In a right triangle,

  • the sine (sin) of one of the acute angles is the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the hypotenuse.
  • the cosine (cos) is the length of the adjacent side divided by the length of the hypotenuse.
  • the tangent (tan) is the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the adjacent side.

The three others, cotangent, secant and cosecant, are merely reciprocals of the first three.

The inverse functions, arcsine, arccosine, and arctangent respectively, each takes as an input the ratio of two sides and outputs an angle.

What happens if the trigometric function is multiplied by a number greater than or less than 1?

When a trigonometric function is multiplied by a number greater than 1, the amplitude of the function increases, resulting in taller peaks and deeper troughs on its graph. Conversely, if it is multiplied by a number less than 1 (but greater than 0), the amplitude decreases, leading to shorter peaks and shallower troughs. This scaling affects the vertical stretch or compression of the graph without changing the period or the overall shape of the function. If the multiplier is negative, it also reflects the graph across the horizontal axis.
