Radian, Degree Measure and the Unit Circle of Trigonometric Functions

Topic Review on "Title":

Angle:

An angle consists of two rays, R1 and R2, with a common vertex.

 

Standard position of an angle:

An angle is said to be in standard position if its vertex is at the origin of a rectangular coordinate system and its initial side coincides with the positive x-axis.

 

Co-terminal angles:

Two angles in standard position are said to be co-terminal if they have the same initial and terminal sides.

 

Arc length:

For a circle of radius , a central angle of  radius subtends and arc whose length is

.

 is measured in radians.

Area of a sector:

The area of the sector of a circle of radius formed by a central angle  radians is

 where the unit of angle  must be in radians.

 

Linear speed: The linear speed is defined as .

Angular speed:  The angular speed is defined as .

The domain of the sine function:

The domain of the sine function is the set of all real numbers.

The domain of the cosine function:

The domain of the cosine function is the set of all real numbers.

 

Periodic function:

A function is called periodic if there is a positive number such that, whenever  is in the domain of so is and . P is the period of

 

The Period of sine and cosine functions:

The period of sine and cosine functions is

"Title" Tutorial Summary :

This tutorial covers angles and the relation of angles with respect to radians and trigonometric functions. The angle measure is represented in different ways as it is shown in the examples. The properties of angles are mentioned along with their use in trigonometry problems. 

Next the area of a sector is shown through the use of angles and the radius of a circle. Finally, the concept of a trigonometric function is discussed with the use of the unit circle. Calculation of the values of trigonometric functions of a quadrantal angle is shown with visual examples. The use of calculators to find values of trigonometric functions is important to the understanding of how you approximate trig functions.


Tutorial Features:

Specific Tutorial Features:
• Example problems with step by step solutions and accompanying diagrams to help illustrate the usage of angles in finding the values of trigonometric functions.
