1 Chapter 1.6 Trigonometric Functions

2 The Unit Circle

3 Degree/Radian Conversion To convert a degree measure to radians, multiply by π radians180° To convert a radian measure to degrees, multiply by 180°π radians

4 Examples 1) 120° 2) -45° 3) 5π6 4) -3π2

5 Radian Measure The RADIAN MEASURE of the angle ACB at the center of the unit circle equals the length of the arc that ACB cuts from the unit circle. Radius =1

6 Finding Arc Length Find the length of an arc on a circle of radius 3 by a central angle of measure 2π/3. S = r θ = 3(2π/3) = 2π

7 An Angle θ In Standard Position When an angle of measure θ is placed in standard position at the center of a circle of radius r, the six trigonometric functions of θ are defined as follows: sin θ = y/rcsc θ = r/y Cos θ = x/rsec θ = r/x Tan θ = y/xcot θ = x/y

12 Periodicity Periodic Function, Period: A function f(x) is periodic if there is a postive number p such that f(x + p) = f(x) for every value of x. The smallest such value of p is the period of f.

13 Transformations of Trigonometric Graphs Y = a f ( b ( x + c ) ) + d A = vertical stretch or shrink/reflection about x-axis B = horizontal stretch or shrink/ reflection about y-axis C = Horizontal shift D = vertical shift

14 Finding Angles in degrees and Radians Find the measure of cos -1 (-0.5) in degrees and radians. Put the calculator in degree mode and enter cos -1 (-0.5). You will get 120 degrees.

15 Using the Inverse Trigonometric Functions Sinx = 0.7 Take the sin -1 of both sides. X = sin -1 (0.7) X = 0.775
