On the Applications of Axial Representation of Trigonometric Functions
Siadat, M. Vali
AMATYC Review, v28 n1 p17-21 Fall 2006
In terms of modern pedagogy, having visual interpretation of trigonometric functions is useful and quite helpful. This paper presents, pictorially, an easy approach to prove all single angle trigonometric identities on the axes. It also discusses the application of axial representation in calculus--finding the derivative of trigonometric functions.
