These are real functions which are widely used in all sciences that are related togeometry such as navigation, solid mechanics, celestial mechanics, geodesy, and many others. Moreover, the differentiation of trigonometric functions is the mathematical process of finding the derivative of a trigonometric function, or its rate of change with respect toa variable. For example, the derivative of the sine function is written sina) = cos(a), meaning that the rate of change of sin(x) at a particular angle x = ais given by the cosine of that angle. All derivatives of circular trigonometric functions can be found from those of ‘sin(x) and cos(x) by means of the quotient rule applied to functions such as tanfx) = sin(x)/cos(x). Knowing these derivatives, the derivatives of the inverse trigonometric functions are found using implicit differentiation. @) What is It Rules of Derivatives of Trigonometric Functions Rule 1.
