1 14.2 The Circular Functions
Locate the points on the unit circle and identify the angle measure in standard position that would pass through that point.

2 Circular Functions Defined:
Circular Functions Defined: ** All angles in standard position – on the UNIT CIRCLE 1. The sine function or sin sin 90° 180° 270° 360°

3 Circular Functions Defined:
Circular Functions Defined: ** All angles in standard position - on the UNIT CIRCLE. 2. The cosine function or cos cos 90° 180° 270° 38°

4 Four more circular functions defined: (Where (x,y) is the point of intersection of the terminal ray and the unit circle!!)

5 1) An angle has a tangent of 1. 5 and it is in the 3rd quadrant
1) An angle has a tangent of 1.5 and it is in the 3rd quadrant. What is the sine of this angle?

6 2) A terminal ray contains the point (4,-3)
2) A terminal ray contains the point (4,-3). Find the exact values of the six trig functions for the angle associated with this point. Then, find the measure of the positive angle to the nearest degree.

7 3) Use your calculator to find the following to the thousandths place.
a) sin 42° b) cos 42° c) tan 42° d) cot 42° e) sec 42° f) csc 42°

8 The Pythagorean Identities

9 Back to Problem #1: An angle has a tangent of 1
Back to Problem #1: An angle has a tangent of 1.5 and it is in the 3rd quadrant. What is the sine of this angle? How can we use the trig identity?
