...magnitude of the angle ; it has a definite constant value for any given value of the angle, and it increases from 0 to 1 as the angle increases from 0° to 90°. This ratio of the perpendicular be to the radius Oa (or O6) is called the sine of the angle AOB. In... | |

...triangle opposite the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse. The sine varies in numerical value from 0 to 1 as the angle increases from 0° to 90°. Now, this ratio was known at first, not by theoretical proof, but by observing it as a characteristic... | |
