Trigonometry with The Unit Circle Cited and Colored

Trigonometry involves the study of angles and their relationships within circles, using various functions and measurements. One central concept is the unit circle, a circle with a radius of one, which helps in understanding how angles and arc lengths relate.

Trigonometry with The Unit Circle

Area of the Sector of a Circle

A=1/2 r2 θ

6 trigonometric functions

Rarely used: -cosecant θ=Hypotenuse/Opposite (reciprocal of sine) -secant θ=Hypotenuse/Adjacent (reciprocal of cosine) -cotangent θ=Adjacent/Opposite (reciprocal of tangent)
Most commonly used: -sine θ=Opposite/Hypotenuse -cosecant θ=Adjacent/Hypotenuse -tangent θ=Opposite/Adajacent

Exact Value vs Approximate Value

Example Exact value: √5 __ 5 Approximate value: .4472
Approximate Value A rounded decimal that is found on a calculator
Exact Value Simplified fractions that can include radicals

Types of Angles

Quadrantal Angle: an angle with its terminal side on the x-axis or y-axis

Reference Angle: acute angles formed by the terminal side and the x-axis

Coterminal Angles: Angles with the same initial and terminal sides
45 degrees is the coterminal angle of 405 degrees Picture citation: http://www.scienceforums.net/uploads/SAngle.JPG

Radian: One radian is the measure of a central angle that intercepts an arc s equal in length to the radius r of the circle. Picture citation: https://www.varsitytutors.com/assets/vt-hotmath-legacy/hotmath_help/topics/radian-measure/radian-measure-image002.gif
