  2. y Radian measure s = r r x r One radian is the measure of a central angle that intercepts an arc s equal in length to the radius r of thecircle.

  3. Radian measure, continued. y s = 2r • It follows that a general angle has radian measure where s is the arc length intercepted by the angle. r x r Because the circumference of a circle is s = 2r units, it follows that the angle corresponding to a complete counterclockwise revolution is 2 radians.

  4. Quadrants and angles Quadrant II Quadrant I Quadrant IV Quadrant III

  5. Degree measure • Since a full counterclockwise revolution corresponds to 360º and also to 2 radians, we have • To convert degrees to radians, multiply degrees by • To convert radians to degrees, multiply radians by • Using we can also convert. For example, to find the degree measure for simply divide by 3 to get

  6. Arc length • For a general angle, the radian measure is where s is the arc length intercepted by the angle and r is the radius of the circle. • If we multiply through by r, we obtain This is the formula for arc length, but it only applies when is given in radians. • Problem. What length of arc is cut off by an angle of 120 degrees on a circle of radius 12 cm? Solution. First convert to radians, then multiply by 12 to get an arc length of

  7. Distance traveled by a rolling wheel of radius r = 1 • Suppose the wheel rolls without slipping as shown.

  8. Effect of tire wear on mileage • The odometer in your car measures the mileage travelled. • The odometer uses the angle that the axle turns to compute the mileage s in the formula • Question. With worn tires, are the actual miles travelled more or less than the odometer miles?

  9. Area of a sector of a circle Sector is shaded region • For a circle of radius r, the area A of a sector of the circle with central angle is given by where is measured in radians. • What area does A become when r

  10. The unit circle The equation of the unit circle is y y x x On the unit circle, arc length = radian measure since r =1. Also, we write t for arc length instead of s.

  16. Domain, range, and period of sine and cosine • Domain of sine and cosine: All real numbers • Range of sine and cosine: [–1, 1] • A function f is periodic if there exists a positive real number c such that for all t in the domain of f. The smallest number c for which f is periodic is called the period of f. • Since it follows that sine and cosine are periodic with period 2.

  24. Fundamental Trigonometric Identities • Reciprocal identities • Quotient identities • Pythagorean identities

  25. Evaluating trigonometric functions using trig identities Evaluate cosine for the triangle shown. • Using trig identities: hyp 5 12

  26. Solving Right Triangles • One of the angles of a right triangle is 90°. Thus, one part is already known and the only additional information necessary is either two sides or an acute angle and a side. With this additional information, it is possible to solve for the remaining parts. • Making a carefully labeled sketch of the triangle is important in solving these problems. • The top of a 200-foot tower is to be anchored by cables that make an angle of 30° with the ground. How long must the cables be? How far from the base of the tower should the anchors be placed? sin 30° = 200/h => h = 200/sin 30° = 400 ft tan 30° = 200/x => x = 200/tan 30° = 346.4 ft h 200 ft 30° x

  28. Definitions of trigonometric functions of any angle y Let be an angle in standard position with (x, y) a point onthe terminal side of and x

  29. Interpretation of "any angle" definition If we replace by similar right triangles may be used and • The "any angle" definition is the same as the "unit circle" definition but on a circle of radius r   Since both x and are negative Thus, cos has the same value by either definition.

  30. Reference Angles • Let θbe an angle in standard position. Its reference angle is the acute angle θ' formed by the terminal side of θand the horizontal axis. • Example. Find the reference angle of

  31. Evaluating trigonometric functions of any angle θ • Determinethe function value for the associated reference angle θ'. • Depending on the quadrant in which θlies, affix the appropriate sign to the function value. • Example. Find the value of cos 135º.

  32. The Unit Circle For any angle : (x,y) = (cos , sin ) y x

  33. Evaluating trig functions • Let θbe an angle in Quadrant III such that sin θ = Find the value of cos θusing trig identities. • Using sin2θ + cos2θ = 1, we have It follows that Since θis in Quadrant III, • It is also possible to solve for cos θ using a reference angle. See the next slide.

  34. Evaluating trig functions using a reference angle Find cos θfor the angle θshown where sin θ = By Pythagoras on the triangle, So, |x| = 12. Therefore, cos θ' =12/13 and cos θ = –12/13since θis in QIII.

  39. Transformations of sine and cosine curves • Consider the functions defined by • We will consider the effects of the constants a, b, c, and d on the shape of the basic sine and cosine curves. • First, the constant a determines a vertical stretch (a > 1) or a vertical shrink (0 < a < 1) of the basic sine and cosine curves. • |a| is the amplitude, which is half the distance between the maximum and minimum values of the functions *. *

  40. Example for vertical stretch, vertical shrink Consider the functions defined by y x

  41. Example for horizontal stretch • Consider the function defined by • The transformed graph will exhibit a horizontal stretch and the new period will be 4. • In general, will have a period of y y x

  42. Horizontal translation of the sine and cosine curves • The constant c in the general equations creates a horizontal translation of the sine and cosine curves. • The graphs of have the following characteristics. (Assume b > 0.) The left and right endpoints of a one-cycle interval can be determined by solving the equations • The graphs of and are shifted by an amount c/b in their respective general equation. The number c/b is called the phase shift.

  43. Example for horizontal translation • Consider the function defined by y = sin(x–/2). • The amplitude is 1, the period is 2, and the phase shift is 1/2. • x–/2 = 0 => x = 0.5, x–/2 = 2 => x = 2.5 so the interval [0.5, 2.5] corresponds to one cycle of the graph. y y = sin(x–/2) y = sin x x

  44. Sine with a phase shift of –π/2 • plot([sin(t),sin(t+Pi/2)], t = –Pi..Pi, color = black); • The shifted sine curve is the cosine. Likewise, we can shift the cosine curve right by π/2 to get the sine.

  45. Vertical translation of the sine and cosine curves • The constant d in the general equations creates a vertical translation of the sine and cosine curves. The line y = d is called the midline of the translated curve. Note that amplitude = distance from midline to max value = distance from midline to min value. • Consider the function defined by y =0.5+cos x. amplitude = 1 midline is y = 0.5 x
