Trigonometric functions example) and another of the sides remains the same. If the hypotenuse is twice as long, so are the sides. It is these ratios that the trigonometric functions express. To define the trigonometric functions for the angle "A", start with any right triangle that contains the angle "A". The three sides of the triangle are named as follows: In ordinary Euclidean geometry, according to the triangle postulate, the inside angles of every triangle total 180° ( radians). Therefore, in a right-angled triangle, the two non-right angles total 90° ( radians), so each of these angles must be in the range
Triangle center if the trilinear coordinates of P can be expressed in the form f(A) : f(B) : f(C) where f(A) is a function of the angle A alone and does not depend on the other angles or on the side lengths. A triangle center P is called a "transcendental triangle center" if P has no trilinear representation using only algebraic functions of a, b and c. Let "f" be a triangle center function. If two sides of a triangle are equal (say "a" = "b") then so two components of the associated triangle center are always equal. Therefore all triangle centers
