2. Mnemonics in trigonometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mnemonics_in_trigonometry

   Signs of trigonometric functions in each quadrant. All Students Take Calculus is a mnemonic for the sign of each trigonometric functions in each quadrant of the plane. The letters ASTC signify which of the trigonometric functions are positive, starting in the top right 1st quadrant and moving counterclockwise through quadrants 2 to 4.

3. List of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_trigonometric...

   In trigonometry, trigonometric identities are equalities that involve trigonometric functions and are true for every value of the occurring variables for which both sides of the equality are defined. Geometrically, these are identities involving certain functions of one or more angles .

4. Trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometric_functions

   Basis of trigonometry: if two right triangles have equal acute angles, they are similar, so their corresponding side lengths are proportional.. In mathematics, the trigonometric functions (also called circular functions, angle functions or goniometric functions) [1] are real functions which relate an angle of a right-angled triangle to ratios of two side lengths.

5. cis (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis_(mathematics)

   The mathematics of trigonometry and exponentials are related but not exactly the same; exponential notation emphasizes the whole, whereas cis x and cos x + i sin x notations emphasize the parts. This can be rhetorically useful to mathematicians and engineers when discussing this function, and further serve as a mnemonic (for cos + i sin ).

6. Outline of trigonometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_trigonometry

   Geometry is used extensively in trigonometry. Angle – the angle is the figure formed by two rays, called the sides of the angle, sharing a common endpoint, called the vertex of the angle. Angles formed by two rays lie in a plane, but this plane does not have to be a Euclidean plane.

7. Quadrant (plane geometry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrant_(plane_geometry)

   Signs of trigonometric functions in each quadrant. In the above graphic, the words in quotation marks are a mnemonic for remembering which three trigonometric functions (sine, cosine, tangent and their reciprocals) are positive in each quadrant. The expression reads "All Science Teachers Crazy" and proceeding counterclockwise from the upper ...

8. Pythagorean trigonometric identity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_trigonometric...

   Similar right triangles illustrating the tangent and secant trigonometric functions Trigonometric functions and their reciprocals on the unit circle. The Pythagorean theorem applied to the blue triangle shows the identity 1 + cot 2 θ = csc 2 θ, and applied to the red triangle shows that 1 + tan 2 θ = sec 2 θ.

9. Sine and cosine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_and_cosine

   In mathematics, sine and cosine are trigonometric functions of an angle.The sine and cosine of an acute angle are defined in the context of a right triangle: for the specified angle, its sine is the ratio of the length of the side that is opposite that angle to the length of the longest side of the triangle (the hypotenuse), and the cosine is the ratio of the length of the adjacent leg to that ...
