- Rational_trigonometry abstract "Rational trigonometry is a proposed reformulation of metrical planar and solid geometries (which includes trigonometry), by Norman J. Wildberger, an associate professor at UNSW, in his 2005 book Divine Proportions: Rational Trigonometry to Universal Geometry. According to New Scientist, part of his motivation for an alternative to traditional trigonometry was to avoid some problems that occur when infinite series are used in mathematics. Rational trigonometry avoids direct use of transcendental functions like sine and cosine by substituting their squared equivalents. Wildberger draws inspiration from mathematicians predating Georg Cantor's infinite set-theory, like Gauss and Euclid, whom he claims were far more wary of using infinite sets than modern mathematicians. To date, rational trigonometry is largely unmentioned in mainstream mathematical literature. Early claims by the author that rational trigonometry requires fewer steps to solve typical problems and avoids logical inconsistencies asscociated with classical trigonometry were subject to dispute by at least one other professional mathematician.(See #Notability and criticism below.)".
