  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    All the values of x begin at the 15 th decimal, so Excel must take them into account. Before calculating the sum 1 + x , Excel first approximates x as a binary number. If this binary version of x is a simple power of 2, the 15 digit decimal approximation to x is stored in the sum, and the top two examples of the figure indicate recovery of x ...

    The red section on the right, d, is the difference between the lengths of the hypotenuse, H, and the adjacent side, A.As is shown, H and A are almost the same length, meaning cos θ is close to 1 and ⁠ θ 2 / 2 ⁠ helps trim the red away.

  5. Exact trigonometric values - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_trigonometric_values

    The trigonometric functions of angles that are multiples of 15°, 18°, or 22.5° have simple algebraic values. These values are listed in the following table for angles from 0° to 45°. [1] In the table below, the label "Undefined" represents a ratio :

  6. Trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometric_functions

    Basis of trigonometry: if two right triangles have equal acute angles, they are similar, so their corresponding side lengths are proportional.. In mathematics, the trigonometric functions (also called circular functions, angle functions or goniometric functions) [1] are real functions which relate an angle of a right-angled triangle to ratios of two side lengths.

  7. Tangent half-angle substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangent_half-angle...

    The tangent half-angle substitution relates an angle to the slope of a line. Introducing a new variable = ⁡, sines and cosines can be expressed as rational functions of , and can be expressed as the product of and a rational function of , as follows: ⁡ = +, ⁡ = +, = +.

  8. Differentiation of trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    We conclude that for 0 < θ < ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ π, the quantity sin(θ)/θ is always less than 1 and always greater than cos(θ). Thus, as θ gets closer to 0, sin(θ)/θ is "squeezed" between a ceiling at height 1 and a floor at height cos θ, which rises towards 1; hence sin(θ)/θ must tend to 1 as θ tends to 0 from the positive side:

    The Illinois algorithm halves the y-value of the retained end point in the next estimate computation when the new y-value (that is, f (c k)) has the same sign as the previous one (f (c k − 1)), meaning that the end point of the previous step will be retained. Hence:
