    required by attempting to measure the distances of the moon and sun from earth by observing eclipses, it was necessary for Hipparchus to know the ratios of the sides of a right triangle. In order to solve these problems he worked out tables of the sine function, thus becoming, in effect, the founder of trigonometry. Trigonometry aided Hipparchus in his most…

    THE SINE FUNCTION (SIN) Sine function is an odd function. Trigonometric Ratios in a Triangle Definition of sinα in a Triangle is the following statement: For any acute angle α, we draw a right triangle that includes α. The sine of α, abbreviated sin α, is the ratio of the length of the opposite this angle to the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle. If we simplify we get a formula which says: It is shown in a diagram below. We can see immediately that this definition has a weak point. It…

    Although there were many scientists and mathematicians in the 16th century, Sir Isaac Newton and James Gregory stood out the most. Isaac created the three laws of motion, and James had important results on infinite series expansions of various trigonometric functions. Some other scientists from the 17th century were Galileo Galilei, Willebrord Snell, and Nicholas Cabeus. Some other mathematicians from the 17th century were Ole Roemer, John Collins, and Robert Hooke. These are only some…

    between sound waves and the sinusoidal representation. Sinusoidal is any graph mainly consisted of either the sine or cosine function. The general formula for Sinusoidal waves is y=Acosfx+C.The height of the wave of this particular function is the Amplitude. It can be written as y=Asinx and y=Acosx, where the absolute value of A is the amplitude. Also in the trigonometric function, the number of cycles it completes in a given interval 2π is the frequency. It can be written as y=Asinfx and…

    further my understanding of what causes these malfunctions and the consequent events that follow. Hence, my subject of choice complements my desire to reveal the methods by which ordered assemblies of molecular sequences drive such incredible beings to function. What I find most intriguing, is the superior organ of our physique- the brain. It governs the action of the human body and causes each person to behave in a different way to others regardless of our similar anatomy. This, is what I…
