    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_trigonometric_values

    A trigonometric number is a number that can be expressed as the sine or cosine of a rational multiple of π radians. [2] Since sin ⁡ ( x ) = cos ⁡ ( x − π / 2 ) , {\displaystyle \sin(x)=\cos(x-\pi /2),} the case of a sine can be omitted from this definition.

    where is the k th-degree elementary symmetric polynomial in the n variables = ⁡, =, …,, and the number of terms in the denominator and the number of factors in the product in the numerator depend on the number of terms in the sum on the left. [16]

  4. Radian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radian

    One radian is defined as the angle at the center of a circle in a plane that subtends an arc whose length equals the radius of the circle. [6] More generally, the magnitude in radians of a subtended angle is equal to the ratio of the arc length to the radius of the circle; that is, =, where θ is the magnitude in radians of the subtended angle, s is arc length, and r is radius.

    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.

    where C is the circumference of a circle, d is the diameter, and r is the radius. More generally, = where L and w are, respectively, the perimeter and the width of any curve of constant width. = where A is the area of a circle. More generally, =

  7. Sine and cosine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_and_cosine

    In mathematics, sine and cosine are trigonometric functions of an angle.The sine and cosine of an acute angle are defined in the context of a right triangle: for the specified angle, its sine is the ratio of the length of the side that is opposite that angle to the length of the longest side of the triangle (the hypotenuse), and the cosine is the ratio of the length of the adjacent leg to that ...

    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 ...
