  2. List of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

    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

  3. Exact trigonometric values - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_trigonometric_values

    In an equilateral triangle, the 3 angles are equal and sum to 180°, therefore each corner angle is 60°. Bisecting one corner, the special right triangle with angles 30-60-90 is obtained. By symmetry, the bisected side is half of the side of the equilateral triangle, so one concludes sin ⁡ ( 30 ∘ ) = 1 / 2 {\displaystyle \sin(30^{\circ ...

    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 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. Euler's formula - Wikipedia

    Substituting r(cos θ + i sin θ) for e ix and equating real and imaginary parts in this formula gives ⁠ dr / dx ⁠ = 0 and ⁠ dθ / dx ⁠ = 1. Thus, r is a constant, and θ is x + C for some constant C. The initial values r(0) = 1 and θ(0) = 0 come from e 0i = 1, giving r = 1 and θ = x.

  8. List of mathematical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_constants

    A mathematical constant is a key number whose value is fixed by an unambiguous definition, often referred to by a symbol (e.g., an alphabet letter), or by mathematicians' names to facilitate using it across multiple mathematical problems. [1]

  9. Sinc function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinc_function

    It is an interpolating function, i.e., sinc(0) = 1, and sinc(k) = 0 for nonzero integer k. The functions x k (t) = sinc(t − k) (k integer) form an orthonormal basis for bandlimited functions in the function space L 2 (R), with highest angular frequency ω H = π (that is, highest cycle frequency f H = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠).
