Kevin Frangakis’ students were tasked with measuring the Bridgeton High School’s (BHS) flag pole using applied trigonometry, literally. Opposite them were a trio from Fralinger Engineering who had ...

THE Practical Geometry by Messrs. Le Neve Foster and Dobbs consists of a collection of more than seven hundred examples, grouped in sets, each set illustrating some fundamental geometrical principle, ...

The mathematical study of triangles has just got a whole lot simpler, according to a researcher who says his new theory of trigonometry is easier to use and more accurate. Associate Professor Norman ...

Pointwise rates of convergence for the collocation method applied to periodic singular integral equations and pseudodifferential equations are considered, using trigonometric polynomials of degree n ...

The trigonometric interpolants to a periodic function f in equispaced points converge if f is Dini-continuous, and the associated quadrature formula, the trapezoidal rule, converges if f is continuous ...

Praxis the robot and Alan the “human man” attempt to land a plane using their knowledge of trigonometry. Luckily, the plane is full of ancient mathematicians who fill in some history of the ...
