1 Trigonometric function: 2 Known: a triangle has three angles, ∠A, ∠C, ∠B, where ∠C is a right angle 3 The opposite sides of ∠A, ∠C, ∠B are a, c, b 4 sin = a / c 5 cos = b / c 6 tan = a / b 7 cot = b / a 8 sec = c / b 9 csc = c / a 10 11 The relation between circle and trigonometric function: 12 In Cartesian coordinate system: x0 ,y0 = 0,0 13 x0,y0 = coordinates of the center of the circle 14 r = radius of the circle = 12 15 The coordinates in the 30-degree direction: 16 x1 = r * sin(30 * pi / 180 ) 17 y1 = r * cos(30 * pi / 180 ) 18 19 Analysis: 20 pi = pi 21 circle length = r * 2 * pi 22 then degree scale = degrees * 2 * pi / 360 = degrees * pi / 180
