•what is trigeonometric?

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the relationships between


the sides and angles of triangles. It involves studying the properties and
functions of angles, as well as the calculations based on these functions.
Trigonometry is extensively used in various fields such as physics, engineering,
and astronomy.
•what is the formula is trigonometric?
In trigonometry, there are several key formulas that are commonly used to calculate
the relationships between the sides and angles of a triangle. Some of the
fundamental trigonometric formulas include:

1. Sine Function:
\sin(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite side}}{\text{hypotenuse}}
2. Cosine Function:
\cos(\theta) = \frac{\text{adjacent side}}{\text{hypotenuse}}
3. Tangent Function:
\tan(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite side}}{\text{adjacent side}}
• how to solve it?
To solve trigonometric problems, you typically follow these steps:

1. Identify the Given Information: Determine the known values such as sides or
angles of the triangle.
2. Choose the Correct Trigonometric Ratio: Depending on the information given,
decide whether to use the sine, cosine, or tangent function.
3. Apply the Trigonometric Ratio: Substitute the known values into the appropriate
trigonometric formula to solve for the unknown side or angle.
4. Simplify and Calculate: Simplify the expression and calculate the missing side
or angle.
5. Check Your Solution: Ensure that your solution is reasonable and fits within the
context of the problem.

Here's an example to illustrate the process:


Given a right triangle with an angle \theta, where the opposite side is 3 units and
the hypotenuse is 5 units:

1. Identify Given: Opposite side = 3, Hypotenuse = 5.


2. Choose Ratio: We can use the sine function because we have the opposite side and
the hypotenuse.
3. Apply Ratio: \sin(\theta) = \frac{3}{5}.
4. Solve: To find \theta, take the arcsin (inverse sine) of \frac{3}{5}.
5. Check: Ensure the angle obtained makes sense in the context of the problem.
• can you give a problem in sine function and solve it step by step
Of course! Here's a sample problem involving the sine function:

Problem:
In a right triangle, if the angle \theta is 30 degrees and the length of the
opposite side is 4 units, find the length of the hypotenuse.

Solution:

1. Identify Given Information:

- Angle \theta = 30^\circ (given).


- Length of the opposite side = 4 units.
2. Choose the Sine Function:
We have the opposite side and need to find the hypotenuse. Therefore, we will use
the sine function which relates the opposite side and the hypotenuse:
\sin(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite side}}{\text{hypotenuse}}
3. Apply the Sine Function:
Substitute the known values into the sine function:
\sin(30^\circ) = \frac{4}{\text{hypotenuse}}
4. Find the Sine Value:
We know that \sin(30^\circ) = \frac{1}{2}, so we have:
\frac{1}{2} = \frac{4}{\text{hypotenuse}}
5. Solve for the Hypotenuse:
Cross multiply to solve for the hypotenuse:
2 \times 4 = 1 \times \text{hypotenuse}
8 = \text{hypotenuse}
6. Check the Solution:
Since \sin(30^\circ) = \frac{1}{2} and the hypotenuse is 8 units, the solution is
reasonable.

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is 8 units in this right triangle given the
angle \theta = 30^\circ and the length of the opposite side being 4 units.

•can you give a problem in cosine function and solve it step by step
Certainly! Here's an example problem involving the cosine function:

Problem:
In a right triangle, if the angle \theta is 45 degrees and the length of the
adjacent side is 6 units, find the length of the hypotenuse.

Solution:

1. Identify Given Information:

- Angle \theta = 45^\circ (given).


- Length of the adjacent side = 6 units.
2. Choose the Cosine Function:
Since we have the adjacent side and need to find the hypotenuse, we will use the
cosine function which relates the adjacent side and the hypotenuse:
\cos(\theta) = \frac{\text{adjacent side}}{\text{hypotenuse}}
3. Apply the Cosine Function:
Substitute the known values into the cosine function:
\cos(45^\circ) = \frac{6}{\text{hypotenuse}}
4. Find the Cosine Value:
We know that \cos(45^\circ) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, so we have:
\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{6}{\text{hypotenuse}}
5. Solve for the Hypotenuse:
Cross multiply to solve for the hypotenuse:
\sqrt{2} \times 6 = 1 \times \text{hypotenuse}
6\sqrt{2} = \text{hypotenuse}
6. Check the Solution:
Since \cos(45^\circ) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} and the hypotenuse is 6\sqrt{2} units,
the solution is consistent with the given information.

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is 6\sqrt{2} units in this right triangle
with the angle \theta = 45^\circ and the length of the adjacent side being 6 units.
•can you give a problem in tangent function and solve it step by step
Certainly! Here's a problem involving the tangent function:

Problem:
In a right triangle, if the angle \theta is 60 degrees and the length of the
adjacent side is 6 units, find the length of the opposite side.

Solution:

1. Identify Given Information:


- Angle \theta = 60^\circ (given).
- Length of the adjacent side = 6 units.
2. Choose the Tangent Function:
As we have the adjacent side and need to find the opposite side, we will use the
tangent function which relates the opposite side and the adjacent side:
\tan(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite side}}{\text{adjacent side}}
3. Apply the Tangent Function:
Substitute the given values into the tangent function:
\tan(60^\circ) = \frac{\text{opposite side}}{6}
4. Find the Tangent Value:
We know that \tan(60^\circ) = \sqrt{3}, so we have:
\sqrt{3} = \frac{\text{opposite side}}{6}
5. Solve for the Opposite Side:
Multiply both sides by 6 to find the length of the opposite side:
\text{opposite side} = 6 \times \sqrt{3} = 6\sqrt{3}
6. Check the Solution:
Using \tan(60^\circ) = \sqrt{3} and the opposite side as 6\sqrt{3} units, the
solution aligns with the given information.

Therefore, the length of the opposite side in this right triangle with the angle \
theta = 60^\circ and the adjacent side being 6 units is 6\sqrt{3} units.
