TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS
3.1 Overview
3.1.1 The word trigonometry is derived from the Greek words trigon and metron which means measuring the sides of a triangle. An angle is the amount of rotation of a revolving line with respect to a fixed line. If the rotation is in clockwise direction the angle is negative and it is positive if the rotation is in the anti-clockwise direction. Usually we follow two types of conventions for measuring angles, i.e., (i) Sexagesimal system (ii) Circular system. In sexagesimal system, the unit of measurement is degree. If the rotation from the initial to terminal side is
1. The classifications in this system are as follows: 1 = 60 1 = 60 In circular system of measurement, the unit of measurement is radian. One radian is the angle subtended, at the centre of a circle, by an arc equal in length to the radius of the circle. The length s of an arc PQ of a circle of radius r is given by s = r, where is the angle subtended by the arc PQ at the centre of the circle measured in terms of radians. 3.1.2 Relation between degree and radian The circumference of a circle always bears a constant ratio to its diameter. This constant 22 ratio is a number denoted by which is taken approximately as for all practical 7 purpose. The relationship between degree and radian measurements is as follows: 2 right angle = 180 = radians

3.1.3 Trigonometric functions Trigonometric ratios are defined for acute angles as the ratio of the sides of a right angled triangle. The extension of trigonometric ratios to any angle in terms of radian measure (real numbers) are called trigonometric functions. The signs of trigonometric functions in different quadrants have been given in the following table:

n are called allied or related angles 2 and n 360 are called coterminal angles. For general reduction, we have the n following rules. The value of any trigonometric function for ( ) is numerically 2 equal to (a) the value of the same function if n is an even integer with algebaric sign of the function as per the quadrant in which angles lie. (b) corresponding cofunction of if n is an odd integer with algebraic sign of the function for the quadrant in which it lies. Here sine and cosine; tan and cot; sec and cosec are cofunctions of each other.
3.1.7 Functions of negative angles Let be any angle. Then sin ( ) = sin , cos ( ) = cos tan ( ) = tan , cot ( ) = cot sec ( ) = sec , cosec ( ) = cosec 3.1.8 Some formulae regarding compound angles An angle made up of the sum or differences of two or more angles is called a compound angle. The basic results in this direction are called trigonometric identies as given below: (i) sin (A + B) = sin A cos B + cos A sin B (ii) sin (A B) = sin A cos B cos A sin B (iii) cos (A + B) = cos A cos B sin A sin B (iv) cos (A B) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B

unknown angles for which the functions are defined. The solutions of a trigonometric equations for which 0 < 2 are called principal solutions. The expression involving integer n which gives all solutions of a trigonometric equation is called the general solution. General Solution of Trigonometric Equations (i) If sin = sin for some angle , then = n + (1)n for n Z, gives general solution of the given equation (ii) If cos = cos for some angle , then = 2 n , n Z, gives general solution of the given equation (iii) If tan = tan or cot = cot , then = n + , n Z, gives general solution for both equations (iv) The general value of satisfying any of the equations sin2 = sin2 , cos2 = cos2 and tan2 = tan2 is given by = n (v) The general value of satisfying equations sin = sin and cos = cos simultaneously is given by = 2n + , n Z. (vi) To find the solution of an equation of the form a cos + b sin = c, we put a = r cos and b = r sin, so that r2 = a2 + b2 and tan =
Thus we find a cos + b sin = c changed into the form r (cos cos + sin sin ) = c or r cos ( ) = c and hence cos ( ) =

Solution Given that circular wire is of radius 3 cm, so when it is cut then its length = 2 3 = 6 cm. Again, it is being placed along a circular hoop of radius 48 cm. Here, s = 6 cm is the length of arc and r = 48 cm is the radius of the circle. Therefore, the angle , in radian, subtended by the arc at the centre of the circle is given by =
