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.

What is the cosine of a ratio that has 0 as its numerator?

If the numerator is 0 AND the denominator is not 0, then the ratio is 0. And cosine of 0 is 1.

What does the cotangent of infinity equal?

Cotangent of ∞ is not π/2. It's actually nonexistent since cotangent is the continually oscillating function.

Express all the trigonometric ratios of cosA?

sin = sqrt(1 - cos^2)tan = sqrt(1 - cos^2)/cos

sec = 1/cos

cosec = 1/sqrt(1 - cos^2)

cot = cos/sqrt(1 - cos^2)

Can sine theta equals to theta?

Yes, it can.

If you plot theta and sin(theta) on the same graph, you will see where they intersect.

I do not know of an analytical expression for this point; I think only numerical results are possible.

What is the solution to sec plus tan equals cos over 1 plus sin?

sec + tan = cos /(1 + sin)

sec and tan are defined so cos is non-zero.

1/cos + sin/cos = cos/(1 + sin)

(1 + sin)/cos = cos/(1 + sin)

cross-multiplying, (1 + sin)2 = cos2

(1 + sin)2 = 1 - sin2

1 + 2sin + sin2 = 1 - sin2

2sin2 + 2sin = 0

sin2 + sin = 0

sin(sin + 1) = 0

so sin = 0 or sin = -1

But sin = -1 implies that cos = 0 and cos is non-zero.

Therefore sin = 0 or the solutions are k*pi radians where k is an integer.

How do you derived the sine law?

Consider any triangle ABC, and let AD be the altitude from A on to BC.

Then sin(B) = AD/AB so that AD = AB*sin(B)

and sin(C) = AD/AC so that AD = AC*sin(C)

Therefore AB*sin(B) = AC*sin(C)

or c*sin(B) = b*sin(C) where the lower case letter represents the side opposite the angle with the upper case name.

Divide both sides by bc to give sin(B)/b = sin(C)/c.

Similarly, using the altitude from B you can show that sin(A)/a = sin(C)/c.

Combining with the previous result,

sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b = sin(C)/c.

How to solve sin of cos inverse of x?

sin[cos-1(x)] is an expression; it is not an equation (nor inequality). An expression cannot be solved.

What are some tan and cosine?

Any number can be a tan. So -sqrt(17), 19.56, 45678942 are all examples of tan.

Cosine can have any value in the range [-1, 1].

Where does the word lattimore come from?

The name originated in Wales during the mid 1200's and was mostly 'transported' over to Ireland during the 1600's. In 1842, The first Irishmen with the surname Lattimore moved over to England in the attempt for work during the Industrial Revolution. Ever since then, the surname Lattimore has been mostly common in England, Ireland and Wales.

Fertilizers provide plants with?

Fertilizers typically add nitrates, phosphates and sulfates as well as salts of magnesium, potassium and calcium. They may also contain micronutrients of other metals.

What is the arc function for trigonometric relationships?

The trigonometric function of an angle gives a certain value

The arc trigonometric function of value is simply the angle

For example, if sin (30 degrees) = 0.500

then arc sine ( 0.500) = 30 degrees
