He was a Calvinist, studying Calvinist theology. Pitiscus's future was much tied to Friedrich der Aufrichtige, known as Frederick IV, elector Palatine of the Rhine. Frederick's father died in 1583 and John Casimir, his uncle, became guardian to the ten year old Frederick. John Casimir was an ardent Calvinist and appointed Pitiscus to teach Frederick in 1584. Later Pitiscus was appointed court chaplain at Breslau and court preacher to Frederick. When John Casimir died in 1592 Frederick undertook the government of the Palatinate continuing his uncle's policies of hostility to the Catholic Church. Pitiscus strongly supported the Calvinist policies from a major position of influence. The word 'trigonometry' is due to Pitiscus in the title of a book Trigonometria published in Heidelberg in 1595. It consists of 5 books on plane and spherical trigonometry. It was translated into English in 1614 and into French in 1619.

3. The Birth Of Trigonometry literally, the measuring of triangles), published by bartholomeo pitiscus in 1595 http://www.ualr.edu/~lasmoller/trig.html

Did you know . . .? The complex origins of trigonometry are embedded in the history of the simple word "sine," a mistranslation of an Arabic transliteration of a Sanskrit mathematical term! The complex etymology of "sine" reveals trigonometry's roots in Babylonian, Greek, Hellenistic, Indian, and Arabic mathematics and astronomy. Although trigonometry now is usually taught beginning with plane triangles, its origins lie in the world of astronomy and spherical triangles. Before the sixteenth century, astronomy was based on the notion that the earth stood at the center of a series of nested spheres. To calculate the positions of stars or planets, one needed to use concepts we now refer to as trigonometry. The earliest uses of trigonometric functions were related to the chords of a circle, and the recognition that the length of the chord subtended by a given angle x was (in modern terms) 2sin( x /2). The Greek astronomer and mathematician Hipparchus produced the first known table of chords in 140 BC. His work was further developed by astronomers Menelaus (ca. AD 100) and

- BARTHOLOMEO - Bartholomeo Pitiscus estudió teología, inicialmente en Zerbst y luego en Heidelberg (Teología Calvinista). El futuro de Pitiscus estaba muy vinculado al de Friedrich der Aufrichtige, conocido como Federico IV, elegido Regente del Rhin. El padre de Frederik murió en 1583 y John Casimir, su tío, se convirtió en el guardián del joven Frederick, quien contaba con 10 años de edad. John Casimir era un ardiente Calvinista y consiguió que Pitiscus fuera nombrado maestro de Frederick. Posteriormente Pitiscus fue nombrado capellán de la corte en Breslau y predicador de la corte de Frederick. Cuando John Casimir muere en 1592 Frederick asumió la regencia del Rhin y continuó con la política hostil de su tío hacia la iglesia Católica. Pitiscus apoyó fuertemente su causa desde una posición de gran influencia. La palabra "trigonometría" se debe a Pitiscus, quien la utilizó como título de su libro Trigonometría publicado en Heidelberg en 1595, el mismo consistía de 5 libros sobre trigonometría plana y esférica. Su obra fue traducida al inglés en 1614 y al francés en 1619. También publicó Thesaurus mathematicus.
