  1. Chapter 4 Review of the Trigonometric Functions

  2. Review Standard Position Vertex at origin The initial side of an angle in standard position is always located on the positivex-axis.

  3. Positive and negative angles When sketching angles, always use an arrow to show direction.

  4. Classifying Angles Angles in standard position are often classified according to the quadrant in which their terminal sides lie. Example: 50º is a 1st quadrant angle. 208º is a 3rd quadrant angle. II I -75º is a 4th quadrant angle. III IV

  5. Classifying Angles Standard position angles that have their terminal side on one of the axes are called quadrantal angles. For example, 0º, 90º, 180º, 270º, 360º, … are quadrantal angles.

  6. Coterminal Angles Angles that have the same initial and terminal sides are coterminal. Angles  and  are coterminal.

  7. Degrees, minutes, and seconds 1 minute (1’) = degree OR 1° = ______ minutes 1 second (1”) = _____ minute OR 1’ = _____” Example Convert to decimal degrees:

  8. Degrees, minutes, and seconds Conversions between decimal degrees and degrees, minutes, seconds can be easily accomplished using your TI graphing calculator. • The ANGLE menu on your calculator has built-in features for converting between decimal degrees and DMS. Note that the seconds () symbol is not in the ANGLE menu. Use  for  symbol.

  9. Practice Using your TI graphing calculator, Convert to decimal degrees to the nearest hundredth of a degree. Convert 57.328° to an equivalent angle expressed to the nearest second.

  10. Hypotenuse Side opposite  Side adjacent to  Review The sides of a right triangle Take a look at the right triangle, with an acute angle, , in the figure below. Notice how the three sides are labeled in reference to .

  11. Review Definitions of the Six Trigonometric Functions To remember the definitions of Sine, Cosine and Tangent, we use the acronym : “SOH CAH TOA”

  12. y (x, y) r  x Definitions of the Trig Functions Definitions of Trigonometric Functions of an Angle Let  be an angle in standard position with (x, y) a point on the terminal side of  and r is the distance from the origin to the point. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we have .

  13. y (12, 5) 5 r  x 12 Example Let (12, 5) be a point on the terminal side of . Find the value of the six trig functions of . First you must find the value of r:

  19. 30º 2 60º 1 Review Special Right Triangles The 30º- 60º- 90º Triangle Ratio of the sides: Find the exact values & decimal approximations (to 3 sig digits) of the six trig functions for 60 sin 60 = csc 60 = cos 60= sec 60 = tan 60 = cot 60 =

  20. Using the calculator to evaluate trig functions Make sure the MODE is set to the correct unit of angle measure (i.e. Degree vs. Radian) Example: Findto three significant digits.

  21. Using the calculator to evaluate trig functions For reciprocal functions, you may use the  button, but DO NOT USE THE INVERSE FUNCTIONS (e.g. )! Example: 1. Find2. Find (to 3 significant dig) (to 4 significant dig)

  22. Angles and Accuracy of Trigonometric Functions

  23. Review The inverse trig functions give the measure of the angle if we know the value of the function. Notation:The inverse sine function is denoted as sin-1x or arcsinx. It means “the angle whose sine is x”. The inverse cosine function is denoted as cos-1x or arccosx. It means “the angle whose cosine is x”. The inverse tangent function is denoted as tan-1x or arctanx. It means “the angle whose tangent is x”.

  24. Example is the angle whose sine is Think of the related statement  must be 30°, therefore

  25. Examples Evaluate the following inverse trig functions using the calculator. Give answer in degrees.

  27. A= b c B C a= Answers: Example Solve the right triangle with the indicated measures. Solution

  28. A c= b C a= B Example Solution

  29. Review Angle of Elevation and Angle of Depression The angle of elevation for a point above a horizontal line is the angle formed by the horizontal line and the line of sight of the observer at that point. The angle of depression for a point below a horizontal line is the angle formed by the horizontal line and the line of sight of the observer at that point. Horizontal line Angle of depression Angle of elevation Horizontal line
