That is, what is the domain and what is the range of the secant function, and what happens to the values of the secant function at the points that are near points not in the domain of the secant function?

We call this number the magnitude of the quantity. One such example is temperature since we describe this with only a number such as 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Other such quantities are length, area, and mass. These types of quantities are often called scalar quantities. However, there are other quantities that require both a magnitude and a direction. One such example is force, and another is velocity.

In fact, the word trigonometry comes from the Greek words for triangle measurement. We will see that we can use the trigonometric functions to help determine lengths of sides of triangles or the measure on angles in triangles. As we will see in the last two sections of this chapter, triangle trigonometry is also useful in the study of vectors.

So two vectors that have the same magnitude and direction are equal. That means that we can position our vector in the plane and identify it in different ways. Vectors also have certain geometric properties such as length and a direction angle. With the use of the component form of a vector, we can write algebraic formulas for these properties.

One thing we can observe from the graphs of the sine and cosine functions is that the graph seems to have a “wave” form and that this “wave” repeats as we move along the horizontal axis.

To better understand the product of complex numbers, we first investigate the trigonometric (or polar) form of a complex number. This trigonometric form connects algebra to trigonometry and will be useful for quickly and easily finding powers and roots of complex numbers.

Our next task is to develop methods to relate sides and angles of oblique triangles. In this section, we will develop two such methods, the Law of Sines and the Law of Cosines. In the next section, we will learn how to use these methods in applications.
