California Standard: Mathematical Analysis 9 California Standard: Mathematical Analysis 9.0 Students compute by hand, the values of the trigonometric functions. 2.0 Students know the definition of sine and cosine as y- and x- coordinates of points on the unit circle.
By following instructions, students will be able to: OBJECTIVE(S): By following instructions, students will be able to: Evaluate trigonometric functions of any angle.
Recall: Soh-Cah-Toa
The Six Trigonometric Functions Let be an acute angle of a right triangle. Then the six trigonometric functions of the angle are defined as follows.
Definitions of Trigonometric Functions of Any Angle Let be an angle in standard position with (x,y) a point on the terminal side of and . (x,y) x y r
EXAMPLE 1: Let (-4,3) be a point on the terminal side of an angle θ in standard position. Evaluate the six trigonometric functions of θ. 7
