    Trigonometry

    Angles and Triangles

    • Angle measurements can be expressed in degrees or radians, with 1 radian equal to 180/π degrees.
    • Right-angled triangles have one right angle (90°), and oblique triangles have no right angles.
    • Pythagorean triples are sets of integers that satisfy the Pythagorean theorem, such as 3-4-5.

    Trigonometric Ratios

    • Sine (sin) is the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle.
    • Cosine (cos) is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle.
    • Tangent (tan) is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side in a right-angled triangle.
    • Cotangent (cot) is the ratio of the adjacent side to the opposite side in a right-angled triangle.
    • Secant (sec) is the ratio of the hypotenuse to the adjacent side in a right-angled triangle.
    • Cosecant (csc) is the ratio of the hypotenuse to the opposite side in a right-angled triangle.

    Trigonometric Identities

    • The Pythagorean identity states that sin²(A) + cos²(A) = 1 for any angle A.
    • The sum and difference formulas for sine and cosine allow for the calculation of trigonometric ratios for sums and differences of angles.
    • The double and half angle formulas for sine and cosine allow for the calculation of trigonometric ratios for double and half angles.

    Graphs of Trigonometric Functions

    • Sine and cosine waves have a period of 360° (or 2π radians), and can be shifted horizontally or vertically.
    • The amplitude of a sine or cosine wave is the maximum displacement from the mean position.
    • The phase shift of a sine or cosine wave is the horizontal displacement from the origin.
    • Tangent and cotangent graphs have vertical asymptotes at certain angles.

    Applications of Trigonometry

    • Trigonometry is used to solve triangles, including finding unknown sides and angles.

    • Integers include whole numbers and negative numbers (e.g. ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3,...)
    • Rational numbers can be expressed as a fraction (e.g. 1/2, 3/4), and they can be either positive or negative
    • Irrational numbers cannot be expressed as a fraction (e.g. π, e), and they are non-repeating and non-terminating
    • Real numbers include both rational and irrational numbers, making them a comprehensive set of numbers

    • Expressions are combinations of variables, constants, and mathematical operations, and they can be simplified or evaluated
    • Equations are statements that express the equality of two expressions, and they can be solved using algebraic methods
    • Inequalities are statements that compare two expressions using greater than, less than, or equal to, and they can be solved using algebraic methods

    Geometry

    • Points are locations in space, represented by coordinates (x, y), and they can be used to define shapes and figures
    • Lines are sets of points that extend infinitely in two directions, and they can be used to define shapes and figures
    • Angles are formed by two lines or rays sharing a common endpoint, and they can be acute, obtuse, or right angles
    • Triangles are polygons with three sides and three angles, and they can be classified into different types (e.g. equilateral, isosceles, scalene)
    • Quadrilaterals are polygons with four sides and four angles, and they can be classified into different types (e.g. rectangles, squares, trapezoids)

    Measurement

    • Units are standard amounts used to measure quantities, such as inches, meters, and grams
    • Conversion involves changing from one unit to another, such as from inches to feet or from pounds to kilograms
