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.

The radius of a car wheel is 15 inches How many revolutions per minute is the wheel making when the car is traveling at 60 mph?

60 mph = 88 feet/sec = (88 x 12) inches per sec = (88 x 12 x 60) in/min = 63,360 inches per minute

Circumference of the wheel = 2 pi R = 30 pi inches.

RPM = (63,360) / (30 pi) = 672.27 rev per min (rounded)

What is the sin function?

It is a trigonometric function. It is also continuous.

What is complete number system?

One of them is the Hindu-Arabic numeral system which we use today and another is the Roman numeral system which was used by the ancient Romans

What is the Conclusion of spherical Trigonometry?

The subject has not concluded: there are still aspects of it that can be developed so it is premature to talk about the conclusion of the subject.

What is the perimeter of a triangle with no stated angles and only 2 stated sides and its not a right-angled triangle?

The perimeter of a triangle, given only two sides and no information about angles, cannot be determined. However, it can be said (if the two given sides were A and B) that the perimeter cannot be less than 2A or 2B, whichever is more, nor more than 2(A+B).

These are limiting cases. In the first case, A or B approaches zero, which makes C approach B or A. In the second case, A and B have an angle approaching 180 degrees, making C approach A+B.

How do you understand trigonometry?

It is simple the study of triangles: the properties of their sides and angles. This is then extended to other, more complicated polygons and polyhedra, but the basis is still the triangle.

How do you do the circumferences and the diameters?

The answers depend on what you want to "do" and what information you have.

How do you work out the angle of a triangle using tan trigonometry?

What is the frequency of a sine wave is?

The frequency of a sine wave can be thought of in several different ways:

-- watching the wave from one fixed point, the number of times the wave reaches its maximum amplitude

in one second, or the number of complete waves that pass you in one second

-- the speed of the wave, divided by the distance between two consecutive maximum points on it

-- the reciprocal of the time it takes for one complete wave to pass you (' 1 ' divided by that length of time)

What is sine infinite?

Because infinity is not a umber, it is usually not treated as a number when computing functions. Instead, you can look for a limit of a function as it approaches infinity. For example, the limit as x approaches infinity of 1/x is 0. Because sine oscillates, it's value constantly moves up and down, and it's value as it approaches infinity is not defined because it does not converge on any one number, as some other functions (like 1/x) do.

Explain the effect an increase in the retirement age would have on a country's ppf curve?

An inrease in the retirement age would effectively increase a country's labor supply, shifting the production possibilities curve right.

What is the study of octagons if trigonometry is the study of triangles?

Geometry is the study of all shapes. This includes octagons. Trigonometry developed much later than geometry for applying the study of triangles to practical application.
