Aryabhata's sine approximation : Conversion for use with interval of $[-pi,pi]$












2












$begingroup$


There's this sine approximation (mentioned in title) which works over the interval $[0, pi]$:
$$
sin x approx frac{16x(pi-x)} {5pi^2-4x(pi-x)}
$$

With little changes it can be put work over the interval $[-pi, 0]$:
$$
sin x approx frac{-16x(-pi-x)} {5pi^2-4x(-pi-x)}
$$

Approximation results as - https://www.desmos.com/calculator/cvoewagqer



Is there any change to join these two formulas into one equation to work in range $[-pi, pi]$? If there's ... how?

    Multiply the first one by sign(x) and then replace all the other x's by $|x|?$

How about $$ sin x = (text{sgn}(x) 16x(text{sgn}(x)pi-x) / 5pi^2-4x(text{sgn}(x)pi-x))$$
