The Six Trigonometric Functions

Inverse Fucntions

Cot^-1 This inverse function gives the given angle whose cotangent is equal to a given value. Domain All real numbers Range 0 < θ < π

Csc^-1 This inverse function gives the given angle whose cosecant is equal to a given value. Domain x ≤ -1 or x ≥ 1 Range -π/2 ≤ θ ≤ π/2 excluding 0

Sec^-1 This inverse function gives the given angle whose sine is equal to a given value. Domain x ≤ -1 or x ≥ 1 Range 0 ≤ θ ≤ π or π < θ ≤ 2π

Tan^-1 This inverse function gives the given angle whose tangent is equal to a given value. Domain All real numbers Range -π/2 < θ < π/2

Cos^-1 This inverse function gives the given angle whose cosine is equal to a given value. Domain -1 ≤ x ≤ 1 Range 0 ≤ θ ≤ π

Sin^-1 This inverse function gives the given angle whose sine is equal to a given value. Domain -1 ≤ x ≤ 1 Range -π/2 ≤ θ ≤ π/2

Inverses of the six trigonometric are formally known as inverse or arc trigonometric functions. These functions are used to find angles based on the ratio of sides of a right triangle. Also they are used to solve equations.

SOHCAHTOA-is the term used to remember the relationship between the trigonometric functions (Tangent,Sine,Cosine) as well as sides of a right triangle.

SOH sinθ= OPPOSITE ______________ HYPOTENUSE

TOA Tanθ= OPPOSITE ________________ ADJACENT

CAH Cosθ= ADJACENT _____________ HYPOTENUSE

Even Odd Properties- Even properties state that a function is even if f(-θ)=f(θ) and f is odd if f(-θ)= -f(θ)

Csc(-θ) ODD

Sec(-θ) EVEN

Cot(-θ) ODD

Tan(-θ) ODD

Cos(-θ) EVEN

Sin(-θ) ODD

Identities- An identity is an equation which for no matter what value you put in for your input there going to be equal.

Pythagorean Identity

(cosθ)^2+(sinθ)^2=1 Substitute trigonometric function values for x and y

tan^2θ+1=sec^2θ

(sin θ)^2+ (cosθ)^2=1 Commutative Property of Addition

1+cot^2θ=csc^2θ

sin^2(θ)+cos^2(θ)=1 Customary notation

Quotient Identity

Reciprocal Identitity

What are Trigonometric Functions? Trigonometric Functions also known as circular functions are mathematical functions of an angle. They are used to connect the ratios of the triangle's sides to the angles of a right triangle.
