How are ratios for sin and cosine alike?
sin(x) = cos(pi/2 - x). Thus sine is simply a horizontal translation of the cosine function. NB: angles are measured in radians.
Write the expression in terms of sine and cosine and simplify so that no quotients appear in the final expression. cscx(sinx plus cosx)?
csc(x)*{sin(x) + cos(x)} = csc(x)*sin(x) + csc(x)*cos(x) =1/sin*(x)*sin(x) + 1/sin(x)*cos(x) = 1 + cot(x)
What are inverse sine inverse cosine and inverse tangent used for?
to find the measure of an angle. EX: if sin A = 0.1234, then inv sin (0.1234) will give you the measure of angle A
What are the sum and difference identities for the sine cosine and tangent functions?
Sine sum identity: sin (x + y) = (sin x)(cos y) + (cos x)(sin y)Sine difference identity: sin (x - y) = (sin x)(cos y) - (cos x)(sin y)Cosine sum identity: cos (x + y) = (cos x)(cos y) - (sin x)(sin y)Cosine difference identity: cos (x - y) = (cos x)(cos y) + (sin x)(sin y)Tangent sum identity: tan (x + y) = [(tan x) + (tan y)]/[1 - (tan x)(tan y)]Tangent difference identity: tan (x - y) = [(tan x) - (tan y)]/[1 + (tan x)(tan y)]
What dies COS stand for on calculator?
Cos is short for 'Cosine' / It is the complementary curve to 'Sine'.
