of the included angle.
