    Study Notes

    Trigonometry Overview

    • Study of triangles and the relationships between their sides and angles is known as trigonometry.

    Trigonometric Functions

    • Sine function (sin) represents the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle.

    • The reciprocal of the sine function is called the cosecant function (csc).

    • Cosine function (cos) represents the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to the angle to the length of the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle.

    • The reciprocal of the tangent function is known as the cotangent function (cot).

    • A crucial trigonometric identity relating sine and cosine functions is sin²(θ) + cos²(θ) = 1 for any angle θ.
