In mathematics, the trigonometric functions (also called circular functions, angle functions or goniometric functions) are functions of an angle. They relate the angles of a triangle to the lengths of its sides. Trigonometric functions are important in the study of triangles and modeling periodic phenomena, among many other applications. * The most familiar trigonometric functions are the sine, cosine, and tangent. In the context of the standard unit circle (a circle with radius 1 unit), where a triangle is formed by a ray starting at the origin and making some angle with the x-axis, the sine of the angle gives the y-component (the opposite to the angle or the rise) of the triangle, the cosine gives the x-component (the adjacent of the angle or the run), and the tangent function gives the slope (y-component divided by the x-component). For angles less than a right angle, trigonometric functions are commonly defined as ratios of two sides of a right triangle containing the angle, and t |
