Looking closely at the multiples of radian pi, 2pi and 3pi, you will see that the amplitudes of the various sinc functions are zero. This is a special characteristics of "Sinc" function. If you sample these functions at interval of pi, you will get nothing or zero amplitude. Interesting trigonometry, right? .

Sine and tangent are the equivalent. You cannot take the "cos" apart from the angle A. They must exist together as a pair "cosA". For double angle 2A, any trigonometrical operation on it will be likewise treated. Cos2A will be an operation of cosine on this double angle 2A. "cos" cannot be treated as a variable, standing alone. Thus cos2A is not to be separated into "cos" "2A" or (cos)(2)(A). With this principles, cos2A is therefore, not equal to 2cosA, since the 2A is being operated with the function "cosine". You may wish to pump in some numbers for the angle and try for yourself this verification. Example: cos 2(20) and 2 cos(20). Are they really equal? As long as you understand what is operation (or function) and operand (or the variable operated upon), you will not have any serious problem with math. :-)

What do you think this picture is about? While creating this maths picture, a kid so happened to have a glimpse of it, and commented that it looked like the front view of an aeroplane.

For me, it seems to be the captured voice of Optimus Prime, the Transformer Autobot leader. With maths, if you understand the underlying principles of various elementary topics, you can freely come up with any mathematical figures that you wish. Here, I have simply used the special sinc function modulated (multiplied) by a high frequency trigonometric sine function to get this mixed result. Using graph is one way to form picture, like the one created here. It is fun seeing your imagination materialise through using maths and graphs as the tools. Try it for yourself. You will enjoy maths and its fun picture creation. :D

Diagram 1 Besides rotational direction, what does the "sign" of the angle has on the numerical value of their trigonometric operation? Is cos 600 = cos (- 600) ? How about its sine counterpart? Is sin 600 = sin (- 600) ? The diagrams below will provide the answers to the above two questions.

Diagram 2: Cosine function In diagram 2, we can see that the amplitude of the cosine for +600 and -600 remains the SAME. That is to say, whether the angles are positive or negative, cosine function of these angles are the same. Let's look at the Sine operation of negative angles (Diagram 3).

Diagram 3: Sine function Here in diagram 3, we see a difference. The numerical value of sine operation on positive and negative angle differs by the sign. They are DIFFERENT! sin 60 = - sin (-60 ) In conclusion, cos A = cos (-A) and sin A = - sin (-A). As such tan A = - tan (-A) since tan A = sin A / cos A. "-" and "+" can be confusing. However, do note that it is the learner's duty to master this concept. Pressurised? Fear not! Mindset change will do the trick. "I love maths as it is interesting!" .
