2. Mnemonics in trigonometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mnemonics_in_trigonometry

   Trigonometric identities mnemonic. Another mnemonic permits all of the basic identities to be read off quickly. The hexagonal chart can be constructed with a little thought: [10] Draw three triangles pointing down, touching at a single point. This resembles a fallout shelter trefoil. Write a 1 in the middle where the three triangles touch

3. Word problem (mathematics education) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_problem_(mathematics...

   Word problem from the Līlāvatī (12th century), with its English translation and solution. In science education, a word problem is a mathematical exercise (such as in a textbook, worksheet, or exam) where significant background information on the problem is presented in ordinary language rather than in mathematical notation.

4. Exercise (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   An artificially produced word problem is a genre of exercise intended to keep mathematics relevant. Stephen Leacock described this type: [1] The student of arithmetic who has mastered the first four rules of his art and successfully striven with sums and fractions finds himself confronted by an unbroken expanse of questions known as problems ...

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. Trigonometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometry

   Trigonometry (from Ancient Greek τρίγωνον (trígōnon) 'triangle' and μέτρον (métron) 'measure') [1] is a branch of mathematics concerned with relationships between angles and side lengths of triangles.

7. List of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

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

   These identities are useful whenever expressions involving trigonometric functions need to be simplified. 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.
