  2. Fresnel integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_integral

    The sector contour used to calculate the limits of the Fresnel integrals. This can be derived with any one of several methods. One of them [5] uses a contour integral of the function around the boundary of the sector-shaped region in the complex plane formed by the positive x-axis, the bisector of the first quadrant y = x with x ≥ 0, and a circular arc of radius R centered at the origin.

  3. List of trigonometric identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_trigonometric...

    A formula for computing the trigonometric identities for the one-third angle exists, but it requires finding the zeroes of the cubic equation 4x 3 − 3x + d = 0, where is the value of the cosine function at the one-third angle and d is the known value of the cosine function at the full angle.

  4. Pythagorean trigonometric identity - Wikipedia

    By the periodicity identities we can say if the formula is true for −π < θ ≤ π then it is true for all real θ. Next we prove the identity in the range ⁠ π / 2 ⁠ < θ ≤ π. To do this we let t = θ − ⁠ π / 2 ⁠, t will now be in the range 0 < t ≤ π/2. We can then make use of squared versions of some basic shift identities ...

  5. Law of cotangents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_cotangents

    Using the usual notations for a triangle (see the figure at the upper right), where a, b, c are the lengths of the three sides, A, B, C are the vertices opposite those three respective sides, α, β, γ are the corresponding angles at those vertices, s is the semiperimeter, that is, s = ⁠ a + b + c / 2 ⁠, and r is the radius of the inscribed circle, the law of cotangents states that

  6. Romberg's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romberg's_method

    Romberg's method is a Newton–Cotes formula – it evaluates the integrand at equally spaced points. The integrand must have continuous derivatives, though fairly good results may be obtained if only a few derivatives exist.

  7. CORDIC - Wikipedia

    CORDIC (coordinate rotation digital computer), Volder's algorithm, Digit-by-digit method, Circular CORDIC (Jack E. Volder), [1] [2] Linear CORDIC, Hyperbolic CORDIC (John Stephen Walther), [3] [4] and Generalized Hyperbolic CORDIC (GH CORDIC) (Yuanyong Luo et al.), [5] [6] is a simple and efficient algorithm to calculate trigonometric functions, hyperbolic functions, square roots ...

    These equations are also known as the cofunction identities. [2] [3]This also holds true for the versine (versed sine, ver) and coversine (coversed sine, cvs), the vercosine (versed cosine, vcs) and covercosine (coversed cosine, cvc), the haversine (half-versed sine, hav) and hacoversine (half-coversed sine, hcv), the havercosine (half-versed cosine, hvc) and hacovercosine (half-coversed ...

    So for example, by using the equality ⁡ = ⁡, the equation ⁡ = can be transformed into ⁡ =, which allows for the solution to the equation ⁡ = (where :=) to be used; that solution being: = ⁡ +, which becomes: = ⁡ + where using the fact that () = and substituting := proves that another solution to ⁡ = is: = + ⁡ + +.
