The document defines the six trigonometric functions - sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant, and cotangent - using the ratios of sides of a right triangle. It provides examples of calculating each function using a right triangle where angle A is the angle of reference and a, b, and c are the opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse sides respectively.
