Twice the area of the purple triangle is the stereographic projection s = tan 1 / 2 ϕ = tanh 1 / 2 ψ. The blue point has coordinates (cosh ψ, sinh ψ). The red point has coordinates (cos ϕ, sin ϕ). The purple point has coordinates (0, s). The integral of the hyperbolic secant function defines the Gudermannian function:
The points labelled 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.
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 principal values of the square roots are both defined, except if z belongs to the real interval (−∞, 1]. If the argument of the logarithm is real, then z is real and has the same sign. Thus, the above formula defines a principal value of arcosh outside the real interval (−∞, 1], which is thus the unique branch cut.
Broyden's method is a generalization of the secant method to more than one dimension. The following graph shows the function f in red and the last secant line in bold blue. In the graph, the x intercept of the secant line seems to be a good approximation of the root of f.
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.
Sec-1, SEC-1, sec-1, or sec −1 may refer to: sec x−1 = sec(x)−1 = exsec(x) or exsecant of x, an old trigonometric function; sec −1 y = sec −1 (y), sometimes interpreted as arcsec(y) or arcsecant of y, the compositional inverse of the trigonometric function secant (see below for ambiguity)
Use Napier's rules to solve the triangle ABD: use c and B to find the sides AD and BD and the angle ∠BAD. Then use Napier's rules to solve the triangle ACD: that is use AD and b to find the side DC and the angles C and ∠DAC. The angle A and side a follow by addition.
