Trignometric functions:
Consider a unit circle with center at the origin O and Let P be any point on the circle with P(a,b). And let call the angle x We use the coordinates of P to define the cosine of the angle and the sine of the angle. Specifically, the x-coordinate of B is the cosine of the angle, and the y-coordinate of B is the sine of the angle. Also it is clear
a2+b2=1
cos2x +sin2x =1
Properties of these functions
- Sine and cosine are periodic functions of period, that is, of period. That's because sines and cosines are defined in terms of angles, and you can add multiples of, or, and it doesn't change the angle. Thus, for any angle xsin(x+2π)= sin (x) and cos(x+2π)= cos(x)or we can say thatsin (2nπ + x) = sin x,, cos (2nπ + x) = cos x,Where Z is the set of all integers
- sin x = 0 implies x = nπ, where n is any integercos x = 0 implies x = (2n + 1)(π/2)
- The other trignometric function are defined ascosec(x)= 1/sin (x) where x ≠nπ, where n is any integersec(x)=1/cos (x) where x ≠(2n + 1)(π/2) where n is any integertan(x)=sin(x)/cos(x) where x ≠(2n + 1)(π/2) where n is any integercot(x)=cos(x)/sin(x) where x ≠nπ, where n is any integer
- For all real xsin2(x)+cos2(x)=11+ tan2(x)=sec2(x)1+ cot2(x)=cosec2(x)
- What is is Odd function and Even FunctionWe have come across these adjectives 'odd' and 'even' when applied to functions, but it's important to know them. A function f is said to be an odd functionif for any number x, f(-x) = -f(x).A function f is said to be an even function if for any number x, f(-x) = f(x).Many functions are neither odd nor even functions, but some of the most important functions are one or the other.Example:Any polynomial with only odd degree terms is an odd function, for example, f(x) = 2x7 + 9x5 - x. (Note that all the powers of x are odd numbers.)Similarly, any polynomial with only even degree terms is an even function. For example, f(x) = 6x8 - 6x2 - 5.Based on above defination we can call Sine is an odd function, and cosine is evensin (-x) = -sin x, andcos (-x) = cos x.These facts follow from the symmetry of the unit circle across the x-axis. The angle -x is the same angle as x except it's on the other side of the x-axis. Flipping a point (x,y) to the other side of the x-axis makes it into (x,-y), so the y-coordinate is negated, that is, the sine is negated, but the x-coordinate remains the same, that is, the cosine is unchanged.
- Now since in unit circle-1 ≤ a ≤ 1-1 ≤ b ≤ 1It follows that for all x-1 ≤ sin(x) ≤ 1-1 ≤ cos(x) ≤ 1 Also We know from previous classes,a,b are both positive in Ist quadrant i.e 0< x < π/2 It implies that sin is positive and cos is postivea is negative and b is positive in IInd quadrant i.e π/2 < x< πIt implies that sin is negative and cos is postivea and b both are negative in III quadrant ie. π < x < 3π/2 It implies that sin is negative and cos is negativea is positive and b is negative in IV quadrant i,.e 3π/2 < x < 2π It implies that sin is positive and cos is negativeSimilarly sign can be obtained for other functions
