TRIGONOMETRY
Angle and Its Measurement Angle: an angle may be defined as a measure of the rotation of a half ray about its origin. An angle XOP is positive if it is traced by a ray revolving in the anticlockwise direction and negative if it is traced by a ray revolving in the clockwise direction.

Measurement of an Angle: There are three systems of measurement of an angle: i) Sexagesimal System or English System ii) Centesimal system or French System iii) Circular System Sexagesimal System (degree measure): In this system an angle is measured in degrees, minutes and seconds. One complete revolution is 360 0 where one degree is written as 10. Further. Thus 10 = 60 minutes (or 60 ) and 1 = 60 seconds (or 60 ). An angle of 900 is also called a right angle. Centesimal System (grade measure): In this system an angle is measured in grades, minutes and seconds. Here 1 right angle = 100 grades, written as 100g, 1 grade = 100 minutes, written as 100 , and 1 minute = 100 seconds, written as 100 . Circular System (radian measure): In this system an angle is measured in radians. A radian is an angle subtended at the centre of a circle by an arc whose length is equal to its radius. AOB = 1 radian (written as 1C). B Since the whole circle subtends an angle of 3600 (4 right angles) at the centre and the angles at the centre of a circle are in the ratio of r substending arcs, O arc AB AOB r so that A 4 right angles circumference AOB =

Trigonometric ratios (or functions) may also be defined with respect to a triangle. In a right angled triangle ABC, CAB = A and BCA = 90 = /2. With reference to angle A, the six trigonometric ratios are: B BC opposite side
AB hypotenuse
is called the sine of A, and written as sinA. AC adjacent side AB hypotenuse is called the cosine of A, and written as cosA. BC opposite side AC adjacent side
A C
is called the tangnet of A, and written as tanA. sinA Obviously, tan A= . The reciprocals of sine, cosine and tangent are called the cosecant, secant and cosA cotangent of A respectively. We write these as cosecA, secA, cotA respectively. Since the hypotenuse is the greatest side in a right angle triangle, sinA and cosA can never be greater than unity and cosecA and secA

An identity is a relation which is true for all values of the independent variable. There are three fundamental identities involving trigonometrical ratios: i) sin2 + cos2 = 1 ii) 1 + tan2 = sec2 iii) 1 + cot2 = cosec2 Trigonometric Ratios of Standard Angles

The same is true for the respective reciprocal functions also.

Graphs of Trigonometric Functions: We have seen that all trigonometric function are periodic. Since sin (2 + x) = sin x, cos (2 + x) = cos x, and tan ( + x) = tan x, the period of sine and cosine functions is 2 where as the period of tangent function is . 2 Moreover, period of sin ax or cos ax is and that of tan ax is . a a
