Trigonometry Identities

Trigonometry is one of most ancient branches of mathematics. The word "trigonometry"

is made up of two Greek words - "trigonon" meaning "triangle" and "metron" referring to
"measure". Thus, in this branch, we come across with the relationships of angles and sides of
triangles, especially right-angled triangle.

This subject is being utilized in a number of fields apart from mathematics, such as -
chemistry, physics, optics, statistics, biology, probability theory, physical sciences, economics,
in almost all the branches of engineering etc.

Several newly-developed areas do use trigonometry, which are - navigation, music

theory, acoustics, audio synthesis, medical imaging (ultrasound and CAT scan), cryptology,
meteorology, seismology, oceanography, geodesy, image compression, architecture, phonetics,
computer graphics, crystallography, cartography and game theory.

Trigonometric functions are elementary functions, the argument of which is an angle.

Trigonometric functions describe the relation between the sides and angles of a right triangle.
Applications of trigonometric functions are extremely diverse. For example, any periodic
processes can be represented as a sum of trigonometric functions (Fourier series). These
functions often appear in the solution of differential equations and functional equations.

The trigonometric functions

Include the following 6 functions: sine, cosine, tangent, cotangent, secant,

and cosecant. For each of these functions, there is an inverse trigonometric funct ion

Derivative of a Function

Slopes of linear equations are constant across the entire line. Intuitively, you may tell

yourself that since we are considering a curve there won't be a constant slope for the entire

function. That assumption would be correct! When attempting to find the slope of curves, we

seek to find an equation that we can use to give us the slope of a line tangent to the curve at

any given value of x. using this equation gives us the instantaneous rate of change - or the

slope at a specific point on the curve.

Definition and Formula

The equation that we find is known as the derivative of the function. As previously

stated, the derivative is defined as the instantaneous rate of change, or slope, at a specific point
of a function. It gives you the exact slope at a specific point along the curve. The derivative is

denoted by (dy/dx), which simply stands for the derivative of y with respect to x.

Finding the derivative or slope of a curve at a specific point is an application of the topic

of limits that you've learned previously. To find the derivative, use the following formula:

Derivative formula:

Antiderivatives

Antiderivatives are the inverse operations of derivatives or the backward operation which goes
from the derivative of a function to the original function itself in addition with a constant.
Mathematically, the antiderivative of a function on an interval I is stated as

F ′ (x) = f (x) for all x in an interval

In general, let the function f (x) be continuous on the closed interval [a,b]. Then, the
antiderivative for f ∈ [a,b] is F (x) if and only if F(x) is a continuous function on the closed interval
[a,b] and F ′ (x)= f (x) for all x ∈ (a,b). This is commonly named as “indefinite integral”, which is
given below:

To find an antiderivative for a function f, we can often reverse the process of differentiation. For
example, if f = x4, then an antiderivative of f is F = x5, which can be found by reversing the
power rule. Notice that not only is x5 an antiderivative of f, but so are x5 + 4, x5 + 6, etc.
