    A formula for computing the trigonometric identities for the one-third angle exists, but it requires finding the zeroes of the cubic equation 4x 3 − 3x + d = 0, where is the value of the cosine function at the one-third angle and d is the known value of the cosine function at the full angle.

    The sign of the square root needs to be chosen properly—note that if 2 π is added to θ, the quantities inside the square roots are unchanged, but the left-hand-sides of the equations change sign. Therefore, the correct sign to use depends on the value of θ.

    Similar right triangles illustrating the tangent and secant trigonometric functions Trigonometric functions and their reciprocals on the unit circle. The Pythagorean theorem applied to the blue triangle shows the identity 1 + cot 2 θ = csc 2 θ, and applied to the red triangle shows that 1 + tan 2 θ = sec 2 θ.

    The sum of the squares of the two items at the top of a triangle equals the square of the item at the bottom. These are the trigonometric Pythagorean identities : sin 2 ⁡ A + cos 2 ⁡ A = 1 2 = 1 {\displaystyle \sin ^{2}A+\cos ^{2}A=1^{2}=1\ }

    The points labeled 1, Sec(θ), Csc(θ) represent the length of the line segment from the origin to that point. Sin(θ), Tan(θ), and 1 are the heights to the line starting from the x-axis, while Cos(θ), 1, and Cot(θ) are lengths along the x-axis starting from the origin.

    As discussed in § Constructibility, only certain angles that are rational multiples of radians have trigonometric values that can be expressed with square roots. The angle 1°, being / = / radians, has a repeated factor of 3 in the denominator and therefore ⁡ cannot be expressed using only square roots. A related question is whether it can ...

    The fixed point iteration x n+1 = cos(x n) with initial value x 0 = −1 converges to the Dottie number. Zero is the only real fixed point of the sine function; in other words the only intersection of the sine function and the identity function is sin ⁡ ( 0 ) = 0 {\displaystyle \sin(0)=0} .
