  2. Proofs of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proofs_of_trigonometric...

    This geometric argument relies on definitions of arc length and area, which act as assumptions, so it is rather a condition imposed in construction of trigonometric functions than a provable property. [2] For the sine function, we can handle other values. If θ > π /2, then θ > 1. But sin θ ≤ 1 (because of the Pythagorean identity), so sin ...

    In contrast, by the Lindemann–Weierstrass theorem, the sine or cosine of any non-zero algebraic number is always transcendental. [4] The real part of any root of unity is a trigonometric number. By Niven's theorem, the only rational trigonometric numbers are 0, 1, −1, 1/2, and −1/2. [5]

    In this right triangle, denoting the measure of angle BAC as A: sin A = ⁠ a / c ⁠; cos A = ⁠ b / c ⁠; tan A = ⁠ a / b ⁠. Plot of the six trigonometric functions, the unit circle, and a line for the angle θ = 0.7 radians. The points labeled 1, Sec(θ), Csc(θ) represent the length of the line segment from the origin to that point.

  7. Small-angle approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-angle_approximation

    There are a number of ways to demonstrate the validity of the small-angle approximations. The most direct method is to truncate the Maclaurin series for each of the trigonometric functions. Depending on the order of the approximation , cos ⁡ θ {\displaystyle \textstyle \cos \theta } is approximated as either 1 {\displaystyle 1} or as 11 ...

    Crawley has struggled in this series with scores of 0, 1, 17 and 8 and Sunday’s opening partnership was England’s largest of the series after previous stands of 12, 9, 9 and 1.

  9. Branch point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_point

    As z moves along a circle of radius 1 centered at 0, w = ln(z) goes from 0 to 2 π i. In trigonometry, since tan(π /4) and tan (5 π /4) are both equal to 1, the two numbers π /4 and 5 π /4 are among the multiple values of arctan(1). The imaginary units i and −i are branch points of the arctangent function arctan(z) = (1/2i)log[(i − z ...
