Trigonometric Functions of an Angle

With reference to Figure 217.1,

P

(

x

,

y

) is a point in any one of the four quadrants and

A

is an angle
whose initial side is coincident with the positive

x

axis and whose terminal side contains the point

P

(

x

,

y

). The distance from the origin

P

(

x

,

y

) is denoted by

r

and is positive. The trigonometric functions of
the angle

A

are dened as:
Angles are measured in degrees or radians; 180

=



p

radians; 1 radian

=

180/

p

degrees.
The trigonometric functions of 0, 30, 45, and integer multiples of these are directly computed.

There is a close relation between this function and the area under the standard normal curve. For
evaluation it is convenient to use

z

instead of

x

; then erf

z

may be evaluated from the area

F

(

z

) by use
of the relation

Example

By interpolation,

F

(0.707)

=

0.260; thus, erf(0.5)

=

0.520.

Series Expansion

The expression in parentheses following certain series indicates the region of convergence. If not otherwise
indicated, it is understood that the series converges for all nite values of

x.

217.3 Differential Calculus
Notation
For the following equations, the symbols f (x), g(x), etc., represent functions of x. The value of a function
f (x) at x = a is denoted f (a). For the function y = f (x) the derivative of y with respect to x is denoted by
one of the following:
Higher derivatives are as follows:
and values of these at x = a are denoted , and so on (see Table of Derivatives in Appendix).
Slope of a Curve
The tangent line at point P(x, y) of the curve y = f (x) has a slope provided that exists at P.
The slope at P is dened to be that of the tangent line at P. The tangent line at P(x
1
, y
1
) is given by
The normal line to the curve at P(x
1
, y
1
) has slope and thus obeys the equation
(The slope of a vertical line is not dened.)
Angle of Intersection of Two Curves
Two curves, y = f
1
(x) and y = f
2
(x), that intersect at a point P(X, Y) where derivatives exist,
have an angle (a) of intersection given by
If tan a > 0, then a is the acute angle; if tan a < 0, then a is the obtuse angle.

217-14 The Engineering Handbook, Second Edition
In polar coordinates (q, r) the corresponding formula is
The curvature K is 1/R.
Relative Maxima and Minima
The function f has a relative maximum at x = a if f (a) f (a + c) for all values of c (positive or negative)
that are sufciently near zero. The function f has a relative minimum at x = b if f (b) f(b + c) for all
values of c that are sufciently close to zero. If the function f is dened on the closed interval x
1
x x
2
and has a relative maximum or minimum at x = a, where x
1
< a < x
2
, and if the derivative exists
at x = a, then . It is noteworthy that a relative maximum or minimum may occur at a point
where the derivative does not exist. Further, the derivative may vanish at a point that is neither a maximum
nor a minimum for the function. Values of x for which are called critical values. To determine
whether a critical value of x, say x
c
, is a relative maximum or minimum for the function at x
c
, one may
use the second derivative test:
1. If is positive, f(x
c
) is a minimum.
2. If is negative, f(x
c
) is a maximum.
3. If is zero, no conclusion may be made.
The sign of the derivative as x advances through x
c
may also be used as a test. If changes from
positive to zero to negative, then a maximum occurs at x
c
, whereas a change in from negative to
zero to positive indicates a minimum. If does not change sign as x advances through x
c
, then the
point is neither a maximum nor a minimum.
Points of Inection of a Curve
The sign of the second derivative of f indicates whether the graph of y = f (x) is concave upward or
concave downward:
concave upward
concave downward
A point of the curve at which the direction of concavity changes is called a point of inection (Figure
217.2). Such a point may occur where or where becomes innite. More precisely, if

the function y = f (x) and its rst derivative are continuous in the interval a x b, and if
exists in a < x < b, then the graph of y = f(x) for a < x < b is concave upward if is
positive and concave downward if is negative.
Taylors Formula
If f is a function that is continuous on an interval that contains a and x, and if its rst (n + 1) derivatives
are continuous on this interval, then
where R is called the remainder. There are various common forms of the remainder:
Lagranges Form
Cauchys Form
Integral Form
Indeterminant Forms
If f (x) and g(x) are continuous in an interval that includes x = a, and if f (a) = 0 and g(a) = 0, the limit
[f (x)/g(x)] takes the form 0/0, called an indeterminant form. LHpitals rule is
Similarly, it may be shown that if f (x) and g(x) as x a, then
(The above holds for x .)

Numerical Methods
1. Newtons method for approximating roots of the equation f (x) = 0; A rst estimate x
1
of the root
is made; then, provided that , a better approximation is x
2
:
The process may be repeated to yield a third approximation, x
3
, to the root:
provided exists. The process may be repeated. (In certain rare cases the process will not
converge.)
2. Trapezoidal rule for areas (Figure 217.3): For the function y = f (x) dened on the interval (a, b)
and positive there, take n equal subintervals of width Dx = (b - a)/n. The area bounded by the
curve between x = a and x = b [or denite integral of f (x)] is approximately the sum of trapezoidal
areas, or
Estimation of the error (E) is possible if the second derivative can be obtained:

For the function of two variables, denoted z = f (x, y), if y is held constant, say at y = y
1
, then the resulting
function is a function of x only. Similarly, x may be held constant at x
1
, to give the resulting function of y.
The Gas Laws
A familiar example is afforded by the ideal gas law relating the pressure p, the volume V, and the absolute
temperature T of an ideal gas:
pV = nRT
where n is the number of moles and R is the gas constant per mole, 8.31 (J K
-1
mole
-1
). By rearrange-
ment, any one of the three variables may be expressed as a function of the other two. Further, either one
of these two may be held constant. If T is held constant, then we get the form known as Boyles law:
p = kV
-1
(Boyles law)
where we have denoted nRT by the constant k and, of course, V > 0. If the pressure remains constant,
we have Charles law:
V = bT (Charles law)
where the constant b denotes nR/p. Similarly, volume may be kept constant:
p = aT
where now the constant, denoted a, is nR/V.
Partial Derivatives
The physical example afforded by the ideal gas law permits clear interpretations of processes in which
one of the variables is held constant. More generally, we may consider a function z = f (x, y) dened over
some region of the xy plane in which we hold one of the two coordinates, say y, constant. If the resulting
function of x is differentiable at a point (x, y), we denote this derivative by one of the notations

called the partial derivative with respect to x. Similarly, if x is held constant and the resulting function of
y is differentiable, we get the partial derivative with respect to y, denoted by one of the following:

217.4 Integral Calculus
Indenite Integral
If F(x) is differentiable for all values of x in the interval (a, b) and satises the equation dy/dx = f(x),
then F(x) is an integral of f (x) with respect to x. The notation is F(x) = f(x) dx or, in differential form,
dF(x) = f (x) dx.
For any function F(x) that is an integral of f(x), it follows that F(x) + C is also an integral. We thus write
Denite Integral
Let f(x) be dened on the interval [a, b] which is partitioned by points x
1
, x
2
,, x
j
,, x
n1
between a =
x
0
and b = x
n
. The jth interval has length Dx
j
= x
j
- x
j1
, which may vary with j. The sum
where u
j
is arbitrarily chosen in the jth subinterval, depends on the numbers x
0
,, x
n
and the choice of
the v as well as f; but if such sums approach a common value as all Dx approach zero, then this value is
the denite integral of f over the interval (a, b) and is denoted . The fundamental theorem of
integral calculus states that
where F is any continuous indenite integral of f in the interval (a, b).

Double Integration
The evaluation of a double integral of f (x, y) over a plane region R,
is practically accomplished by iterated (repeated) integration. For example, suppose that a vertical straight
line meets the boundary of R in at most two points so that there is an upper boundary, y = y

If R has left-hand boundary, x = x

(y), which are continuous from
c to d (the extreme values of y in R), then
Such integrations are sometimes more convenient in polar coordinates, x = r cos q, y = r sin q, dA = r dr dq.
Surface Area and Volume by Double Integration
For the surface given by z = f(x, y), which projects onto the closed region R of the xy plane, one may
calculate the volume V bounded above by the surface and below by R, and the surface area S by the following:
[In polar coordinates, (r, q), we replace d A by r dr dq.]
Centroid
The centroid of a region R of the xy plane is a point (x, y) where
and A is the area of the region.
Example. For the circular sector of angle 2a and radius R, the area A is aR

In the above it is noteworthy that the gamma function must be dened for the negative argument q : G(q)
= G(q + 1)/q, provided that q is not a negative integer. When q is a negative integer, 1/G(q) is dened to
be zero. The functions J
-n
(x) and J
n
(x) are solutions of Bessels equation for all real n. It is seen, for n =
1, 2, 3,, that
and, therefore, these are not independent; hence, a linear combination of these is not a general solution.
When, however, n is not a positive integer, a negative integer, or zero, the linear combination with arbitrary
constants c
1
and c
2
,
is the general solution of the Bessel differential equation.
The zero-order function is especially important as it arises in the solution of the heat equation (for a
long cylinder):
while the following relations show a connection to the trigonometric functions:
