  • The Proofs of the Law of Tangents
    798 SCHOOL SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS THE PROOFS OF THE LAW OF TANGENTS. BY R. M. MATHEWS, " . Riverside, California. In the triangle ABC let a, /?, y be the angles at the respective vertices and a, b, c the sides opposite. The title "law of tangents" is used to denote the trigonometric formula ab tan (aP) _ 3^ a+b ~~ tan 0+/3) and each of those formed by cyclic^ permutation of the letters. The proofs of this theorem in American textbooks stand in decided contrast to those of the law of sines and law of cosines. The proofs of these are based .directly on the triangle and are such as to suggest the one needed extension in definition; when a is an obtuse angle. sin a,== sin(180a), cos a = cos (180a). These two definitions, be it observed, require no notion of co- ordinates or of quadrants. On the other hand, in ten of a group of twelve American texts, the only proof of the law of tangents is by algebraic manipulation from the law of sines and involv- ing the factor formulas for the sum and difference of two sines. The proofs of these two formulas, being based on the addition formulas, are invariably preceded by the definition of the func- tions for the general angle, reduction to the first quadrant, and proof of the regular list of trigonometric identities. Thus the attainment of a formula that applies to triangles only seems to depend on much formal development of general and analytic trigonometry. The law of tangents can be proved directly from a figure, however.

  • Trigonometry and Providing Experience with Its Methods and Applications in Order to Prepare Students for Study of Higher Mathematics
    Seymour Public Schools Curriculum The Mathematics Department believes its students must learn the importance of mathematics, the integration of different branches of mathematics, the application of math to real-life problems, and the connections between mathematics and other disciplines. This course is concerned with developing the students’ understanding of the concepts of trigonometry and providing experience with its methods and applications in order to prepare students for study of higher mathematics. In this unit, relations, functions, and the distance formula are discussed and related to graphs in the coordinate plane. A smooth transition is thus provided for defining the six trigonometric functions using the concept of rotation around the unit circle. Trigonometric functions of special angles as well as evaluating trigonometric functions using a calculator are presented. A number of application problems are introduced and solved throughout the unit. Grade: 11-12 Trigonometry Trigonometric Functions Common Core F-IF Interpreting Functions Standards F-TF Trigonometric Functions G-SRT Similarity, Right Triangles, and Trigonometry G-C Circles Enduring Trigonometric functions can be expressed as a ratio of the sides of a right triangle.

Questions How can trigonometric values of an angle be evaluated? Content Understand the concept of a function and use function notation Standards: F-IF-1 Understand that a function from one set (called the domain) to another set (called the range) assigns to each element of the domain exactly one element of the range.

    EARTH-REFERENCED AIRCRAFT NAVIGATION AND SURVEILLANCE ANALYSIS Michael Geyer S π/2 - α - θ d h α N U Re Re θ O Michael Geyer Frederick de Wit Navigation Vertical Plane Model Peter Mercator Federico Rostagno Spherical Surface Model Surveillance Project Memorandum — June 2016 DOT-VNTSC-FAA-16-12 Prepared for: Federal Aviation Administration Wake Turbulence Research Office DOT Volpe Center FOREWORD This document addresses a basic function of aircraft (and other vehicle) surveillance and navi- gation systems analyses — quantifying the geometric relationship of two or more locations relative to each other and to the earth. Here, geometry means distances and angles, including their projections in a defined coordinate frame. Applications that fit well with these methods include (a) planning a vehicle’s route; (b) determining the coverage region of a radar or radio installation; and (c) calculating a vehicle’s latitude and longitude from measurements (e.g., of slant- and spherical-ranges or range differences, azimuth and elevation angles, and altitudes). The approach advocated is that the three-dimensional problems inherent in navigation/surveil- lance analyses should, to the extent possible, be re-cast as a sequence of sub-problems: . Vertical-Plane Formulation (two-dimensional (2D) problem illustrated in top right panel on cover) — Considers the vertical plane containing two problem-specific locations and the center of a spherical earth, and utilizes plane trigonometry as the primary analysis method. This formulation provides closed-form solutions. Spherical-Surface Formulation (2D problem illustrated in bottom left panel on cover) — Considers two or three problem-specific locations on the surface of a spherical earth; utilizes spherical trigonometry as the primary analysis method.

  • Chapter 8 Families of Functions
    Chapter 8 Families of Functions One very important area of real analysis is the study of the properties of real valued functions. We introduced the general properties of functions earlier in Chapter 6. In this chapter we want to look at specific functions and families of functions to see what properties really belong to the area of analysis separate from algebra or topology. We will take on the functions in a somewhat orderly manner. 8.1 Polynomials The polynomials in the study of functions play a similar role to the integers in our study of numbers. They are our basic building blocks. Likewise, when we really start looking at the family of polynomials most of the questions we have are really algebraic in nature and not analytic, just like the study of integers. In general a polynomial is an expression in which a finite number of constants and variables are combined using only addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non- negative whole number exponents (raising to a power). A polynomial function is a function defined by evaluating a polynomial. For example, the function f defined by f(x)= x3 x is a polynomial function. Polynomial functions are an important class of smooth −functions — smooth meaning that they are infinitely differentiable, i.e., they have derivatives of all finite orders. Because of their simple structure, polynomials are easy to evaluate, and are used extensively in numerical analysis for polynomial interpolation or to numerically inte- grate more complex functions. Computationally, they require only multiplication and addition. Any division is division of coefficients and subtraction is just the addition of the additive inverse.

  • A History of Trigonometry Education in the United States: 1776-1900
    A History of Trigonometry Education in the United States: 1776-1900 Jenna Van Sickle Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2011 ©2011 Jenna Van Sickle All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT A History of Trigonometry Education in the United States: 1776-1900 Jenna Van Sickle This dissertation traces the history of the teaching of elementary trigonometry in United States colleges and universities from 1776 to 1900. This study analyzes textbooks from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, reviews in contemporary periodicals, course catalogs, and secondary sources. Elementary trigonometry was a topic of study in colleges throughout this time period, but the way in which trigonometry was taught and defined changed drastically, as did the scope and focus of the subject. Because of advances in analytic trigonometry by Leonhard Euler and others in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the trigonometric functions came to be defined as ratios, rather than as line segments. This change came to elementary trigonometry textbooks beginning in antebellum America and the ratios came to define trigonometric functions in elementary trigonometry textbooks by the end of the nineteenth century. During this time period, elementary trigonometry textbooks grew to have a much more comprehensive treatment of the subject and considered trigonometric functions in many different ways. In the late eighteenth century, trigonometry was taught as a topic in a larger mathematics course and was used only to solve triangles for applications in surveying and navigation. Textbooks contained few pedagogical tools and only the most basic of trigonometric formulas.
