    Euclid - Wikipedia
    With Archimedes and Apollonius of Perga, Euclid is generally considered among the greatest mathematicians of antiquity, and one of the most influential in the history of mathematics. Very little is known of Euclid's life, and most information comes from the scholars Proclus and Pappus of Alexandria many centuries later.

    Important Geometry Terms
    • Sine (sin): The ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle.
    • Cosine (cos): The ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the length of the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle.
    • Tangent (tan): The ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the adjacent side in a right-angled triangle ($\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}$).
    • Cosecant (csc): The reciprocal of the sine function ($\csc \theta = \frac{1}{\sin \theta}$), representing the ratio of the hypotenuse to the opposite side.
    • Secant (sec): The reciprocal of the cosine function ($\sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos \theta}$), representing the ratio of the hypotenuse to the adjacent side.
    • Cotangent (cot): The reciprocal of the tangent function ($\cot \theta = \frac{1}{\tan \theta}$), representing the ratio of the adjacent side to the opposite side.
    • Hypotenuse: The longest side of a right-angled triangle, located opposite the right angle ($90^\circ$).
    • Radian: A unit of angle measurement based on arc length, where $2\pi \text{ radians} = 360^\circ$ ($1 \text{ radian} \approx 57.3^\circ$).
    • Unit Circle: A circle with a radius of $1$ centered at the origin $(0,0)$ in the Cartesian coordinate plane, used to extend trigonometric functions to any angle.
    • Pythagorean Identity: The fundamental trigonometric identity derived from the Pythagorean theorem, expressed as $\sin^2\theta + \cos^2\theta = 1$.

     

    Industries That Use Geometry

    • Hipparchus Compiles First Chord Table (c. 150 BC): Earns the title "Father of Geometry" by calculating circle chord values to solve astronomical triangles and track planetary motion.
    • Ptolemy Writes the Almagest (c. 150 AD): Expands chord tables and spherical geometry principles, creating a comprehensive geometric framework that dominated astronomy for over a millennium.
    • Aryabhata Introduces the Sine Function (c. 499 AD): Indian mathematician defines jya (half-chord), shifting mathematical focus from full circle chords to the modern concept of sine.
    • Al-Battani and Islamic Golden Age Innovations (c. 900 AD): Islamic scholars formalize tangent, cotangent, secant, and cosecant functions, establishing geometry as an independent mathematical discipline.
