  2. Bhāskara I's sine approximation formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhāskara_I's_sine...

    The constants a, b, c, p, q and r (only five of them are independent) can be determined by assuming that the formula must be exactly valid when x = 0, π/6, π/2, π, and further assuming that it has to satisfy the property that sin(x) = sin(π − x). [2] [3] This procedure produces the formula expressed using radian measure of angles.

  3. Sine and cosine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_and_cosine

    The parameter of each is a floating point value, specifying the angle in radians. Each function returns the same data type as it accepts. Many other trigonometric functions are also defined in math.h, such as for cosine, arc sine, and hyperbolic sine (sinh). Similarly, Python defines math.sin(x) and math.cos(x) within the built-in math module.

  4. Euler's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_formula

    r = | z | = √ x 2 + y 2 is the magnitude of z and; φ = arg z = atan2(y, x). φ is the argument of z, i.e., the angle between the x axis and the vector z measured counterclockwise in radians, which is defined up to addition of 2π. Many texts write φ = tan −1 ⁠ y / x ⁠ instead of φ = atan2(y, x), but the first equation needs ...

  5. Euler's identity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_identity

    Euler's identity is a special case of Euler's formula, which states that for any real number x, e i x = cos ⁡ x + i sinx {\displaystyle e^{ix}=\cos x+i\sin x} where the inputs of the trigonometric functions sine and cosine are given in radians .

  6. Sinc function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinc_function

    The sinc function as audio, at 2000 Hz (±1.5 seconds around zero) In mathematics, the historical unnormalized sinc function is defined for x ≠ 0 by ⁡ = ⁡.. Alternatively, the unnormalized sinc function is often called the sampling function, indicated as Sa(x).

  7. Law of sines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_sines

    In trigonometry, the law of sines, sine law, sine formula, or sine rule is an equation relating the lengths of the sides of any triangle to the sines of its angles. According to the law, ⁡ = ⁡ = ⁡ =, where a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides of a triangle, and α, β, and γ are the opposite angles (see figure 2), while R is the radius of the triangle's circumcircle.

  8. Solid angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_angle

    This gives the expected results of 4 π steradians for the 3D sphere bounded by a surface of area 4πr 2 and 2 π radians for the 2D circle bounded by a circumference of length 2πr. It also gives the slightly less obvious 2 for the 1D case, in which the origin-centered 1D "sphere" is the interval [− r , r ] and this is bounded by two ...
