TRIGONOMETRY Trigonometry Comes from two Greek words trigonon and metron, meaning “triangle measurement”

Radian Measure Consider an arc of length s on a circle of radius r. The measure of the central angle that intercepts the arc is  = s/r radians.  O r s

Definition of a Radian One radian is the measure of the central angle of a circle that intercepts an arc equal in length to the radius of the circle. RADIAN-unit of measure for angles 2π=1 revolution

Angles An angle is formed by two rays that have a common endpoint called the vertex. One ray is called the initial side and the other the terminal side. The arrow near the vertex shows the direction and the amount of rotation from the initial side to the terminal side. A θ B Terminal Side Initial Side Vertex C

Angles of the Rectangular Coordinate System An angle is in standard position if its vertex is at the origin of a rectangular coordinate system and its initial side lies along the positive x-axis. x y Terminal Side Initial Side Vertex   is positive Positive angles rotate counterclockwise. x y Terminal Side Initial Side Vertex   is negative Negative angles rotate clockwise.

Measuring Angles Using Degrees The figures below show angles classified by their degree measurement. An acute angle measures less than 90º. A right angle, one quarter of a complete rotation, measures 90º and can be identified by a small square at the vertex. An obtuse angle measures more than 90º but less than 180º. A straight angle has measure 180º. 90º Right angle 1/4 rotation  Acute angle 0º <  < 90º  Obtuse angle 90º <  < 180º 180º Straight angle 1/2 rotation

Coterminal Angles An angle of xº is coterminal (have the same terminal ray) with angles of xº + k · 360º where k is an integer.

Example Assume the following angles are in standard position. Find a positive angle less than 360º that is coterminal with: a. a 420º angle b. a –120º angle. Solution We obtain the coterminal angle by adding or subtracting 360º. Our need to obtain a positive angle less than 360º determines whether we should add or subtract. a. For a 420º angle, subtract 360º to find a positive coterminal angle. 420º – 360º = 60º A 60º angle is coterminal with a 420º angle. These angles, shown on the next slide, have the same initial and terminal sides.

Example cont. x y 420º 60º x y 240º -120º Solution b. For a –120º angle, add 360º to find a positive coterminal angle. -120º + 360º = 240º A 240º angle is coterminal with a –120º angle. These angles have the same initial and terminal sides.

Examples- find two angles, one positive and one negative, that are coterminal with each given angle 10° 100° -5° 400° π π/2 -π/3 4π 370°,-350° 460°,-260° 355°,-365° 40°,-320° 3π,-π 5π/2,-3π/2 5π/3,-7π/3 ±2π

Conversion between Degrees and Radians Using the basic relationship  radians = 180º, To convert degrees to radians, multiply degrees by ( radians) / 180 To convert radians to degrees, multiply radians by 180 / ( radians)

Example Convert each angle in degrees to radians 40º 75º -160º

Example cont. Solution: 40º = 40*/180 = 2  /9 75º = 75*  /180 = 5  /12 -160º = -160*  /180 = -8  /9

Length of a Circular Arc Let r be the radius of a circle and  the non- negative radian measure of a central angle of the circle. The length of the arc intercepted by the central angle is s = r   O s r

Example A circle has a radius of 7 inches. Find the length of the arc intercepted by a central angle of 2/3 Solution: s = (7 inches)*(2  /3) =14  /3 inches

Definitions of Linear and Angular Speed If a point is in motion on a circle of radius r through an angle of  radians in time t, then its linear speed is v = s/t where s is the arc length given by s = r , and its angular speed is  = /t

Linear Speed in Terms of Angular Speed The linear speed, v, of a point a distance r from the center of rotation is given by v=r where  is the angular speed in radians per unit of time.
