CHAPTER 6: Trigonometric Functions

MAIN KEYS

c1

Convert between Decimal and Degree, Minute, Second that Measures for Angles

When a ray, or half-line is a portion of a line that starts at a point V on the line and extends the indefinity in 1 direction

When two rays are drawn into the common vertex they form a ray of angle for the initial side

An angle 0 = standard position for the vertex at the origin of the rectangular coordinate system and the initial side for the coincides and positive x-axis

Angles and Degree Measure

The angle is formed by the rotating initial side that is exactly once in the counterclockwise and direction to = 1 revolution

One degree, is 1/360 revolution

Convert from the Degrees to Radians and from Radians to Degrees

Subdivisions of a degree may be obtained by the use of decimals, the notion of minutes and seconds

One minute , is 1/60 degree

One second, 1/3600 degree

1 counterclockwise revolution= 360 degrees

Find the Area of a Sector of a Circle

0 measured in radians, is a central angle of this circle.

consider a circles of a radius r and two central angles

Theorem Area of a Sector

The area A of the sector of a circle of radius r formed by a central angle of 0 radians

Find the Linear Speed of an Object

Distinguish the linear speed v of the object

v= s/t

w= 0/t

Key Terms

r

Angle in Standard Position: Vertex is at the origin1 Degree = 1/ 360 revolution 1 Radian= The measure of a central angle of a circle and the length is equal to the radius of the circle. Unit Circle= A circle with the radius of 1 unit, and the centered origin of the coordinate plane. sine (sin)= length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the hypotenuse cosine (cos)= an angle in a right triangle is the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to the angle to the length of the hypotenuse tangent (tan)= ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the side adjacent to the angle.cosecant (csc) = csc(0)=1/sin(0)secant (sec)= sec(0)-1/cos(0)cotangent(cot)= cot(0)=1/tan(0)

CHAPTER 7: Analytic Trigonometry

MAIN KEYS

The Inverse Sine, Cosine, and Tangent Functions

Define the Inverse Sine Function and the horizontal line y=b and where b is between the -1 and 1

Intersects the graph of y=sin x infinitely many times for the horizontal line test

The Inverse Trigonometric Functions

Define the Inverse Secant, Cosecant, and Cotangent Functions

Most calculators do not have the keys to find the inverse cotangent, cosecant, or secant function

Evaluate them by converting the inverse trigonometric functions

Trigonometric Identities

Identically Equal, Identity, and Conditional Equations

f(x)=g(x)

Two functions f and g are identically equal

For every value of x both of the functions are defined

Sum and Difference Formulas

The derivation of trigonometric identities by obtaining formulas involves the sum or the difference of two angles

Use the Unit Circle to find the formulas

Double- angle and half-angle Formulas

In order to find the formulas use:

Find Established Identities

Express Sums as Products

Use the derive formulas for writing the products of sines or cosines as sums or differences

CHAPTER 8: Applications of Trigonometric Functions

Right Triangle Trigonometry; Applications

A triangle is one angle that has a right angle (90 degrees)

The opposite side of the right angle is called the hypotenuse

The Law of Sines

If none of the angles of a triangle is a right triangle it is called oblique

Solve SAA or ASA Triangles

Solve SSA Triangles

Solve to Applied Problems

The Law of Cosines

The square of one side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the two other sides and subtract twice their product times the cosine of their angle that is included

Solve SAS Trangles

Solve SSS Triangles

Solve Applied Problems
