[edit] Trigonometric functions

P(\sin t \,\!, \cos t \,\!) or P(x, y)

\sin t = y \,\!

\cos t = x \,\!

\tan t = \frac{\sin t}{\cos t} = \frac{y}{x} \,\!

\cot t = \frac{\cos t}{\tan t} = \frac{x}{y} \,\!

\sec t = \frac{1}{\cos t} = \frac{1}{x} \,\!

\csc t = \frac{1}{\sin t} = \frac{1}{y} \,\!

[edit] period

A function is periodic iff.  f(x+c) = f(x) \,\!

[edit] Pythagorean Identities

\sin^2 x + \cos^2 x = 1 \,\!

1 + \cot^2 x = \csc^2 x \,\!

1 + \tan^2 x = \sec^2 x \,\!
