Takeaways

• 😀 Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies the relationships between angles and the sides of triangles.
• 😀 The term 'trigonometry' comes from Greek, where 'trigono' means three angles, and 'metron' means measurement.
• 😀 There are two main units used for measuring angles: degrees (°) and radians (rad), with 360° equivalent to 2π radians.
• 😀 Angles in a coordinate plane are categorized into four quadrants, each having specific angle ranges: Quadrant 1 (0°–90°), Quadrant 2 (90°–180°), Quadrant 3 (180°–270°), and Quadrant 4 (270°–360°).
• 😀 The primary trigonometric ratios are sine (sin), cosine (cos), and tangent (tan), which are based on the sides of a right triangle.
• 😀 The sine of an angle is the ratio of the side opposite the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle (sin = opposite/hypotenuse).
• 😀 The cosine of an angle is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse (cos = adjacent/hypotenuse).
• 😀 The tangent of an angle is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side (tan = opposite/adjacent).
• 😀 Special angle values for trigonometric functions, like 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90°, must be memorized to easily calculate trigonometric values.
• 😀 To compute trigonometric values for special angles, one only needs to memorize the sine values, and the cosine values are simply the reverse of these. Tangent values are derived by dividing sine by cosine.
• 😀 An example problem demonstrates how to find the sine and tangent of angles in a triangle using the Pythagorean theorem and trigonometric ratios.

Q & A

What is the definition of trigonometry?

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies the relationships between the angles and sides of a triangle, particularly right-angled triangles. The term comes from the Greek words 'trigono' (meaning triangle) and 'metron' (meaning measure).

What are the two main units used for measuring angles in trigonometry?

The two main units used to measure angles are degrees and radians. One full rotation of a circle is 360° in degrees, and 2π radians in radians, with π equal to 180°.

How do the four quadrants in the coordinate system relate to the angles?

Angles in the coordinate plane are divided into four quadrants: Quadrant 1 (0° to 90°), Quadrant 2 (90° to 180°), Quadrant 3 (180° to 270°), and Quadrant 4 (270° to 360°). The signs of trigonometric functions differ in each quadrant.

What is the relationship between sine, cosine, and tangent in a right-angled triangle?

In a right-angled triangle, sine (sin) is the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse, cosine (cos) is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse, and tangent (tan) is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side.

What are the mnemonic devices for remembering the trigonometric ratios?

To remember the trigonometric ratios, one can use the mnemonic 'SOH-CAH-TOA': Sine = Opposite/Hypotenuse, Cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse, and Tangent = Opposite/Adjacent.

How do you calculate the trigonometric values for an angle in a triangle?

To calculate the trigonometric values of an angle in a triangle, identify the sides of the triangle relative to the angle in question. For sine, use the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse; for cosine, use the adjacent side over the hypotenuse; and for tangent, use the opposite side over the adjacent side.

What are special angles in trigonometry and why are they important?

Special angles in trigonometry refer to angles like 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90°. These angles have known sine, cosine, and tangent values, and they are important for simplifying calculations in trigonometry.

How do the sine and cosine values relate to each other for special angles?

For special angles, the sine and cosine values are closely related. The cosine values are essentially the reverse of the sine values for the same angles. For example, sin(30°) = 1/2 and cos(30°) = √3/2.

What is the formula for calculating the hypotenuse of a right triangle using the Pythagorean theorem?

The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides (a and b). The formula is: c² = a² + b².

How do you calculate 2 * sin(A) * tan(C) from a triangle's side lengths?

To calculate 2 * sin(A) * tan(C) from a triangle, first calculate sin(A) by dividing the opposite side of angle A by the hypotenuse, and calculate tan(C) by dividing the opposite side of angle C by the adjacent side. Then, multiply these values and double the result.
