    Octagon - Wikipedia
    In geometry, an octagon (from Ancient Greek ὀκτάγωνον (oktágōnon) 'eight angles') is an eight-sided polygon or 8-gon. A regular octagon has Schläfli symbol {8} [1] and can also be constructed as a quasiregular truncated square, t {4}, which alternates two types of edges. A truncated octagon, t {8} is a hexadecagon, {16}. A 3D analog of the octagon can be the rhombicuboctahedron ...

    Important Geometry Terms
    • Sine (sin): The ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle.
    • Cosine (cos): The ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the length of the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle.
    • Tangent (tan): The ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the adjacent side in a right-angled triangle ($\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}$).
    • Cosecant (csc): The reciprocal of the sine function ($\csc \theta = \frac{1}{\sin \theta}$), representing the ratio of the hypotenuse to the opposite side.
    • Secant (sec): The reciprocal of the cosine function ($\sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos \theta}$), representing the ratio of the hypotenuse to the adjacent side.
    • Cotangent (cot): The reciprocal of the tangent function ($\cot \theta = \frac{1}{\tan \theta}$), representing the ratio of the adjacent side to the opposite side.
    • Hypotenuse: The longest side of a right-angled triangle, located opposite the right angle ($90^\circ$).
    • Radian: A unit of angle measurement based on arc length, where $2\pi \text{ radians} = 360^\circ$ ($1 \text{ radian} \approx 57.3^\circ$).
    • Unit Circle: A circle with a radius of $1$ centered at the origin $(0,0)$ in the Cartesian coordinate plane, used to extend trigonometric functions to any angle.
    • Pythagorean Identity: The fundamental trigonometric identity derived from the Pythagorean theorem, expressed as $\sin^2\theta + \cos^2\theta = 1$.

    • Hipparchus Compiles First Chord Table (c. 150 BC): Earns the title "Father of Geometry" by calculating circle chord values to solve astronomical triangles and track planetary motion.
    • Ptolemy Writes the Almagest (c. 150 AD): Expands chord tables and spherical geometry principles, creating a comprehensive geometric framework that dominated astronomy for over a millennium.
    • Aryabhata Introduces the Sine Function (c. 499 AD): Indian mathematician defines jya (half-chord), shifting mathematical focus from full circle chords to the modern concept of sine.
    • Al-Battani and Islamic Golden Age Innovations (c. 900 AD): Islamic scholars formalize tangent, cotangent, secant, and cosecant functions, establishing geometry as an independent mathematical discipline.
    • Regiomontanus Publishes De Triangulis Omnimodis (1464): Produces the first European textbook devoted entirely to plane and spherical geometry, standardizing trigonometric methods for navigation.
    • Rheticus Defines Ratios on Right Triangles (1596): Defines trigonometric functions directly as ratios of triangle sides rather than circle chords, creating the modern textbook approach used today.
    • John Napier Invents Logarithms (1614): Revolutionizes trigonometric computation by simplifying complex multi-digit sine and cosine multiplications into straightforward addition and subtraction.
    • Leonhard Euler Unifies Geometry and Calculus (1748): Introduces standard function notations ($\sin, \cos, \tan$) and formulates Euler's formula ($e^{ix} = \cos x + i \sin x$), connecting geometry with complex analysis.
