What is Trigonometry? Trigonometry is the branch of mathematics that deals with triangle s, circle s, oscillation s and waves ; it is absolutely crucial to much of geometry and physics . You'll often hear it described as if it was all about triangles, but I think that is missing much of the point. Waves and resonance are at the root of how matter works at the most fundamental level ; they are behind how sound and light move, and probably also how mind s and beauty work, on some level; so trigonometry turns out to be fundamental to pretty much everything. Any time you want to figure out anything to do with angle s, or turning, or swinging , there's trigonometry involved. The first thing to understand with trigonometry is why the mathematics of right-angled triangles should also be the mathematics of circles. Picture a line which can turn around one of its ends, like the hand of a clock . Obviously, the moving end of the line traces out a circle - it's like drawing with a

An introduction to TRIGONOMETRY Definitions and basics Trigonometric circle and angles Trigonometric numbers of a real number t Basic formulas ... Calculations with inverse trigonometric functions Definitions and basics Trigonometric circle and angles Take an x-axis and an y-axis (orthonormal) and let O be the origin. A circle centered in O and with radius = 1, is called a trigonometric circle or unit circle. Turning counterclockwise is the positive orientation in trigonometry. Angles are measured starting from the x-axis. Two units to measure an angle are degrees and radians An orthogonal angle = 90 degrees = pi/2 radians In this theory we use mainly radians. With each real number t corresponds just one angle, and just one point P on the unit circle, when we start measuring on the x-axis. We call that point the image point of t. Examples: with pi/6 corresponds the angle t and point P on the circle. with -pi/2 corresponds the angle u and point Q on the circle. Trigonometric numbers of a real number t With t radians corresponds exactly one point p on the unit circle.

Trigonometry Radian Measure Arc Length Coordinate System Trigonometric Functions on a General Angle ... Back to the Math Table Of Contents Radian Measure A radian is a unit of angle measure. The radian measure of a central angle of a circle compares the length of its intercepted arc with the length of the radius of the circle. One radian is the measure of a central angle of a circle that intercepts an arc whose length equals the radius of the circle. Given a central angle q in radians, s represents the length of its intercepted arc, with radius r: q s r or s = r q To change from degrees to radians: Multiple the number of degrees by To change from radians to degrees: Multiple the number of radians by Build Worksheet Arc Length Use the s = r q equation to solve these word problems.

12. Basic Trigonometry BASIC trigonometry. THE RIGHT TRIANGLE. For a triangle to be called a right triangle, one of the interior angles must be 90 degrees. http://abe.www.ecn.purdue.edu/~agen215/trig.html

BASIC TRIGONOMETRY THE RIGHT TRIANGLE For a triangle to be called a right triangle , one of the interior angles must be 90 degrees. The sum of the interior angles must be 180 degrees , as with all triangles. TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM Given the length of the side opposite and the side adjacent of a right triangle, the hypotenuse can be calculated by the following formula: You can actually find any third side of a triangle, if the other two sides are known. SUM OF INTERIOR ANGLES If "n" is the number of vertices (corners) of a closed shape, the sum of the interior angles can be found by: What is the sum of the interior angles for the fourth shape above? Because it has four vertices, (4-2) * 180 = 360 degrees, like any four-sided shape. GRADE AND PERCENT GRADE To calculate the grade, use the following formula: For this example, the grade equals (25/500) = 0.05 The percent grade equals (25/500) * 100 = 5% CONVERTING MAP AREA TO FIELD AREA If you are dealing with an area, in which the unit is square feet, or some such unit, you must square the scale of the map to calculate the proper area. Field Area = Map Area * (Map Scale)^2 So if the map has a scale of 1 in. = 2000 ft., and you measure a field to have a map area of 7.0 square inches, the total area is:

14. Applications Of Trigonometry Applications of trigonometry. What can you do with trig? The kind of trigonometry needed to understand positions on a sphere is called spherical trigonometry. http://aleph0.clarku.edu/~djoyce/java/trig/apps.html

Applications of trigonometry What can you do with trig? Historically, it was developed for astronomy and geography, but scientists have been using it for centuries for other purposes, too. Besides other fields of mathematics, trig is used in physics, engineering, and chemistry. Within mathematics, trig is used in primarily in calculus (which is perhaps its greatest application), linear algebra, and statistics. Since these fields are used throughout the natural and social sciences, trig is a very useful subject to know. Astronomy and geography Trigonometric tables were created over two thousand years ago for computations in astronomy. The stars were thought to be fixed on a crystal sphere of great size, and that model was perfect for practical purposes. Only the planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, the moon, and the sun) moved on the sphere. The kind of trigonometry needed to understand positions on a sphere is called spherical trigonometry. Spherical trigonometry is rarely taught now since its job has been taken over by linear algebra. Nonetheless, one application of trigonometry is astronomy. As the earth is also a sphere, trigonometry is used in geography and in navigation. Ptolemy (100-178) used trigonometry in his

TRIGONOMETRY - MEASURE OF AN ANGLE Any real number may be interpreted as the radian measure of an angle as follows: If , think of wrapping a length of string around the standard unit circle C in the plane, with initial point P (1,0), and proceeding counterclockwise around the circle; do the same if , but wrap the string clockwise around the circle. This process is described in Figure 1 below. Figure 1 If Q x y ) is the point on the circle where the string ends, we may think of as being an angle by associating to it the central angle with vertex O (0,0) and sides passing through the points P and Q . If instead of wrapping a length s of string around the unit circle, we decide to wrap it around a circle of radius R , the angle (in radians) generated in the process will satisfy the following relation: Observe that the length s of string gives the measure of the angle only when R As a matter of common practice and convenience, it is useful to measure angles in degrees , which are defined by partitioning one whole revolution into 360 equal parts, each of which is then called one degree. In this way, one whole revolution around the unit circle measures radians and also 360 degrees (or ), that is:

Spherical Trigonometry Arc Distance Formula Finding the shortest distance between two points on the earth given latitude and longitude. Spherical Triangle Calculator Download ARC_CALC_3 . This small program will do the calculations below in an Excel 4.0 spreadsheet. You only need to input the coordinates. The program supports input of three sites and calculates the three arc distances, the area of the spherical triangle and the bearings between sites. Most spreadsheet programs should be able to import this file format. The graphic below illustrates the spreadsheet, before corrections on July 24, 2002. Previous downloads have "A to C" and "B to C" labels swapped for arcs and bearings. Let me know if there are other bugs in the applet. Epoch_2000 Temporal Epoch Calculator is a similar Excel spreadsheet. It calculates the temporal changes in astronomic constants, obliquity of the ecliptic and illumination angles at any specified latitude. You just enter the latitude and the date.
