    At 7:03, I think the cos(h) should be at the bottom line and the bottom yellow line should not extent your the perimeter of the circle. Correct? So, you’d see that line approach 1. As is, the cos(h) line is already one, since this is a unit circle and it extends from the center to the perimeter.

    Thank you for sharing this beautiful video.
    There is a small mistake in minute 07:00 , you defined the radius of circle as "cos h" , but the "cos h" is part of yellow line which is located inside the right triangle and compose the base of triangle.

    That was wrong. Cosx is the adjacent side in a unit circle. Not the hypotenuse. But in unit circle as angle h->0 we have cosx -> 1 as the radius is 1

    • @sameerathreya9253
      @sameerathreya9253 6 років тому +2

      peter bauer, it is wrong...The part of the base subtended by sin (theta) and the origin is cos (theta) (Conventional). But, the line parallel to it originating from intersection point of the elevated radius ("hypotenuse") and the arc to Y-axis is the actual Cosine.

  • @adamlea6339
    @adamlea6339 11 місяців тому +1

    I don't get the explanation of the limit (cos(h)-1)/h. I understand visually that cos(h) -> 1 as h -> 0 but I don't see how it immediately follows that (cos(h)-1)/h -> 0 as h -> 0 since this tends to 0/0 which is undefined.

    • @samyaspapa
      @samyaspapa 8 місяців тому

      Yeah, his proof is wrong. Basically, you need to construct the "outside triangle" where the hypotenuse is a secant line of the circle. The height is sin(h) and the base is (1-cos(h)). Using trig identities: 1-cos(h) = 2sin(h/2)sin(h/2). Then you can solve for the secant line length which is 2sin(h/2). Then you use the limit that the perimeter of an N-gon approaches the circumference of a circle as N goes to infinity. This means that (2pi/h) times the secant line length equals 2pi. Which after some substitution will lead you to sin(h)/h -> 1. Then with the previous identity for 1-cos(h) you end up with (1-cos(h))/h equalling 0*1which is zero.

    How can the hypotenuse be "cosh" by definition (6:57)? Shouldn't it be equal to sqrt([cosh]^2+[sinh]^2) by Pythagorean theorem? Am I missing something?

    • @shivamsharanlall672
      @shivamsharanlall672 5 років тому +3

      Actually he did a bit mistake. Just replace the 1 at the base of the triangle with the cos h. Here the length of the base of the triangle is cos h but the radius of circle along the base is 1. (7:15)
      As the triangle becomes smaller and smaller, cos h approaches the complete length of radius of circle along the base which is 1. (7:40)

      Egregious error!! Any radius of the circle = 1 as it is the unit circle, which should be stated at the outset. If you look at the actual cos (h) length, it does approach one.

    • @tarannum7884
      @tarannum7884 Рік тому

      literally me neither but maybe it's like slope is basically theta...right...and we know that to calculate it we do like tan(theta) = sin(theta)/theta...we can write tan(theta) as sin(theta)/cos(theta) and then do math to find that theta = cos(theta) but it doesn't really make sense

    Why radians are used seems to be skated over… just stated as factual without explaining its necessity

    • @dougr.2398
      @dougr.2398 3 роки тому

      @Eucalypticus the ratio of circumference to diameter is a pure number, pi, and has no dimensions as it is feet divided by feet or meters over meters. Radians or degrees enter slightly differently. Degrees come from a Babylonian measure that is a multiple of sixty, and is to some “degree” (pun) nearly the number of days in the year, plus five festival days. Pi radians is 180° only because there are 2 π of them το make a unit circle

    • @dougr.2398
      @dougr.2398 3 роки тому

      @Eucalypticus I agree that radians are a more “natural” measure. I never disputed that. In fact, imposing 360° on a circle was arbitrary and capricious, as I already indirectly indicated.

    This is an excellent visualization and helps to understand the results, but doesn't really prove it (which is a very convoluted process than involves proving sin(h)/h is 1 as h approaches zero and (1-cos(h))/h is zero as h approaches zero. It is a very difficult proof and I believe Khan academy shows it well...not easy though
