Warm-Up 3/26 Fahrenheit
Rigor: You will learn how to convert from degrees to radians and radians to degrees. Relevance: You will be able to solve real world right triangle trigonometry problems using degrees and radians.
Trig 2: Degrees and Radians
Angle Starting position Position after rotation
counterclockwise clockwise
The most common angular unit of measure is the degree. 1° is formed by rotating the initial side of a complete revolution. Angle Measure: amount of rotation about vertex needed to “open” rays.
Conversions: Radians to Degrees: Multiply by Degrees to Radians: Multiply by
Example 1: Convert From Degrees to Radians. = 120° a. 120° b. – 45 = – 45°
Example 2: Convert From Radians to Degrees. a. b.
Coterminal Angles Degrees All angles + 360n Radians All angles + 2n
Example 3a: Find all angles and draw 2 Coterminal Angles. a. 45° 45 = 405 45 – 360 = – 315 All Angles: 45 n
Example 3b: Find all angles and draw 2 Coterminal Angles. b.
