Dirac equation is based on a novel method that expresses the roots of a square-root operation in terms of matrices. Instead of this technique we propose an alternative approach. The square-root expression is represented as a hypotenuse and it is written in terms of a trigonometric summation of the remaining two edges of a right-angle triangle. Both of the positive and negative energy terms are taken into account and a new matrix equation is obtained. The plane wave solutions of the new differential equation are studied.
