    1. Introduction

    Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the relationships between the sides and angles of
    triangles. It plays a crucial role in fields like physics, engineering, and astronomy. The name “trigonometry”
    comes from the Greek words “trigonon” (triangle) and “metron” (measure).

    2. History and Origin of Trigonometry

    Trigonometry originated in ancient civilizations such as Babylon, Egypt, and India. Early mathematicians
    used it for astronomy and navigation. Greek mathematician Hipparchus (circa 190–120 BCE) is often
    regarded as the father of trigonometry. Indian mathematicians like Aryabhata and Bhaskara also made
    significant contributions.

    3. Meaning of Trigonometry

    Trigonometry studies the relationships between angles and side lengths in triangles. It involves functions
    like sine, cosine, and tangent to calculate unknown measurements.

    4. Trigonometric Ratios

    Trigonometric ratios are used to express the relationship between the angles and sides of a right triangle:

    • Sine (sin) = Opposite side / Hypotenuse

    • Cosine (cos) = Adjacent side / Hypotenuse

    • Tangent (tan) = Opposite side / Adjacent side


    • Cosecant (csc) = 1 / sin

    • Secant (sec) = 1 / cos

    • Cotangent (cot) = 1 / tan

    5. Trigonometric Ratios of Standard Angles

    The common standard angles are 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90°. Their values are:

    6. Trigonometric Ratios of Complementary Angles

    Complementary angles add up to 90°. The following identities hold true:

    • sin(90° − θ) = cos(θ)

    • cos(90° − θ) = sin(θ)

    • tan(90° − θ) = cot(θ)

    • cot(90° − θ) = tan(θ)

    • sec(90° − θ) = csc(θ)

    • csc(90° − θ) = sec(θ)

    7. Trigonometric Identities

    Trigonometric identities are equations involving trigonometric functions that are true for all values of the
    included angles:

    • Pythagorean Identities:
    • Sum and Difference Formulas:

    sin(A ± B) = sinA cosB ± cosA sinB

    cos(A ± B) = cosA cosB ∓ sinA sinB

    8. Applications of Trigonometry

    Trigonometry has a wide range of applications, including:

    1. Navigation: Used to calculate distances between points on maps or oceans.

    2. Architecture: Helps determine angles and lengths for constructing buildings.

    3. Astronomy: Used for calculating distances between celestial objects.

    4. Engineering: Essential in designing mechanical structures like bridges.

    9. Conclusion

    Trigonometry is a fundamental mathematical tool that connects geometry and algebra. Its applications are
    vast, from day-to-day tasks like navigation to highly advanced scientific research.
