U SING I DENTITIES TO E VALUATE T RIG V ALUES Today we will work with Identities to determine the values of trig functions given certain information. Process 1. Determine which Quadrant the terminal side is in. 2. Write down all 6 trig functions = 3. Fill in what you know. 4. Use the appropriate identities (and Pythagorean Theorem) to determine the remaining trig values.
