The origin and the development of statistics?
The earliest recorded use of statistics was in the 5th century BCE. The ancient Greeks were attempting to scale a wall, and determined the necessary height for their ladders by counting the bricks in the wall. Since that time, the science of statistics has expanded to include both the collection of the data and the mathematical analysis thereof.
Who is founder of trigonometry?
No one in particular because trigonometry has evolved over thousands of years with many ancient and modern mathematicians making their own discoveries and contributions to the subject.
What are the importance of spherical trigonometry in mathematics?
We live on a sphere. Calculating 'shortest' distance on the sphere is not a simple trig problem, you may need spherical trig.
How do solve sin 2 theta - square root of 3 theta- equals 0?
The only real solution is theta = 0
For theta < 0 square root of 3 theta is not defined.
For theta > 0, sin theta increases slower than 3*theta and so the sum is always negative.

How can you graph tan x in Microsoft Excel?
In the 1st column make a list of numbers, and in the 2nd column calculate the tangent of each value in the 1st column. Try entering 0.01 in A1 and =A1+0.01 in A2, then select A2:A942 and fill down. In B1 enter =tan(A1), then select B1:B942 and fill down. Next, select A1:B942, then insert a line graph. Adjust the Y axis range until it looks good.

After 12 hours, the first boat is at a distance 14*12 = 168 miles east of the port.
The second boat is at a distance
28*12*cos(30) = 291.0 miles north
and
28*12*sin(30) = 168.0 miles east
of the port.
Since their Eastward displacement is the same, the distance between the two is the Northwards displacement of the second boat = 291.0 miles.
Determine second third and 12TH harmonic of a sine wave?
A sine wave has no harmonics. It only has a fundamental, so the value of the 2nd, 3rd, and 12th harmonics of a sine wave is zero.

Are trigonometric functions used to find the acute angles of a right triangle?
they can be, depending on the information that you are given. If you know lengths of sides, then YES.
How do you find an angle of a triangle?
There are many ways of finding angles in triangles...one of which is to get a protractor, of course...
Also, if you know two angles, you can find the third by just subtracting the sum of the two angles from 180, which is the total number of degrees in any triangle.
The cosine function has an absolute value that cannot exceed 1. Therefore the is no angle x such that cos(x) = 3.
That is, there is no angle x such that x = cos^-1(3).

How to move a specific distance along a line determined by 2 points in 3d space!
Specific distance = m
Distance between the 2 points = D
Distance to move along line from Point #2 toward Point #1 = Displacement = m
Determine the coordinates of the point M (c, d, e), which is m units closer to Point#2
Given 2 points
Point #1 (a, b, c)
Point #2 (g. h, i)
1. Find the distance between the 2 points using Pythagorean Theorem
Think of moving from Point #1 to Point #2 by moving along the x-axis, then the y-axis, then the z-axis.
(g-a) = distance moved along the x-axis
(h-b) = distance moved along the y-axis
(i-c) = distance moved along the x-axisS
D = [(g-a)^2 + (h-e)^2 + (i-c)^2]^0.5
2. Determine the coordinates of the unit vector by dividing the distance moved along each axis by D.
Coordinates of unit vector = [(g-a) ÷ D], [(h-b) ÷ D], [(i-c) ÷ D]
x coordinate of unit vector = (g-a) ÷ D
y coordinate of unit vector = (h-b) ÷ D
z coordinate of unit vector = (i-c) ÷ D
Unit vector = [((g-a) ÷ D)^2 + ((h-e) ÷ D) ^2) + ((i-c) ÷ D) ^2]^0.5) = 1
If the value of the unit vector does not =1, go back and check your work.
3. Multiply each coordinate of the unit vector by m to determine the coordinates of the vector m. These coordinates will be added to coordinates of Point #1 to determine the coordinates of Point #3.
x coordinate of m vector = m * (g-a) ÷ D
y coordinate of m vector = m * (h-b) ÷ D
z coordinate of m vector = m * (i-c) ÷ D
4. To determine the coordinates of Point #3(d, e, f) that is m cm from Point #1 toward Point #2, add the coordinates of the m vector to the coordinates of Point #1.
d = x coordinate of Point #3 = a + (m * (g-a) ÷ D)
e = y coordinate of Point #3 = b + (m * (h-b) ÷ D)
f = z coordinate of Point #3 = c + (m * (i-c) ÷ D)
5. To determine the distance from Point #1 (a, b, c) to Point #3 (d, e, f), use Pythagorean Theorem
D = [(d-a)^2 + (e-b)^2 + (f-c)^2]^0.5
The answer should be m.
I wanted to move 2 cm from Point #1 toward Point #2, and I did.
Now let's see if this method works!! Point #1 = (2,3,1), Point #2 = (6,9,3)
I want to move 2 cm from Point #1 toward Point #2, that means m = 2 cm.
1. Find the distance between the 2 points using Pythagorean Theorem
D = [(g-a)^2 + (h-e)^2 + (i-c)^2]^0.5
D = [(6-2)^2 + (9-3)^2 + (3-1)^2]^0.5
D = [(4)^2 + (6)^2 + (2)^2]^0.5
D = [16 + 36 + (4)]^0.5
D = 56^0.5
D = 7.4833
So the line between these Point #1 and Point #2 is 7.483 units long
2. Determine the coordinates of the unit vector by dividing the distance moved along each axis by D.
Distance moved along x-axis = 4
Distance moved along y-axis = 6
Distance moved along z-axis = 2
x-coordinate of unit vector = 4 ÷ 7.4833 = 0.5345
y-coordinate of unit vector = 6 ÷ 7.483 = 0.8018
z-coordinate of unit vector = 2 ÷ 7.483 = 0.2673
Length of unit vector = [(0.5345)^2 + (0.8018)^2+ (0.2673)^2]^0.5 = 1
The length of the unit vector should = 1
3. Multiply each coordinate of the unit vector by m to determine the coordinates of the vector m.
x coordinate of m vector = m * (g-a) ÷ D = 2 * 0.5345 = 1.069
y coordinate of m vector = m * (h-b) ÷ D = 2 * 0.8018 = 1.6036
z coordinate of m vector = m * (i-c) ÷ D = 2 * 0.2673 = 0.5346
m vector = [1.069^2 + (1.6036)^2 + (1.5346)^2]^0.5 = 2
4. To determine the coordinates of the Point #3 (d, e, f) that is m cm from Point #1 toward Point #2, add the coordinates of the m vector to the coordinates of Point #1 (a, b, c).
Point #1 = (2, 3, 1)
x coordinate of Point #3 = 2 + 1.069 = 3.069
y coordinate of Point #3 = 3 +1.6036 = 4.6036
z coordinate of Point #3 = 1+ 0.5346 = 1.5346
Point #3 = (3.069, 4.6036, 1.5346)
5. To determine the distance from Point#1 to Point #3, use Pythagorean Theorem
D = [(d-a)^2 + (e-b)^2 + (f-c)^2]^0.5
D = [(3.069-2)^2 + (4.6036-3)^2 + (1.5346-1)^2]^0.5
D = [(1.069)^2 + (1.6036)^2 + (0.5346)^2]^0.5 = 2
D = 2 cm
I wanted to move 2 cm from Point #1 toward Point #2, and I did.
Three kinds of relations in math?
There are four kinds of relations in ordered pairs:
one to one (each x value is unique and has a unique y value associated with it)
one to many (each x value has multiple possible y values)
many to one (each y value has multiple possible x values)
many to many (x and y values can be repeated and are not unique)
