What is a RADIAN?!?!
2
♪♪Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Circumference Equals 2πr♪♪
Length of an arc (Arc Length): s = rθ s = (πrθ)/180 1 Revolution (Circumference): s = 2πr A radian is a unit of an angle equal to the angle at the center of a circle whose arc is equal to the length of the radius. How many degrees is a radian??
3
Arc Length Example A circle/pizza/tire/any round object has a radius of 6 inches. Find the length of the arc intercepted by a central angle of 120∘.
4
Area of a Sector Example
For a circle of radius 𝑟, the area 𝐴 of a sector with central angle 𝜃 is given by 𝐴 = (1/2)r2𝜃 where 𝜃 is measured in radians. Example A sprinkler sprays water over a distance of 30 ft while rotating through an angle of 150∘. What area of lawn receives water?
5
Converting Radians Degrees
To convert from radians to degrees, multiply the number of radians by 180°/π radians.
6
Examples Convert radians to degrees. Convert radians to degrees.
7
Converting Degrees Radians
To convert from degrees to radians, multiply the number of degrees by π radians/180°.
8
Examples Convert 90° to radians. Convert 120° to radians.
