Trigonometrical Functions

• Angle : Angle is a measure of rotation of a given ray about its initial point. The original ray is called the initial side and the final ray after rotation is called terminal side of the angle. The point of rotation is called the vertex.
• Relation between degree and radianSince a circle subtends at the centre an angle whose radian is 2π and its degree measure is 360º , it follows that   2π radian = 360º   or  π radian = 180º.
• Trigonometric Functions : The extension of trigonometric ratios to any angle in terms of radian measure and study them as trigonometric functions.
