The line segment ¯ has length and sum of the lengths of ¯ and ¯ equals the length of ¯, which is 1. Therefore, cos 2 θ + 2 sin 2 θ = 1 {\displaystyle \cos 2\theta +2\sin ^{2}\theta =1} .
[1] In his 1821 book Cours d'analyse , Augustin-Louis Cauchy discussed variable quantities, infinitesimals and limits, and defined continuity of y = f ( x ) {\displaystyle y=f(x)} by saying that an infinitesimal change in x necessarily produces an infinitesimal change in y , while Grabiner claims that he used a rigorous epsilon-delta definition ...
If is expressed in radians: = = These limits both follow from the continuity of sin and cos. =. [7] [8] Or, in general, =, for a not equal to 0. = =, for b not equal to 0.
For the sine function, we can handle other values. If θ > π /2, then θ > 1. But sin θ ≤ 1 (because of the Pythagorean identity), so sin θ < θ. So we have < <. For negative values of θ we have, by the symmetry of the sine function
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.
On the other hand, if X is the domain of a function f(x) and if the limit as n approaches infinity of f(x n) is L for every arbitrary sequence of points {x n} in X − x 0 which converges to x 0, then the limit of the function f(x) as x approaches x 0 is equal to L. [10]

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} .
