They introduced concepts called Jya (Sine) and Cojya (Cosine) — terms rooted in Sanskrit and astronomy. These ideas bridged geometry, observation, and philosophy, revealing how India’s early mathematicians connected the cosmos with computation.   The Birth of Jya and Cojya In modern trigonometry, the sine of an angle represents the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse.
