What are the main branches of Trigonometry?

Basically it is working out the properties of triangles and angles of various polygons.

How can you use the trigonometry to determine the best time of day to go surfing?

You could model the tides as a simple harmonic motion. This is a form of a sine (or cosine) curve and will enable you to predict the times when the tide is coming in, reaches high tide, when it is ebbing and low tide. This information should help determine the best surfing time.

Can you make your feet smaller in any way without cutting them off?

Actually, I don't know how to make your feet smaller but all I do is wear black tennis shoes and bell bottom jeans. They work a lot!! Believe me! Cause where I live, a lot of guys are always telling me I have big feet. This is how I solve the problem. Oh! And converses always make your feet look bigger. Just a tip there.

What is the cosine of 8 degrees?

The cosine of 8 degrees is 0.99026806874157031508377486734485

In a right triangle if a equals 15in and b equals 20in what does c equal?

C = 25 in

The Pythagorean Theorem allows you to find the thrid side of a right triangle, if you know the other two sides. The formula is a2 + b2 = c2.

CALCULATIONS:

152 + 202 = c2

225 + 400 = c2

625 = c2

c = Square Root of 625

c = 25

* * * * *

There is another option: side b is the hypotenuse.

Then b2 = a2 + c2

of c2 = b2 - a2 = 400 - 225 = 175

then c = sqrt(175) = 5*sqrt(7) = 13.22876 (to 5 dp).

Where did the word Halloween come from?

the word Halloween came from the Celts who lived 2000 years ago

How much minutes is 1000 secants?

A secant is not a subdivision of a minute.

You want maths plus one model question paper?

Plus One Mathematics question papers can be downloaded from different sites including the higher secondary board site.

Why sine ratio is the ratio of opposite side and hypotenuse?

Because that is accepted definition. The sine is opposite over hypotenuse, or Y in the unit circle. The cosine is adjacent over hypotenuse, or X in the unit circle. The tangent is sine over cosine, etc. For more information, please see the related link below.

Where did tetrahedrons come from?

Tetrahedrons are triangular based pyramids that have 4 faces, 6 edges and 4 vertices which were built by the ancient Egyptians.

Where did the word negro come from?

If you're talking about the old word for black skinned people then 'negro' derived from Spanish meaning black. And if you just want the word.

English - Spanish

Black - Negro So it's Spanish Hope I helped :)

What is the meaning of acute angled triangle?

An acute angled triangle means all the angles are less than 90 degrees because an acute angle is an angle less than 90 degrees.

What are the angles of a triangle that has sides of 123 cm 97 cm and 79 cm?

Let the angles be A B C and their opposite sides be a b c and use the cosine rule to find the first two angles and then deduct them from 180 degrees to find the third angle and so therefore it follows that the angles are: 88.05 degrees, 52.01 degrees and 39.94 degrees.

Who are the fathers of trigonometry and their contributions?

based on my stock knowledge, i think hipparchus is the father of trigonometry.....

What is the contribution of hipparchuss in trigonometry?

Hipparchus was recognized as the first mathematician known to have possessed a trigonometric table, which he needed when computing the eccentricity of the orbits of the Moon and Sun. He tabulated values for the chord function, which gives the length of the chord for each angle. He did this for a circle with a circumference of 21600 and a radius (rounded) of 3438 units: this circle has a unit length of 1 arc minute along its perimeter. He tabulated the chords for angles with increments of 7.5°.

Application of trigonometry in your daily life?

Trigonometry can be used to find the heights of buildings when paired with a sextant (a device for measuring angles from the buliding)
