Move protected | The Canadarm2 robotic manipulator on the International Space Station is operated by controlling the angles of its joints. Calculating the final position of the astronaut at the end of the arm requires repeated use of the trigonometric functions of those angles. | | Canadarm2 | International Space Station | All of the trigonometric functions of an angle θ can be constructed geometrically in terms of a unit circle centered at O. | | trigonometric functions | Greek | mathematics | triangles | plane | angle | trigonometric functions | pure mathematics | applied mathematics | secondary schools | precalculus | spherical trigonometry | spheres | astronomy | navigation | Table of Trigonometry, 1728 Cyclopaedia | | Cyclopaedia | History of trigonometry | | cite | references or sources | reliable sources | Unverifiable | sailing | astronomy | ancient Egypt | Mesopotamia | Indus Valley | India | citation needed | Babylonian | base sixty | Hellenistic mathematician | Hipparchus | table | sine | Ptolemy | Sinhalese | Sri Lanka | Anuradhapura | gradient | citation needed | Aryabhata | sine | cosine | cosine | versine | Brahmagupta | interpolation | Newton | Stirling | Abul Wáfa | tangent function | Ibn Yunus | Persian | mathematician | Omar Khayyám | approximation theory | hyperbola | Bhaskara | spherical trigonometry | Persian | mathematician | Nasir al-Din Tusi | al-Kashi | Timurid | Ulugh Beg | Timur | Bartholemaeus Pitiscus | In this right triangle: sin A = a/c; cos A = b/c; tan A = a/b. | | angle | complementary angles | shape | similarity | ratios | trigonometric functions | reciprocals | inverse functions | trigonometric identities | law of sines | law of cosines | polygon | Graphs of the functions sin(x) and cos(x), where the angle x is measured in radians. | | Graphing process of y = sin(x) using a unit circle. | | Graphing process of y = tan(x) using a unit circle. | | Graphing process of y = csc(x) using a unit circle. | | radians | unit circle | trigonometric function | periodic | calculus | infinite series | complex numbers | Euler's | De Moivre's | mnemonics | ethnographic | Singaporean | Hokkien | Singapore | Generating trigonometric tables | mathematical tables | interpolate | Slide rules | scientific calculators | Grad | programming languages | floating point unit | Uses of trigonometry | applications of trigonometry | triangulation | astronomy | geography | satellite navigation systems | periodic functions | light | astronomy | navigation | music theory | acoustics | optics | electronics | probability theory | statistics | biology | medical imaging | CAT scans | ultrasound | pharmacy | chemistry | number theory | cryptology | seismology | meteorology | oceanography | physical sciences | surveying | geodesy | architecture | phonetics | economics | electrical engineering | mechanical engineering | civil engineering | computer graphics | cartography | crystallography | game development | Marine sextants like this are used to measure the angle of the sun or stars with respect to the horizon.
