  2. Differentiation of trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differentiation_of...

    For example, the derivative of the sine function is written sin ′ (a) = cos(a), meaning that the rate of change of sin(x) at a particular angle x = a is given by the cosine of that angle. All derivatives of circular trigonometric functions can be found from those of sin( x ) and cos( x ) by means of the quotient rule applied to functions such ...

  3. Sine and cosine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_and_cosine

    The derivative of sine is cosine, and the derivative of cosine is negative sine: [16] ⁡ = ⁡ (), ⁡ = ⁡ (). Continuing the process in higher-order derivative results in the repeated same functions; the fourth derivative of a sine is the sine itself. [ 15 ]

  4. Sinc function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinc_function

    The local maxima and minima of the unnormalized sinc correspond to its intersections with the cosine function. That is, ⁠ sin(ξ) / ξ ⁠ = cos(ξ) for all points ξ where the derivative of ⁠ sin(x) / x ⁠ is zero and thus a local extremum is reached.

  5. Trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometric_functions

    If units of degrees are intended, the degree sign must be explicitly shown (sin x°, cos x°, etc.). Using this standard notation, the argument x for the trigonometric functions satisfies the relationship x = (180 x / π )°, so that, for example, sin π = sin 180° when we take x = π .

  6. Pythagorean trigonometric identity - Wikipedia

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

    A calculation confirms that z(0) = 1, and z is a constant so z = 1 for all x, so the Pythagorean identity is established. A similar proof can be completed using power series as above to establish that the sine has as its derivative the cosine, and the cosine has as its derivative the negative sine.

  7. Proofs of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

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

    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 θ < θ. So we have ⁡ < <. For negative values of θ we have, by the symmetry of the sine function

    A new sex trend among college students is getting attention on TikTok − and it has doctors worried. That trend is using honey packets, a controversial supplement marketed for sexual enhancement ...

  9. Small-angle approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-angle_approximation

    Approximately equal behavior of some (trigonometric) functions for x → 0. For small angles, the trigonometric functions sine, cosine, and tangent can be calculated with reasonable accuracy by the following simple approximations:
