Trigonometry basics deal with the measurement of angles and problems related to angles. There are three basic functions in trigonometry: sine, cosine, and tangent.
These three basic ratios or functions can be used to derive other important trigonometric functions: cotangent, secant, and cosecant.
All the important concepts covered under trigonometry are based on these functions. Hence, further, we need to learn these functions and their respective formulas at first to understand trigonometry.
Hypotenuse - This is the side opposite to the right angle. There are basic six ratios in trigonometry that help in establishing a relationship between the ratio of sides of a right triangle with the angle. The value of the other three functions: cot, sec, and cosec depend on tan, cos, and sin respectively as given below.
The trigonometric table is made up of trigonometric ratios that are interrelated to each other — sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant, cotangent. These ratios, in short, are written as sin, cos, tan, cosec, sec, cot, and are taken for standard angle values.
You can refer to the trigonometric table chart to know more about these ratios. Trigonometric angles are the angles in a right-angled triangle using which different trigonometric functions can be represented. The trigonometric values for these angles can be observed directly in a trigonometric table. Trigonometry angle can be expressed in terms of trigonometric ratios as,.
There are different formulas in trigonometry depicting the relationships between trigonometric ratios and the angles for different quadrants. The basic trigonometry formulas list is given below:. Here a, b, c are the lengths of the sides of the triangle and A, B, and C are the angle of the triangle. The complete list of trigonometric formulas involving trigonometry ratios and trigonometry identities is listed for easy access. Here's a list of all the trigonometric formulas for you to learn and revise.
Different properties of a trigonometric function like domain, range, etc can be studied using the trigonometric function graphs. The graphs of basic trigonometric functions- Sine and Cosine are given below:.

Unit circle can be used to calculate the values of basic trigonometric functions- sine, cosine, and tangent. The following diagram shows how trigonometric ratios sine and cosine can be represented in a unit circle. In Trigonometric Identities, an equation is called an identity when it is true for all values of the variables involved.
Similarly, an equation involving trigonometric ratios of an angle is called a trigonometric identity, if it is true for all values of the angles involved.
In trigonometric identities , you will get to learn more about the Sum and Difference Identities. The three important trigonometric identities are:. See Solving Triangles for more details. Similar to Sine, Cosine and Tangent, there are three other trigonometric functions which are made by dividing one side by another:.
The Trigonometric Identities are equations that are true for all right-angled triangles. The Triangle Identities are equations that are true for all triangles they don't have to have a right angle. Why a Right-Angled Triangle? Why is this triangle so important? Imagine we can measure along and up but want to know the direct distance and angle: Trigonometry can find that missing angle and distance.
Or maybe we have a distance and angle and need to "plot the dot" along and up: Questions like these are common in engineering, computer animation and more. And trigonometry gives the answers! Example: How Tall is The Tree?
