    SIN-1, Linsidomine (3-morpholinosydnonimine), a drug acting as a vasodilator; sin x−1 = sin(x)−1 = −(1sin(x)) = −cvs(x) or negative coversine of x, the additive inverse (or negation) of an old trigonometric function; sin1 y = sin1 (y), sometimes interpreted as arcsin(y) or arcsine of y, the compositional inverse of the ...

    Ptolemy's theorem states that the sum of the products of the lengths of opposite sides is equal to the product of the lengths of the diagonals. When those side-lengths are expressed in terms of the sin and cos values shown in the figure above, this yields the angle sum trigonometric identity for sine: sin(α + β) = sin α cos β + cos α sin β.

    The sine and the cosine functions, for example, are used to describe simple harmonic motion, which models many natural phenomena, such as the movement of a mass attached to a spring and, for small angles, the pendular motion of a mass hanging by a string. The sine and cosine functions are one-dimensional projections of uniform circular motion.

    In contrast, by the Lindemann–Weierstrass theorem, the sine or cosine of any non-zero algebraic number is always transcendental. [4] The real part of any root of unity is a trigonometric number. By Niven's theorem, the only rational trigonometric numbers are 0, 1, −1, 1/2, and −1/2. [5]

    The hexagonal chart can be constructed with a little thought: [10] Draw three triangles pointing down, touching at a single point. This resembles a fallout shelter trefoil. Write a 1 in the middle where the three triangles touch; Write the functions without "co" on the three left outer vertices (from top to bottom: sine, tangent, secant)

    [1] [10] Another precarious convention used by a small number of authors is to use an uppercase first letter, along with a “ −1 ” superscript: Sin1 (x), Cos −1 (x), Tan −1 (x), etc. [11] Although it is intended to avoid confusion with the reciprocal, which should be represented by sin1 (x), cos −1 (x), etc., or, better, by ...

    An example is the condensed molecular/chemical formula for ethanol, which is CH 3 −CH 2 −OH or CH 3 CH 2 OH. However, even a condensed chemical formula is necessarily limited in its ability to show complex bonding relationships between atoms, especially atoms that have bonds to four or more different substituents.
