Category: 3. Trigonometric Functions

The angle θ is an acute angle (θ < 90°) and is measured with reference to the positive x-axis, in the anticlockwise direction. Further, these trig functions have different numeric signs (+ or -) in the different quadrants, which are based on the positive or negative axis of the quadrant. The trigonometric functions of Sinθ,…

We have certain formulas to find the values of the trig functions using the sides of a right-angled triangle. To write these formulas, we use the abbreviated form of these functions. Sine is written as sin, cosine is written as cos, tangent is denoted by tan, secant is denoted by sec, cosecant is abbreviated as…

There are six basic trigonometric functions used in Trigonometry. These functions are trigonometric ratios. The six basic trigonometric functions are sine function, cosine function, secant function, co-secant function, tangent function, and co-tangent function. The trigonometric functions and identities are the ratio of sides of a right-angled triangle. The sides of a right triangle are the perpendicular side, hypotenuse, and base, which are…

Trigonometric functions are the basic six functions that have a domain input value as an angle of a right triangle, and a numeric answer as the range. The trigonometric function (also called the ‘trig function’) of f(x) = sinθ has a domain, which is the angle θ given in degrees or radians, and a range of…
