Radian Measure and Coterminal Angles Take out your homework from Friday!!!
Warm-up (1:30 m) Using your “Degrees and Radians” handout from Friday, describe how you convert between degrees and radians.
Converting Between Degrees and Radians To convert degrees to radians, multiply by To convert radians to degrees, multiply by
Converting Between and Radians, cont Degrees → Radians Radians → Degrees
Picture of Unit Circle with missing degrees and radian measures Picture of Unit Circle with missing degrees and radian measures. Students fill missing measures.
Radian Measure Another way of measuring angles Convenient because major measurements of a circle (circumference, area, etc.) are involve pi Radians result in easier numbers to use
Radian Measure, cont.
The Unit Circle – An Introduction Circle with radius of 1 1 Revolution = 360° 2 Revolutions = 720° Positive angles move counterclockwise around the circle Negative angles move clockwise around the circle
Sketching Radians 90° 0° 180° 360° 270°
Sketching Radians Trick: Convert the fractions into decimals and use the leading coefficients of pi

Coterminal Angles co – terminal Coterminal Angles – angles that end at the same spot with, joint, or together ending
Coterminal Angles, cont. Each positive angle has a negative coterminal angle Each negative angle has a positive coterminal angle
Solving for Coterminal Angles If the angle is greater than 2 pi, subtract 2 pi from the given angle. If the angle is less than 0, add 2 pi to the given angle. You may need to add or subtract 2 pi more than once!!! Trick: Add or subtract the coefficients of pi rather than the entire radian measure
Examples: Find a coterminal angle between 0 and 2 pi
Your Turn: Find a coterminal angle between 0 and 2 pi
