Class 10 Maths Introduction To Trigonometry

Trigonometry

Trigonometry is the study of relationships between the sides and angles of a right-angled triangle.

Trigonometric Ratios

Trigonometric ratios of an acute angle in a right triangle express the relationship between the angle and the length of its sides.
Let ∆ABC be a triangle right angled at B. Then the trigonometric ratios of the angle A in right ∆ABC are defined as follows:

NCERT Solutions For Class 10 Maths Chapter 8 Introduction to Trigonometry Ex 8.1 Q11.1

Note:
The values of the trigonometric ratios of an angle do not vary with the lengths of the sides of the triangle, if the angle remains same.
NCERT Solutions For Class 10 Maths Chapter 8 Introduction to Trigonometry Ex 8.1 Q11.2

Trigonometric Ratios for Complementary Angles

sin (90° – A) = cos A
cos (90° – A) = sin A
tan (90° – A) = cot A
cot (90° – A) = tan A
sec (90° – A) = cosec A
cosec (90° – A) = sec A
Note:
Here (90° – A) is the complementary angle of A.

Trigonometric Identities

An equation involving trigonometric ratios of an angle is called a trigonometric identity, if it is true for all values of the angle(s) involved.
(i) sin2θ + cos2θ = 1 [for 0° ≤ θ ≤ 90°]
(ii) sec2θ – tan2θ = 1 [for 0° ≤ θ ≤ 90°]
(iii) cosec2θ – cot2θ = 1 [for 0° < θ ≤ 90°]
