Trigonometry Basics for Competitive Exams Part 2nd

 Following the sequence of last post on basics of Trigonometry I am continuing the basics of Trigonometry in this post too. Let’s prepare this get full hold on the questions of trigonometry.

Table for the value of Trigonometric ratios at various angles  :-

Angle →
θ =  0
θ = 300
θ = 450
θ = 600
θ = 900

Sinθ
0
½
1/√2
√3/2

Cosθ

Tanθ

√3

Cosecθ

Secθ

Quadrant rule

Summary of Trigonometric ratios  with respect to Quadrant rule

figure to represent the Quadrant Rule

The Quadrant rule is also known as A-S-T-C Rule

     Where A stands for all ratios means (Sinθ, Cosθ, Tanθ, Cosecθ, Secθ,  and Cotθ)

                  S stands for ratios (Sinθ and its inversely related brother Cosecθ only)

                  T stands for ratios (Tanθ and its inversely related brother Cotθ only)

                  C stands for ratios (Cosθ and its inversely related brother Secθ only)

Means :-
All ratios are positive in 1st Quadrant

Only Sinθ and Cosecθ values are positive in 2nd Quadrant while all others are negative in this Quadrant as this Quadrant belongs to these two ratios only.

Only Tanθ and Cotθ values are positive in 3rd  Quadrant while all others are negative in this Quadrant as this Quadrant belongs to these two ratios only.

Only Cosθ and Secθ values are positive in 2nd Quadrant while all others are negative in this Quadrant as this Quadrant belongs to these two ratios only.

Table for Quadrant Rule :-

(90 + θ)
(180 - θ)
(180 + θ)
(360 - θ)
