In 2022, two high school students created a trigonometric proof of the Pythagorean Theorem—something that’s only ever been accomplished by a few professional mathematicians. Now, a new article not ...

Two high school students have proved the Pythagorean theorem in a way that one early 20th-century mathematician thought was impossible: using trigonometry. Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya Jackson, both at ...

Trigonometric identities might seem like abstract mathematical concepts, but they're actually powerful problem-solving tools that can transform seemingly impossible equations into manageable solutions ...

Two US college students, who discovered a new way to prove Pythagoras' famous 2,000-year-old theorem in 2022 have now come up with five different ways of solving the problem using trigonometry. Their ...

Formulae for ζ(2n) and Lχ4 (2n + 1) involving Euler and tangent numbers are derived using the hyperbolic secant probability distribution and its moment generating function. In particular, the Basel ...
