Formula Nature & Mechanics
Bounded Oscillatory Function: Sine and cosine oscillate smoothly between -1 and +1 with period 360° (2π rad).
Common Mistakes & Traps
- Using Degree mode when Radians are expected (or vice versa).
- Tangent asymptotes at 90° and 270° (division by cos θ = 0 causes undefined infinity).
- Forgetting inverse trigonometric domain limits (e.g., arcsin input must be between -1 and 1).

Worked Example: Sin Cos Tan
Given:
- theta = 30
- θ = 30° = 0.5236 rad
- sin 30° = 0.5
- cos 30° = 0.866
- tan 30° = 0.5774
Answer: 0.5
