The sides of right-angled triangles are labelled opposite, hypotenuse and adjacent. Trigonometry explores the relationship between sides and angles in right-angled triangles. The hypotenuse is the ...

The three sides of a right-angled triangle have special names. The hypotenuse (\(h\)) is the longest side. It is opposite the right angle. The opposite side (\(o\)) is opposite the angle in ...

Now, a new article not only proves that theorem—which relies on the Law of Sines—but puts forth four more trigonometric proofs, as well as five additional proofs outside of trigonometry.

Trigonometry and circle geometry are used to calculate the toolpaths used in lathe cutting operations. This class introduces the foundational toolpaths and trigonometric equations, including tool nose ...

With Fairmont student Sam Grogin winning the national Trig Star championship last year, Fairmont sought to uphold its winning ...

Most trigonometry students look at triangles on a flat surface. However, people from ancient astronomers to modern navigators calculated the arc lengths and angles of triangles on a sphere. They used ...

Death to triangles!” Luckily, triangles survived nonetheless—and thrived. In “Love Triangle: How Trigonometry Shapes the ...
