Plane and Spherical Trigonometry


Plane Trigonometry
  • Focuses on the relationships between the angles and sides of triangles that have three vertices located on the surface of a plane. Thus, here we learn about concepts like right angles, straight angles, acute angles, complimentary angles and supplementary angles.
Spherical Trigonometry
  • The branch of spherical geometry that deals with the relationships between trigonometric functions of the sides and angles of the spherical polygons (especially spherical triangles) defined by a number of intersecting great circles on the sphere
