Definitions Associated with Angles Ray – part of a line that has only one endpoint, and extends forever in the opposite direction Angle – formed by 2 rays Initial side – beginning Terminal side – ending Vertex – endpoints of initial and terminal sides Standard Position – initial side on positive x-axis, vertex at the origin Positive Angle – rotates counterclockwise (across the top) Negative Angle – rotates clockwise (across the bottom)
Definitions Associated with Angles Quadrants and their signs: Acute angle: Right angle: Obtuse angle: Straight angle:
Measuring Angles Central angle – measure of intercepted arc Degrees (angle of rotation) Radians (length of intercepted arc)
Cool Formula Converting between degrees and radians
Examples for angle conversions
Angles in Standard Position -Initial side must be on the positive x-axis -Rotation must be labeled -All complementary angles should be labeled
Draw Angles in Standard Position
Coterminal Angles In simple terms – 2 ways of arriving at the same terminal side. Find an angle that is coterminal and draw the angles in standard position.
