  • Hyperbolic Trigonometry in Two-Dimensional Space-Time Geometry
    Hyperbolic trigonometry in two-dimensional space-time geometry F. Catoni, R. Cannata, V. Catoni, P. Zampetti ENEA; Centro Ricerche Casaccia; Via Anguillarese, 301; 00060 S.Maria di Galeria; Roma; Italy January 22, 2003 Summary.- By analogy with complex numbers, a system of hyperbolic numbers can be intro- duced in the same way: z = x + hy; h2 = 1 x, y R . As complex numbers are linked to the { ∈ } Euclidean geometry, so this system of numbers is linked to the pseudo-Euclidean plane geometry (space-time geometry). In this paper we will show how this system of numbers allows, by means of a Cartesian representa- tion, an operative definition of hyperbolic functions using the invariance respect to special relativity Lorentz group. From this definition, by using elementary mathematics and an Euclidean approach, it is straightforward to formalise the pseudo-Euclidean trigonometry in the Cartesian plane with the same coherence as the Euclidean trigonometry. PACS 03 30 - Special Relativity PACS 02.20. Hj - Classical groups and Geometries 1 Introduction Complex numbers are strictly related to the Euclidean geometry: indeed their invariant (the module) arXiv:math-ph/0508011v1 3 Aug 2005 is the same as the Pythagoric distance (Euclidean invariant) and their unimodular multiplicative group is the Euclidean rotation group. It is well known that these properties allow to use complex numbers for representing plane vectors. In the same way hyperbolic numbers, an extension of complex numbers [1, 2] defined as z = x + hy; h2 =1 x, y R , { ∈ } are strictly related to space-time geometry [2, 3, 4]. Indeed their square module given by1 z 2 = 2 2 | | zz˜ x y is the Lorentz invariant of two dimensional special relativity, and their unimodular multiplicative≡ − group is the special relativity Lorentz group [2].

  • 7 TRIGONOMETRY Objectives in This Chapter You Will Learn About • Revision of Solution of Triangles
    7 TRIGONOMETRY Objectives In this chapter you will learn about • Revision of solution of triangles. • Solving problems in 2–dimensions and in 3-dimensions by constructing and interpreting models. 1 | P a g e 7.1 Revision In previous grades, we dealt with the types of triangles named according to side and angles. In trigonometry, we are able to find the unknown sides and angles when given the magnitudes of the minimum required number of angles and sides. We looked at two main types of triangles: • Right angled triangles. • Non-right angled triangles Right angled triangles When a right angled triangle is given, the following may be useful: • Pythagoras theorem • Definitions of Trigonometric ratios Non-right angled triangles • Sine rule • Cosine rule • Area rule NOTE: • Not all triangles that you need to solve are right-angled triangles. In grade 11 you learned about rules which can be used to solve non-right-angled triangles. • Theorems/axioms involving lines, triangles, quadrilateral and circles are also useful. 7.1.1 The Sine Rule The sine rule expresses the relationship between the two of the sides of the triangles and two of the angles. In any triangle, a is the side opposite angle A, b is the side opposite angle B and c is the side opposite angle C, then the lengthof any side the length of any other side = the sine of the angle opposite that side the sine of the angle opposite that side That is: 2 | P a g e In ABC, a b c = = sin A sinB sinC This can also be written as: sin A sinB sinC = = a b c The sine rule can be used when the following information about a triangle is given: • Two sides and an angle opposite to one of the two sides • One side and any two angles Worked Example 1 Solve the triangle given below.

  • 4 Trigonometry and Complex Numbers
    4 Trigonometry and Complex Numbers Trigonometry developed from the study of triangles, particularly right triangles, and the relations between the lengths of their sides and the sizes of their angles. The trigono- metric functions that measure the relationships between the sides of similar triangles have far-reaching applications that extend far beyond their use in the study of triangles. Complex numbers were developed, in part, because they complete, in a useful and ele- gant fashion, the study of the solutions of polynomial equations. Complex numbers are useful not only in mathematics, but in the other sciences as well. Trigonometry Most of the trigonometric computations in this chapter use six basic trigonometric func- tions The two fundamental trigonometric functions, sine and cosine, can be de¿ned in terms of the unit circle—the set of points in the Euclidean plane of distance one from the origin. A point on this circle has coordinates +frv w> vlq w,,wherew is a measure (in radians) of the angle at the origin between the positive {-axis and the ray from the ori- gin through the point measured in the counterclockwise direction. The other four basic trigonometric functions can be de¿ned in terms of these two—namely, vlq { 4 wdq { @ vhf { @ frv { frv { frv { 4 frw { @ fvf { @ vlq { vlq { 3 ?w? For 5 , these functions can be found as a ratio of certain sides of a right triangle that has one angle of radian measure w. Trigonometric Functions The symbols used for the six basic trigonometric functions—vlq, frv, wdq, frw, vhf, fvf—are abbreviations for the words cosine, sine, tangent, cotangent, secant, and cose- cant, respectively.You can enter these trigonometric functions and many other functions either from the keyboard in mathematics mode or from the dialog box that drops down when you click or choose Insert + Math Name.

  • Trigonometry for the Solution of Triangles
    Trigonometry for the Solution of Triangles _________________________ name Trigonometry was originally a branch of geometry. Its name means triangle measure (from trigos + metry). If two angles of a triangle have measures which are known, then the third angle can be calculated by knowing that the three angles have a sum of 180o. This does not require any knowledge of trigonometry. mCA B = 38.09 m ACB = 75.23 mFDE = 33.75 F mGEF = 102.25 C A D E B G So m < B = ___________ and m < F = ______________ If any two sides of a right triangle have lengths which are known, then the length of the third side requires the use of the Pythagorean Theorem. This also does not require any knowledge of trigonometry. J K M 3 12.4 45.1 H L 8 I h2 + j2 = i2 m2 + l2 = k2 32 + 82 = i2 12.42 + l2 = 45.12 so i2 = 73 so l2 = 45.12 – 12.42 i = 73 8.544 l = 1880.25 43.362 When there is a combination of information about angles and sides, then there is a need for additional knowledge. This is where trigonometry comes in. Trigonometry and Triangles page 2 To see how the ideas of trigonometry are developed, we use the ideas of the ratios of the three sides of right triangle. (Later, an extension of these ideas allows trigonometry to be used on triangles which do not have right angles.) Using the ideas about similar triangles (which are triangles which have the same shapes but different sizes), F G H I E D C B A all of the right triangles are similar.

These are called the elements of Triangle. If any three out of six elements at least one side are given them the remaining three elements can be determined by the use of trigonometric functions and their tables. This process of finding the elements of triangle is called the solution of the triangle. First we discuss the solution of right angled triangles i.e. triangles which have one angle given equal to a right angle. In solving right angled triangle denotes the right angle. We shall use the following cases B Case-I: When the hypotenuse and one Side is given. c β Let a & c be the given side and a hypotenuse respectively. Then angle can be found by the relation. γ Sin = A b C Fig.5.1 Also angle β and side “b” can be obtained by the relations β= 90o and Cos = B Case-II: β c β When the two sides a and b are a given.

  • 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.
