Sine, Cosine, Tangent. Sine, cosine, and tangent are also known as the three main trigonometric functions. They are based on the sides and angles of a right triangle, and they define the relationships of the sides and angles of a triangle with respect to one another. Sine, cosine, and tangent (abbreviated sin, cos, and tan) can calculate angles of the triangle when the sides are known and sides when the angles are known.
Flax Seeds and Flax Seed Meal. Flax seeds (also called linseeds in some places) are very low in carbohydrate and high in nutrients, and are useful in a lot of low-carb recipes. They are the seeds of the flax plant, from which linen cloth is made.
Flaxseed may also help lower total blood cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or bad) cholesterol levels, which may help reduce the risk of heart disease. You can buy flaxseed in bulk â whole or ground â at many grocery stores and health food stores. Refrigerating whole seeds may extend their freshness. Whole seeds can be ground in a coffee grinder and then stored in an airtight container for several months.
