Key Topics to Revise

1

Introduction to Trigonometry and Basic Concepts

  • Trigonometry helps measure distances and heights that cannot be measured directly
  • It is based on right-angled triangles and uses Pythagoras theorem
  • Similar triangles have proportional corresponding sides
2

Trigonometric Ratios

  • Three basic trigonometric ratios: sine (sin), cosine (cos), and tangent (tan)
  • Ratios remain constant for similar triangles with same angles
  • Each ratio compares two sides of a right-angled triangle
3

Relations Among Trigonometric Ratios

  • Complementary angle relationships: sin θ = cos(90° - θ)
  • Basic identity: sin θ / cos θ = tan θ
  • Product relationship: tan θ × tan(90° - θ) = 1
4

Trigonometric Ratios of Specific Angles

  • Standard angles: 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°
  • 30°-60°-90° triangle has sides in ratio 1 : √3 : 2
  • 45°-45°-90° triangle has sides in ratio 1 : 1 : √2
