Recent studies have highlighted the statistical relevance and applicability of trigonometric distributions for the modeling of various phenomena. This paper contributes to the subject by investigating a new trigonometric family of distributions defined from the alliance of the families known as sine-G and Topp-Leone generated (TL-G), inspiring the name of sine TL-G family. The characteristics of this new family are studied through analytical, graphical and numerical approaches. Stochastic ordering and equivalence results, determination of the mode(s), some expansions of distributional functions, expressions of the quantile function and moments and basics on order statistics are discussed. In addition, we emphasize the fact that the sine TL-G family is able to generate original, simple and pliant trigonometric models for statistical purposes, beyond the capacity of the former sine-G models and other top models of the literature. This fact is revealed with the special three-parameter sine TL-G model based on the inverse Lomax model, through an efficient parametric estimation and the adjustment of two data sets of interest.
