13 Trigonometric Function and their derivatives

A: In high school “Degree measure” were used to indicate the size of an angle, for ex,. But in Calculus “Radian measure” are used to indicate the size of an angle, for ex,

Radian Measure For an angle , the ratio of the length of arc to the ratio of the circle is the same, regardless of the radius of the circle. Thus Radian measure of

13.2 Derivatives of Trigonometric Functions

We will use following identities:

Derivative of by using the definition of the derivative of a function

We know by the definition of the derivative of a function The derivative of is (Identiity for ) (Rearranging the terms and factorizing) Hence
