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
Schwarz triangle function of the upper half plane. To see how to handle the case when an angle of Δ is a right angle, note that the inequality implies that if one of the angles is a right angle, say "a" = 2, then both "b" and "c" are greater than 2 and one of them, "b" say, must be greater than 3. In this case, reflecting the triangle across the side AB gives an isosceles hyperbolic triangle with angles /"c", /"c" and 2/"b". If 2/"b" ≤ /3, i.e. "b" is greater than 5, then all the angles of the doubled triangle are
