    The letters ASTC signify which of the trigonometric functions are positive, starting in the top right 1st quadrant and moving counterclockwise through quadrants 2 to 4. [5] Quadrant 1 (angles from 0 to 90 degrees, or 0 to π/2 radians): All trigonometric functions are positive in this quadrant.

  6. Law of tangents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_tangents

    In trigonometry, the law of tangents or tangent rule [1] is a statement about the relationship between the tangents of two angles of a triangle and the lengths of the opposing sides. In Figure 1, a , b , and c are the lengths of the three sides of the triangle, and α , β , and γ are the angles opposite those three respective sides.

  8. Trigonometric tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometric_tables

    c 0 = 1 s 0 = 0 c n+1 = w r c n − w i s n s n+1 = w i c n + w r s n. for n = 0, ..., N − 1, where w r = cos(2π/N) and w i = sin(2π/N). These two starting trigonometric values are usually computed using existing library functions (but could also be found e.g. by employing Newton's method in the complex plane to solve for the primitive root ...
