EVALUATING LIMITS OF TRIGONOMETRIC

FUNCTIONS
DEFINITION

IDENTITY – In mathematics, is an equation that is true no


matter what values are chosen.
Example: a/2 = a × 0.5 is true, no matter what value is
chosen for "a"
DEFINITION

TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS -  is one of the many


functions that relate one non-right angle of a right triangle to
the ratio of the lengths of any two sides of the triangle (or vice
versa).
TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS OF RIGHT TRIANGLE
DEFINITION

TRIGONOMETRIC IDENTITIES - In mathematics, are


equalities that involve trigonometric functions and are true for
every single value of the occurring variables where both sides of
the equality are defined. Geometrically, these are identities
involving certain functions of one or more angles.
