如何计算Trig Functions

Trigonometric functions (sin, cos, tan, csc, sec, cot) relate the angles and sides of triangles. They extend to the unit circle for all angles and are fundamental in physics, engineering, navigation, signal processing, and wave analysis.

分步指南

1. 1In a right triangle: sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse, cos θ = adjacent/hypotenuse, tan θ = opposite/adjacent
2. 2Mnemonic: SOH-CAH-TOA
3. 3Unit circle definition: sin θ = y-coordinate, cos θ = x-coordinate, at angle θ from positive x-axis
4. 4Reciprocals: csc = 1/sin, sec = 1/cos, cot = 1/tan
