Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of analytic trigonometry. Much of the language and terminology of algebra carries over to trigonometry. Algebraic expressions involve variables, constants, and algebraic operations. Trigonometric expressions involve these same elements but also permit trigonometric functions of variables and constants. They also allow algebraic operations upon these trigonometric functions. The distinction between an identity and an equation also carries over to trigonometry. Thus, a trigonometric identity is true for all real values in the domain of the variable, but a trigonometric equation is true only for certain values called solutions. The set of all solutions of a trigonometric equation is called the solution set.
