A formula for computing the trigonometric identities for the one-third angle exists, but it requires finding the zeroes of the cubic equation 4x 3 − 3x + d = 0, where is the value of the cosine function at the one-third angle and d is the known value of the cosine function at the full angle.
For example, for the square root, the principal value is defined as the square root that has a positive real part. This defines a single valued analytic function, which is defined everywhere, except for non-positive real values of the variables (where the two square roots have a zero real part).
The two figures below show 3D views of respectively atan2(y, x) and arctan( y / x ) over a region of the plane. Note that for atan2(y, x), rays in the X/Y-plane emanating from the origin have constant values, but for arctan( y / x ) lines in the X/Y-plane passing through the origin have constant
For example, the sine of angle θ is defined as being the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the hypotenuse. The six trigonometric functions are defined for every real number , except, for some of them, for angles that differ from 0 by a multiple of the right angle (90°).
A Riemann surface for the argument of the relation tan z = x. The orange sheet in the middle is the principal sheet representing arctan x. The blue sheet above and green sheet below are displaced by 2π and −2π respectively. Since the inverse trigonometric functions are analytic functions, they can be extended from the real line to the ...
English: A Riemann surface for the argument of the Tan[z]=x function in the complex plane of x. The orange sheet is the principal sheet representing ArcTan(x), blue and green are displaced by 2 π and -2 π respectively.
In mathematics, the arctangent series, traditionally called Gregory's series, is the Taylor series expansion at the origin of the arctangent function: [1] = + + = = + +. This series converges in the complex disk | |, except for = (where =).
The tangent half-angle substitution relates an angle to the slope of a line. Introducing a new variable = , sines and cosines can be expressed as rational functions of , and can be expressed as the product of and a rational function of , as follows: = +, = +, = +.
