    PROJECT ON BASIC TRIGONOMETRY

    PRESENTED BY: SN . VAISHNAVI Xth STD , KVS, BACHELI


    1

    HISTORY OF TRIGONOMETRY
    TRIGONOMETRY Ancient Egyptian and

    Babylonian mathematicians studied the ratios of the


    sides of similar triangles and discovered some properties of these ratios. Trigonometry (from Greek trignon "triangle" + metron "measure"[1]) is a branch of mathematics that studies triangles and the relationships between their sides and the angles between these sides.

    BASIC THEOREM

    The Pythagorean Theorem:


    The sum of the areas of the two squares on the legs (a and b) equals the

    area of the square on the


    hypotenuse (c).
    3

    The hypotenuse is the side opposite to the 90 degree angle in a right triangle; it is the longest side of the triangle, and one of the two sides adjacent to angle a. The adjacent leg is the other side that is adjacent to angle a. The opposite side is the side that is opposite to angle
    4

    FUNCTIONS Sine function (sin), defined as the ratio of the side

    opposite the angle to the hypotenuse.


    Cosine function (cos), defined as the ratio of the adjacent leg to the hypotenuse. Tangent function (tan), defined as the ratio of the opposite leg to the adjacent leg.

    In this right triangle: sin A = a/c; cos A = b/c; tan A =


    a/b.

    APPLICATIONS

    Pure mathematics and applied mathematics Spherical trigonometry, studies triangles on Spheres astronomy and navigation. Astronomy and navigation.

    METHEDOLOGY
    If one angle of a triangle is 90 degrees and one of the other angles is known, the third is thereby fixed, because the three angles of any triangle add up to 180 degrees. The two acute angles therefore add up to 90 degrees: they are complementary angles. The shape of a triangle is completely determined, except for similarity,

    by the angles.
    Once the angles are known, the ratios of the sides are determined, regardless of the overall size of the triangle. If the length of one of the sides is known, the other two are determined. These ratios are given by the following trigonometric functions of the known angle A, where a, b and c refer to the lengths of the sides in the

    accompanying figure:

    (i) Sine q: It is defined as the ratio of the side


    opposite to q and the hypotenuse

    (ii) Cosine q: It is defined as the ratio of an adjacent side to q and the hypotenuse

    (iii) Tangent q : It is defined as the ratio of the side opposite to q and the adjacent side

    10

    Similarly three more ratios can be obtained by the reciprocals of.
