Trigonometry, Unit Circle & Triangle Solver Guide

This trigonometry learning tool is engineered for high-school Math I / Math II students, university calculus and engineering-math students, SAT / AP Precalculus / IB Math candidates, and professionals in physics, electrical engineering, architecture, land surveying, and computer graphics who apply trigonometric concepts daily. An interactive unit circle (radius = 1) lets you drag the angle θ to visually observe the geometric definitions of sin (y-coordinate), cos (x-coordinate), and tan (slope) in real time—finally making it intuitive why sin corresponds to the y-axis. A parametric wave-graph simulator for y = A·sin(Bx − C) + D reveals how amplitude (A), period (B), phase shift (C), and vertical offset (D) transform sinusoidal curves. Supply two sides and the included angle and the built-in triangle solver instantly returns the remaining sides, all interior angles, area, and perimeter using the Law of Cosines, Law of Sines, and Heron's formula. Reference identities—Pythagorean (sin²θ + cos²θ = 1), quadrant sign rules (ASTC: All-Students-Take-Calculus), and radian/degree conversion (180° = π rad)—complete a concept-visualization-computation-verification learning loop.

Interactive Unit Circle (r=1)

Manipulate angle θ to visually inspect real-time coordinates, sine (height), cosine (base), and tangent (slope).

Wave Graph Simulator

Adjust amplitude, frequency, phase shift, and vertical offset to observe transformations of sinusoidal waves.

Triangle Solver (Law of Cosines/Sines)

Input two sides and the included angle to instantly solve for all unknown dimensions, angles, area, and perimeter.

Key Trigonometric Formulas & Pythagorean Identity
• Pythagorean Identity: sin²θ + cos²θ = 1, 1 + tan²θ = sec²θ
• Tangent Definition: tan θ = sin θ / cos θ
• Law of Cosines: c² = a² + b² - 2ab·cos(C)
• Triangle Area: S = ½·a·b·sin(C)
• Radian Conversion: rad = deg × (π / 180)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A.

On a unit circle of radius 1, the hypotenuse is 1. Therefore, cos θ = x / 1 = x (base) and sin θ = y / 1 = y (height).
