Expert Solution
Step 1

In the given equation, the concept of a trigonometric function is applied.

Trigonometric Functions

The fundamental six trigonometric functions have a site input value that's an angle of a trigon and a numeric answer that's the range. In trigonometry, there are six basic trigonometric functions. Trigonometric ratios are the functions in question. Sine, cosine, secant, co-secant, tangent, and co-tangent are the six basic trigonometric functions. The ratio of sides of a triangle is the basis for trigonometric functions and identities. The perpendicular side, hypotenuse, and base of a trilateral are employed in trigonometric formulas to work out the sine, cosine, tangent, secant, cosecant, and cotangent values.
