Trigonometry

Trigonometry is a field of mathematics. It is the study of triangles. Trigonometry includes planar trigonometry, spherical trigonometry, finding unknown values in triangles, trigonometric functions, and trigonometric function graphs.

How do you draw a complete angle?

You draw a single ray and label it twice: once for the incoming ray and again for the outgoing ray.

What are the different forms in which you can use the word tangent?

Please don't change the subject to the weather or your journey home yesterday. I do not want you going off in tangents when we are discussing trigonometric ratios such as tangents.

What is the measurement of angle B in the triangle when the hypotenuse is 13 the opposite side is 12 and the adjacent side is 5?

You have not indicated which side the angle is opposite of. Can us law of cosines then by calling sides c and a.

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2(a)(c) cos(B)

I would arbitrarily have to assign values you have not given me.

What is principle value in trigonometry?

The trigonometric functions: sine, cosine, tan as well as their reciprocals are periodic so that their value repeats every 2Ï€ radians. As a result, the inverse operations are functions only over restricted domains, as follows.

Sine : −π/2 ≤ y ≤ π/2

Cosine: 0 ≤ y ≤ π

Tangent: −π/2 < y < π/2

The principal value is the angle that lies within the relevant range. All other solutions are non-principal.

Similarly, the principal square root of a positive real number is the positive square root. The negative root is not the principal root.

What is the co-secant of 90 degrees?

cosecant = 1/sine

csc 90 deg = 1/(sin 90 deg)

= 1/1

= 1

What is the relationship between the degree and the number of roots counting multiplicities?

In the complex field, the two numbers are the same.

If you restrict yourself to real solutions, the relationship is as follows:

A polynomial of degree p has p-2k real solutions where k is an integer such that p-2k is non-negative. [There will be 2k pairs of complex conjugate roots.]

How do you calculate Sin theta equals 13 times sin 32 degrees divided by 8?

sin (theta) = [13* sin (32o)]/8

= 13*0.529919264/8

= 0.861118804

[theta] = sin-1 (0.861118804)

[theta] = 59.44o

How do you show that sinx divided by tanx equals cosx?

Let: o = opposite

h = hypotenuse

a = adjacent

sin = o/h; tan = o/a

Therefore, sin/tan = (o/h)/(o/a)

= (o/h)*(a/o)

= a/h

= cos

A ladder is leaning against a wall If the angle is between the ground and the ladder at 60 degrees and the wall is 4m how long is the ladder Give exact values?

If the angle between the ladder and the ground is 60 deg, and you know the angle between the ground and the wall is 90 deg, then you have a 30-60-90 degree triangle, which is a common triangle. You should memorize this one. The commonest sides of this right triangle are 4-5-6, with the longest side being the hypoteneuse, in this case the ladder leaning from the ground to the wall. The wall is 4m high, the base of the ladder would be 5m out from the wall, and the length of the ladder is 6m.

How do you find the mystery angle within a triangle?

All of the angles in a triangle add up to 180, so if one angel was 34, and another angle was 67, than the mystery angle would be 79. I got that because 180-(a+b)=c. 34 is a, and 67 is b.

How do you get theta?

The answer depends on what information you have about theta!

What is the sine of 52.5 degrees?

The sine of 52.5 degrees equals 0.79335334029124. Hope I helped!

What is hl congruency theroem?

If the hypotenuse and one leg of a right angled triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and leg of another right angled triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

How could you tell if tan is negative or positive in a quadrant Example in quadrant II cos - and sin is plus but what is tan?

There's a mnemonic for this: All Students Take Calculus. Starting in the first quadrant, and moving counterclockwise until the last, give each quadrant the first letter of thos words in order. A represents all 3, s represents sine, t represents tangent, and c represents cosine. If the letter appears in a quadrant, it is positive there. If not, it is negative there.

In quadrant 2, only sine is positive.

How do you find the general solution for cos of 3x- pi over 3 equals 0.5?

cos (3pi x/3) = 0.5

The number of answers depends on the range of angles. I will solve this question using the range 0<x<2 pi. Draw a unit circle, you will see that the quadrants where cosine gives a positive value are the first and the fourth quadrants.

The Angles whose cosines give + 0.5 are: pi / 3 and 5pi / 3. (Note that 7 pi/3 and 11 pi/3 are also possible solutions but they lie out of the range 0<x<2pi.)

3pi x/3 = pi/3 OR 3pi x/3 = 5pi/3

Here you can solve the equations to give x = 1/3; 5/3

Use of phytagorean theorem in trigonometry and physics?

If you meant "Pythagorean Theorem" , the uses are almost infinite.

It is associated with finding the length of the "hypotenuse" of any right-angled triangle, given that the other two sides are known. However, a modified version of the Pythagorean Theorem allows us to find the length of any one side of any triangle, given that we know the other two sides, and the angle between them.

In physics, many calculations are based on the Pythagorean Theorem.

For Example,

The use of Trigonometric Parallax allows us to calculate the distance to relatively near stars.It involves the usage the Sun, Earth and the star in question as vertices of the right-angled triangle.

How many vertices are on each wheel of a bicycle?

None. A wheel, be definition, is circular and therefore has no vertices!
