What does Sin, Cos, Tan actually mean? Trigonometry explained for Beginners!

- Sine, Cosine, and Tangent can often be confusing concepts. I for one was very confused when I was first introduced to the words sin cos and tan back in school. It took me several years of studying mathematics to gain a concrete understanding of these words. This video focusses on giving the viewer a visual understanding of trigonometry.
I shot most of the video outdoors to give students a virtual breath of fresh air to help them through their studying.
breaks into high security nuclear facility on a bicycle, lays down in field and talks about math for a bit then develops super human intelligence after exposure to experimental radiation. All in the name of educating the masses. What a MathPunk.
:0 HE ISNT GONE!!!! HE HEARTED A COMMENT
You can only really get math through total understanding of a principle, and then using that principle you can understand another and another and so on. Schools prioritize memory tricks over complete understanding and so often leads to a collapse of understanding and interest. This video is not only amazing but should be used as a standard for how and why slow built understanding is far better than quick memory tricks. Well done!
couldn't have said it better myself
True.you explained basically all he is.good job👍
yes indeeed
I need to more on this to understand , thanks.
Yes your right
I was a Structural Engineer, but always struggled with sin, cosine and tan. The university didn't explain it they way you did. Now at 71 years old I get it thanks to you. A bit late, but just so cool. Thank you.
It's never late to learn
@@user-rv4rp7ls8k nah dawg he kinda late
can you tell me how often or if you even used this info much in your career or perhaps to pass FE or PE
Was honestly my biggest question in school. What IS it? When teachers teach application without the theoretical side of things they think they're helping but for people who need to understand the scope first this helps a lot!
Yea, I'll never understand why history is full of teachers who think regurgitating information to students is some unquestionable advanced god like form of teaching.
6:54 They came for him. He knows too much
That's why he hasn't uploaded since
LOOOOL
It's just math 😐
LOLL TWAS THA FBI 😐
My god! You did the impossible. I've learnt the intuition behind these trig functions. You sir are a mathematical hero!
Exactly. This is one of the best math videos I have ever seen. his descriptions are so intuitive and clear, especially with how he uses geometry to present the ideas.
6:50 hahaha this guys is tryna teach us math while an entire war is going on in the background
no wonder he has learnt concepts so well , he is immune to distractions :)
LOOL AT LEAST AT 7:31 THE WAR IS NEARLY OVER Xd
Your a very different teacher... Never seen people like this in ages...
scam above me ^^^
I'm extremely grateful for your explanation.. As a novice, it was bothering me that I was numbly "getting it right" without a clue as to what meaning any of trig had.
Jay, this was amazing. Please post more videos. You’re a natural teacher.
i bs-ed my way through math and after 2 years of learning sin cos tan i finally understand what it actually means now. Thank you so much.
now I can sleep in peace. Thanks for answering one of my existential doubts
This guy just chilling and decided to make a math video what a champ
learning Trigonometry in a warzone with jay is how I spend my Tuesdays.
Shame he only had one video on his channel. A true talent in creating content and teaching this type of stuff. He can really go far with it.
truly conceptual.. love this way of teaching, which flows so logically. No need to memorize, just a step by step visual concept building.. Bra jobbat
Agree.. memorising can be painful. but understanding is blissful...
Please my man complete uploading videos dont give up you are perfect just the youtube logarithm was unfair
Thank u. I’m beyond words
Fantastic tutorial!
You teach maths wholly, where lecturers teach within the narrow bandwidth of the grade, assuming the base of lower grades to already exist and ignoring what is above, you teach maths as a contextual whole for the purpose of genuine understanding, rather than teaching an out of context piece surrounded by an ambiguous fog to be memorized for later disposal.
You are a good teacher man, thank you.
This is the kind of teaching that gives value instead of one-use single-purpose throw away tools.
I'm just hoping you have a video on parabolas now!
Edit: No parabola video 😭😄
Brilliant mate. U have a natural ability to teach. We need some more videos please.
Everyone has different learning styles, and the way this video explained the meaning of these terms was exactly what I needed to fully understand the utility of these functions. Thank you for your patience and style of explaining!
Many thanks for this great and clear explanation. The fact that you started by explaining the language aspect of sine and used an analogy helped me a lot.
You don't know how much I'm super excited.... You just explained my four years mystery in 30 minutes and if have skipped ur video by seeing the time extent, I wouldn't have solved this mystery... Thank you and put more videos
What was it
Thank you so much for this,skeptical at first but well worth it
I searched you everywhere, but can't find!!!!!!
This video is mind blowing, i need more of this
I remembered soh cah toa from high school (ages ago) but I had completely forgotten what the functions represented. This video was a brilliant refresher. Thank you for your efforts!
You are a godsend. thank you for such a calm, welcoming, and light dialogue with these concepts, which I now have a much more meaningful understanding of. You have a gift for teaching. In no way did I ever feel talked down to, either. I loved the change in scenery, the outdoors - really all of the elements of your video...including the space and cadence, which allowed me to take things in, as did the repetition. Thank you! Following your channel and hoping to find more videos to help me with concepts I'm dealing with in Physics!
You are a legend sir..😳
Pls keep posting🙂
ngl he might be dead
wow, thanks for your clever explanation, my brain is happy!
The easiest explanation for understanding Trigonometry!!! 👍. Keep uploading more concepts of Maths.
Learned sin cos tan years ago and never knew what it meant. Thank you so much!
This helped me so so much- teachers and other videos almost always only tell you how to do it but not what it IS and WHY you do it. Not only did you explain that in a way that was easy to understand you did so in different environments so it wasn't a dull white computer screen the whole time. It helped keep me focused and engaged which is really difficult to do when it comes to math 😅😂 I absolutely loved this video, thank you so much!
4 years of my life in 35 minutes! thanks!
+56 seconds
The best explanation of Sin, Cos and Tan I have ever heard. Very clear and easy to understand.
At the age of 62, and many years and classes past, I finally understand this. Excellent intro Jay!
So glad I found this. You made this so simple thank you!
life saver, tysm. it's better to conceptualize a topic than just learn "how to do it."
It is better to know why you are doing something the first place, rather than how to do it. If you don't know why then it is hard to replicate it in different circumstances. Welcome, to how I was taught Mathematics 40 years ago.
For the first time in my 59 years life I understood the basics of sine and cosine! Tnx man!
I'm 18 years old and nobody has taught me Sin , cos & tan the way you taught! All of my mathematics teachers said to remember the values but nobody said how we got them and ! And after watching the way they treat those who ask questions i never dared to ask one! Thank you so much 🙏 God bless you!
This video was so useful. I'm trying to catch up on a bunch of trig and algebra I never took in order to take calculus as an adult and this has helped so much. Thank you a ton!
I'd love to see more of this. This was incredible
One of the best tutorial on the topic.
A saviour.
Thanks a ton.
This was amazing, I can’t put into words how much this helped me understand this!
Thanks man! This really helped,
You deserve more views
This videos WAS AMAZING. Everything is clear! love it.
Awesome video Jay, one of the best educational videos I have seen. Excellent rhetoric!
Really well done, Jay. I'm 42 and got lost in math in high school because I didn't have instructors to explain it like you just did. You just taught me what Sin, Cos and Tan actually is. Please keep going with your videos!
Exactly what i was searching. Great video. Thanks
The last grade I completely finished in school was the eight ,: about a year later I passed The GED ; it was easy. However, it was in 1963. I wondered why I was not offered level higher jobs, so I did mostly construction work. Now I am retired and recently passed a legitimate GED, but it took approximately two years of study. Now I have been wanting to learn trig and had doubts about whether I could ever learn it, your video started at my level and developed it. Answering questions I could not vocalize. Thanks, Charles Murph
I can said that this is trigonometry video that i have been searching for.it really help logical thinking like me.best recommend to people who dont really understand sine,cosine and tangen
this is an amazing explanation, thank you!
Jay, this is such a great explanation, keep up the good work!
Thanks for helping me learn this at age of 28. What have I done in my clg days.. man, these has become interesting now... Superb explanation...
hi so y'know how you have those literal lightbulb moments about maths when something just becomes so OBVIOUS, when you didn't understand for a very long time before? I've already had more of those moments after watching the first 5 minutes of this video than I have in school this entire term. Excited to watch the next half an hour!!!!!
Edit: I got the end, I have indeed understood many things, and in the best way, like those moments I was talking about above when it just clicks and you go 'ohhh yeah of courseee!' So, thankyou so so much for this.
young men!!! you have made me understand what a great many teachers failed many years ago. Good job
I love that you made this
Im bad at maths and in mid 40s that I understand this especially having interests in GameDev, this helps a lot, thank you
That was awesome, now I understand everything intuitively
Wow I’m so surprised at how simple this is how much sense it makes thank you Jay !!
You really made it that easy for the beginners to understand these confusing sin cos and tan. What my teachers can't explain in the classroom, i always look for the solution searching youtube and it never disappointed me. A great video indeed.
Thank you for doing this. Love the video, including the fact that it was filmed outdoors.
This is the best comprehensive video in RUclips for someone who's really trying to understand what the trigonometric functions actually are! Thank you!
That was probably one of the best explained video on trigonometry yet!!
Thank you!
Excellent 🙏 beautiful ! Very well explained ! Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
Very useful.... thanks dude...
Great explanation mate! thanks
i never knew that sine and cosine are y, x coordinates, it clarifies a lot about sine and cosine on coordinate system. thanks a lot
Amazing video. I was so confused about all this before watching this. Thankyou.
Great creative video! I am 29 and have never had someone explain this in such a helpful way!
You are such an AWESOME teacher!! Much appreciated.
Amazing. U should really make more videos. It was very useful and solved all my doubts.
Working my way through Susskind's The Theoretical Minimum and this really helped me brush up on my trig. You're a great explainer! Cheers.
After many videos this was the best one
Wow this is explained incredibly well! Instant subscribe and follow.
You know what? English is not my mother tongue, it is my second language, but your explanation about sine consine, etc as not tangible things seems to me the best explanation I ever found in RUclips. You made it simple and clear so it has been easier to understand, even easier than I 've watched before spoken in my mother tongue. I really appreciate it so much and I am so grateful for finding your video. Thanks a lot my friend.
the most interactive video i found on youtube.......thank you bro.....love from india
This is the best explanation of the unit circle & trigonometric functions I have ever seen, I finally have a clear understanding of them. Thank you so much!
Excellent explanation. Thank you so much
Bro, thanks so so much. I have barely been able to follow in class, before this. You have been such a huge help!!
Brilliant! I wish this video was around 50 years ago when they just told us to memorize trig identities. Put into the unit circle it is totally clear, and one can create the formulas in a few seconds.
Thank you for this video. It is a great start to me understanding trigonometry! THANKS again!
This was incredibly helpful! Please make more videos!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I need to understand *why* something works to understand it and the number of times I gasped and shouted "OH! THAT'S WHY XYZ!" during this video!!!
Thanks for a very instructive trig lesson, Jay. Please keep up the good work.
AMAZING. GENIUS. Jay, this video is a masterpiece. Please please plEASE make more
I saw your video 2 minutes ago, its awesome!
And now I'm waiting for other videos.
oh my ...... the video i was searching for 12 days... understood the full basic origin in 35 minutes.. *N O I C E*
I loved the explanation bruhhh, good job. Thank you for this video❤
Thanks for the video, it really helped me
What a brillant teaching video. I really like it.
Thank you very much, i finally understand what is sine, cosine and tangent!!!!
Thank you very much for this ❤️❤️
Please make more videos about this, this is great!
Your explanation was so spot on that I couldn't but subscribe immediately to this channel. I am hopeful for more content. Keep up the great work. I really appreciate your devotion when explaining.
Great keep explaining us👍🏻
Bruh I'm happy and sad at same time...happy because i found this video and sad because this is the only video on your channel..u haven't Posted anything from past 1 year😢
Very impressively easy way to explain. Much appreciated your easy way of explanations. Thanks
Please post more videos on trigonometry. You are a great explainer.
