A Genetic Context for Understanding the Trigonometric Functions Daniel E. Otero∗ July 22, 2019 Trigonometry is concerned with the measurements of angles about a central point (or of arcs of circles centered at that point) and quantities, geometrical and otherwise, that depend on the sizes of such angles (or the lengths of the corresponding arcs). It is one of those subjects that has become a standard part of the toolbox of every scientist and applied mathematician. It is the goal of this project to impart to students some of the story of where and how its central ideas first emerged, in an attempt to provide context for a modern study of this mathematical theory.

  • Understand the Principles and Properties of Axiomatic (Synthetic
    Michael Bonomi Understand the principles and properties of axiomatic (synthetic) geometries (0016) Euclidean Geometry: To understand this part of the CST I decided to start off with the geometry we know the most and that is Euclidean: − Euclidean geometry is a geometry that is based on axioms and postulates − Axioms are accepted assumptions without proofs − In Euclidean geometry there are 5 axioms which the rest of geometry is based on − Everybody had no problems with them except for the 5 axiom the parallel postulate − This axiom was that there is only one unique line through a point that is parallel to another line − Most of the geometry can be proven without the parallel postulate − If you do not assume this postulate, then you can only prove that the angle measurements of right triangle are ≤ 180° Hyperbolic Geometry: − We will look at the Poincare model − This model consists of points on the interior of a circle with a radius of one − The lines consist of arcs and intersect our circle at 90° − Angles are defined by angles between the tangent lines drawn between the curves at the point of intersection − If two lines do not intersect within the circle, then they are parallel − Two points on a line in hyperbolic geometry is a line segment − The angle measure of a triangle in hyperbolic geometry < 180° Projective Geometry: − This is the geometry that deals with projecting images from one plane to another this can be like projecting a shadow − This picture shows the basics of Projective geometry − The geometry does not preserve length

  • Undergraduate Students' Meanings for Central Angle and Inscribed Angle
    The Mathematics Educator 2020 Vol. 29, No. 1, 53–84 Undergraduate Students’ Meanings for Central Angle and Inscribed Angle Biyao Liang and Carlos Castillo-Garsow Contributing to research on students’ multifaceted meanings for angles (e.g., angles as ray pairs, as regions, and as turns), we report on three undergraduate students’ meanings for central and inscribed angles in circles. Specifically, we characterize how these meanings govern their mathematical activities when engaging in a circle geometry task, including their experienced perturbations and reconciliation of those perturbations. Our conceptual analysis reveals that some meanings are productive for students to conceive of a reflex angle in a circle and the correspondence between a central and an inscribed angle, while other meanings are limited. Angle and angle measure are critical topics in mathematics curricula. Writers of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (National Governors Association Center for Best Practices & Council of Chief State School Officers, 2010) specify angle-related content in Grade 2 through high school, starting from identification of angles in planar shapes to radian angle measure in trigonometry. Correspondingly, mathematics curricula in the United States convey a variety of angle definitions, such as angles as geometric shapes formed by two rays that share a common endpoint, angle measures as turns, and angle measures as fractional amounts of a circle’s circumference. Despite fruitful research findings on students’ and teachers’ understandings of angles and angle measures (e.g., Clements & Burns, 2000; Devichi & Munier, 2013; Hardison, 2018; Keiser, 2004; Keiser et al., 2003; Mitchelmore & White, Biyao Liang is a doctoral candidate in mathematics education at The University of Georgia.

  • Chapter 15 Measuring an Angle
    Chapter 15 Measuring an Angle So far, the equations we have studied have an algebraic Cosmo S character, involving the variables x and y, arithmetic op- motors around erations and maybe extraction of roots. Restricting our Q the attention to such equations would limit our ability to de- circle R scribe certain natural phenomena. An important example P 20 feet involves understanding motion around a circle, and it can be motivated by analyzing a very simple scenario: Cosmo the dog, tied by a 20 foot long tether to a post, begins Figure 15.1: Cosmo the dog walking around a circle. A number of very natural ques- walking a circular path. tions arise: Natural Questions 15.0.1. How can we measure the angles ∠SPR, ∠QPR, and ∠QPS? How can we measure the arc lengths arc(RS), arc(SQ) and arc(RQ)? How can we measure the rate Cosmo is moving around the circle? If we know how to measure angles, can we compute the coordinates of R, S, and Q? Turning this around, if we know how to compute the coordinates of R, S, and Q, can we then measure the angles ∠SPR, ∠QPR, and ∠QPS ? Finally, how can we specify the direction Cosmo is traveling? We will answer all of these questions and see how the theory which evolves can be applied to a variety of problems. The definition and basic properties of the circular functions will emerge as a central theme in this Chapter. The full problem-solving power of these functions will become apparent in our discussion of sinusoidal functions in Chapter 19.

  • Chapter 4 Euclidean Geometry
    Chapter 4 Euclidean Geometry Based on previous 15 axioms, The parallel postulate for Euclidean geometry is added in this chapter. 4.1 Euclidean Parallelism, Existence of Rectangles De¯nition 4.1 Two distinct lines ` and m are said to be parallel ( and we write `km) i® they lie in the same plane and do not meet. Terminologies: 1. Transversal: a line intersecting two other lines. 2. Alternate interior angles 3. Corresponding angles 4. Interior angles on the same side of transversal 56 Yi Wang Chapter 4. Euclidean Geometry 57 Theorem 4.2 (Parallelism in absolute geometry) If two lines in the same plane are cut by a transversal to that a pair of alternate interior angles are congruent, the lines are parallel. Remark: Although this theorem involves parallel lines, it does not use the parallel postulate and is valid in absolute geometry. Proof: Assume to the contrary that the two lines meet, then use Exterior Angle Inequality to draw a contradiction. 2 The converse of above theorem is the Euclidean Parallel Postulate. Euclid's Fifth Postulate of Parallels If two lines in the same plane are cut by a transversal so that the sum of the measures of a pair of interior angles on the same side of the transversal is less than 180, the lines will meet on that side of the transversal. In e®ect, this says If m\1 + m\2 6= 180; then ` is not parallel to m Yi Wang Chapter 4. Euclidean Geometry 58 It's contrapositive is If `km; then m\1 + m\2 = 180( or m\2 = m\3): Three possible notions of parallelism Consider in a single ¯xed plane a line ` and a point P not on it.
