478 Trigonometric functions
of quotients of polynomials in z. We suppose that -7r < 0 < 7r,
that -n/2 < 0/2 < a/2, and define z in terms of B by the formula
(8.51) z = tan 2

In fact, Figures 8.541 and 8.542 enable us to write the six trigonometric
functions of 8/2 and 0 in terms of z. Thus each of sin 0, cos 0, tan 0,

from this that if P and Q are polynomials in the six trigonometric func-
tions of x, then
