Derivation of Trigonometric Ratios

The document discusses the derivation of trigonometric ratios from the sides of a right-angled triangle, including sine, cosine, and tangent. It highlights the applications of trigonometry in various fields, such as music and sound engineering, and provides a brief history of its development in ancient civilizations. Trigonometry is essential for solving problems related to angles and sides in geometry and has a significant impact on everyday life.

DERIVATION OF

TRIGONOMETRIC
RATIOS
BY
V. K. SRIVARSHA
DERIVATION OF TRIGONOMETRIC
RATIOS
TRIGONOMETRIC RATIOS IN TRIGONOMETRY ARE DERIVED FROM
THE THREE SIDES OF A RIGHT-ANGLED TRIANGLE: THE HYPOTENUSE,
THE BASE (ADJACENT) AND THE PERPENDICULAR (OPPOSITE). THESE
TRIGONOMETRIC FORMULAS AND TRIGONOMETRIC IDENTITIES ARE
USED WIDELY IN ALL SCIENCES RELATED TO GEOMETRY, MECHANICS
AND MANY OTHERS.
TRIGONOMETRY

THE BRANCH CALLED “TRIGONOMETRY”


BASICALLY DEALS WITH THE STUDY OF THE RELATIONSHIP
BETWEEN THE SIDES AND ANGLES OF THE RIGHT-ANGLE
TRIANGLE. HENCE, IT HELPS TO FIND THE MISSING OR
UNKNOWN ANGLES OR SIDES OF A RIGHT TRIANGLE
USING THE TRIGONOMETRIC FORMULAS, FUNCTIONS OR
TRIGONOMETRIC IDENTITIES.
DERIVATION OF SIN RATIO

BASICALLY, SINE IS THE RATIO


BETWEEN THE SIDE OPPOSITE THE
ANGLE AND THE HYPOTENUSE SO IF WE
CONSIDER SIN 0° WHICH MEANS THAT
THE ANGLE BETWEEN THE HYPOTENUSE
AND ITS ADJACENT SIDE (WHICH IS BASE
HERE) IS 0°.
DERIVATION OF COS RATIO

COSINE: THE COSINE RATIO FOR


ANY GIVEN ANGLE IS DEFINED AS
THE RATIO OF THE BASE TO THE
HYPOTENUSE. IN THE GIVEN
TRIANGLE, COSINE OF ANGLE Θ CAN
BE GIVEN AS, COS Θ = BC/AC.
DERIVATION OF TAN RATIO

TANGENT: THE TANGENT RATIO FOR


ANY GIVEN ANGLE IS DEFINED AS THE
RATIO OF THE PERPENDICULAR TO THE
BASE. IN THE GIVEN TRIANGLE, THE
TANGENT OF ANGLE Θ CAN BE GIVEN
AS, TAN Θ = AB/BC.
CAN TRIGONOMETRY BE USED IN
EVERYDAY LIFE?

TRIGONOMETRY MAY NOT HAVE ITS DIRECT APPLICATIONS IN SOLVING


PRACTICAL ISSUES, BUT IT IS USED IN VARIOUS THINGS THAT WE ENJOY SO
MUCH. FOR EXAMPLE MUSIC, AS YOU KNOW SOUND TRAVELS IN WAVES AND
THIS PATTERN THOUGH NOT AS REGULAR AS A SINE OR COSINE FUNCTION, IS
STILL USEFUL IN DEVELOPING COMPUTER MUSIC. A COMPUTER CANNOT
OBVIOUSLY LISTEN TO AND COMPREHEND MUSIC AS WE DO, SO COMPUTERS
REPRESENT IT MATHEMATICALLY BY ITS CONSTITUENT SOUND WAVES. AND
THIS MEANS SOUND ENGINEERS NEED TO KNOW AT LEAST THE BASICS OF
TRIGONOMETRY. AND THE GOOD MUSIC THAT THESE SOUND ENGINEERS
PRODUCE IS USED TO CALM US FROM OUR HECTIC, STRESS FULL LIFE – ALL
THANKS TO TRIGONOMETRY.
HISTORY OF TRIGONOMETRY

TRIGONOMETRY HAS A RICH HISTORY THAT DATES BACK


TO ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS. IT ORIGINATED IN ANCIENT
GREECE AND INDIA, WITH EARLY CONTRIBUTIONS FROM
MATHEMATICIANS LIKE HIPPARCHUS AND ARYABHATA. THESE
ANCIENT SCHOLARS DEVELOPED TRIGONOMETRIC
CONCEPTS TO SOLVE PROBLEMS RELATED TO ASTRONOMY
AND GEOMETRY.
