Trigonometry is a hybrid. It is based on a mixture of both geometry and algebra and it involves the study of angels, triangles and circles.

Mathematical discipline dealing with the relationships between the sides and angles of triangles.

DEFINITIO N
The branch of mathematics that deals with the relationships between the sides and the angles of triangles and the calculations based on them, particularly the trigonometric functions. trigonometry a specialized area of geometry concerned with the properties of and relations among the parts of a triangle. Spherical trigonometry is concerned with the study of triangles on the surface of a sphere rather than in the plane; it is of considerable importance in surveying, navigator and astronomy.

Trigonometry finds a perfect partner in modern architecture. The beautifully curved surfaces in steel, stone and glass would be impossible if not for the immense potential of this science.

The techniques in trigonometry are used for finding relevance in navigation particularly satellite systems and astronomy, naval and aviation industries, oceanography, land surveying, and in cartography

Everyday Reasons Why Trigonometry is Important in your Life?

explore areas where this science finds use in our daily activities and how we can use this to resolve problems we might encounter. can be used to measure the heights of mountains.

Several imaging technologies that apply the concepts of trigonometry find usage in medicine.

The tangent (tan) of an angle is the ratio of the sine to the cosine:

The primary trigonometric functions are the sine and cosine of an angle. These are usually abbreviated sin() and cos(), respectively, where is the angle. In addition, the parentheses around the angle are sometimes omitted, e.g. sin and cos .

The inverse trigonometric functions are partial inverse functions for the trigonometric functions. For example, the inverse function for the sine, known as the inverse sine (sin1 ) or arcsine (arcsin or asin), satisfies

Finally, the reciprocal functions secant (sec), cosecant (csc), and cotangent (cot) are the reciprocals of the cosine, sine, and tangent:
