    Trigonometry deals with relationships between sides and angles of triangles. It originated over 4000 years ago to calculate sundials and was first recorded by a Greek mathematician in 150 BC. A right triangle has one 90 degree angle, with the hypotenuse opposite this angle and the other two sides called legs. Pythagoras' theorem states that in a right triangle the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the legs. Trigonometric ratios relate the sides of a right triangle to calculate functions like sine, cosine, and tangent. Trigonometry has many applications in fields like construction, astronomy, engineering, and more.

    Trigonometry

    • Trigonometry is derived from Greek words trigonon(three


    angles) and metron (measure).
    • Trigonometry is the branch of mathematics which deals
    with triangles, particularly triangles in a plane where one
    angle of the triangle is 900.
    • Trigonometry specifically deals with relationships between the
    sides and the angles of a triangle, i.e. on the trigonometric
    functions, and with calculations based on these functions.
    History
    • The origins of trigonometry can be traced to the ci-
    vilizations of ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia and the
    Indus Valley, more than 4000 years ago.
    • Some experts believe that trigonometry
    was originally invented to calculate
    sundials.
    • The first recorded use of trigonometry
    came from the Hellinistic mathematician
    Circa in 150 BC.
    • Many mathemiticians like Aryabhatta, Ibn Yunus
    and Al-Kashi also contributed significantly.
    Right Triangle

    • A triangle in which one angle is


    equal to 900 is called a right angled
    triangle.
    • The side opposite to the right angle
    is known as hypotenuse.
    AC is the hypotenuse
    • The other two sides are known as
    legs or base and altitude
    AB and AC are base and altitude
    respectively
    Pythagoras Theorem

    • In any right triangle, the area of the square


    whose side is the hypotenuse is equal to the
    sum of the areas of the squares whose sides are
    the two legs.

    • In the figure,
    AC2 = AB2 + BC2
    Trigonometric Ratios

     Sine (sin) Opposite side / Hypotenuse


     Cosine (cos) Adjacent side / Hypotenuse
     Tangent (tan) Opposite side / Adjacent side
     Cosecant (cosec) Hypotenuse / Opposite side
     Secant (sec) Hypotenuse / Adjacent side
     Cotangent (cot) Adjacent side / Opposite side
    Value for Trigonometric Functions for Angle C

    • Sinθ = AB/AC

    • Cosθ = BC/AC

    • Tanθ = AB/BC

    • Cosecθ = AC/AB

    • Secθ = AC/BC

    • Cotθ = AC/AB
    Value of Trigonometric Functions
    Trigonometric Identities
    Some Applications of Trigonometry

    • Main use is in Construction or else this field of mathematics


    can be applied in astronomy,navigation, acoustics medical
    imaging, civil engineering, seismology, electrical
    engineering phonetics, chemistry, number theory and many
    more.
    Real life Applications of Trigonometry
    Conclusion

    • Trigonometry is a branch of Mathematics with


    several important and useful applications.
    Hence, it attracts more and more research with
    several theories published year after year.
