    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sines

    Sines (Portuguese pronunciation: ⓘ) is a town and a municipality in Portugal. The municipality, divided into two parishes, has around 14,214 inhabitants (2021) in an area of 203.30 km 2 (78.49 sq mi). Sines holds an important oil refinery and several petrochemical industries. [2]

  3. 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 ...

  4. 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.

    Genetic structure of human and murine LINE1 and SINEs. Short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) are non-autonomous, non-coding transposable elements (TEs) that are about 100 to 700 base pairs in length. [1] They are a class of retrotransposons, DNA elements that amplify themselves throughout eukaryotic genomes, often through RNA intermediates.

    The half-angle formula for sine can be obtained by replacing with / and taking the square-root of both sides: ⁡ (/) = (⁡) /. Note that this figure also illustrates, in the vertical line segment E B ¯ {\displaystyle {\overline {EB}}} , that sin ⁡ 2 θ = 2 sin ⁡ θ cos ⁡ θ {\displaystyle \sin 2\theta =2\sin \theta \cos \theta } .

  7. Trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometric_functions

    The sine and the cosine functions, for example, are used to describe simple harmonic motion, which models many natural phenomena, such as the movement of a mass attached to a spring and, for small angles, the pendular motion of a mass hanging by a string. The sine and cosine functions are one-dimensional projections of uniform circular motion.

    Fig. 1a – Sine and cosine of an angle θ defined using the unit circle Indication of the sign and amount of key angles according to rotation direction Trigonometric ratios can also be represented using the unit circle , which is the circle of radius 1 centered at the origin in the plane. [ 37 ]

  9. Exact trigonometric values - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_trigonometric_values

    A geometric way of deriving the sine or cosine of 45° is by considering an isosceles right triangle with leg length 1. Since two of the angles in an isosceles triangle are equal, if the remaining angle is 90° for a right triangle, then the two equal angles are each 45°.
