WARM UP Find the value of the angle θ in degrees:
What you’ll learn about Trigonometric Functions of Any Angle Acute angles Obtuse angles Positive angles Negative angles … and why Trigonometry is a mathematical tool that allows us to solve real-world problems involving right triangle relationships…we can now move beyond acute angles, to consider any angle
Vocabulary The terms we will use today are: Standard position Vertex Initial side Terminal side Positive angle Negative angle Coterminal angles Reference triangle
Initial Side, Terminal Side Vertex
Positive Angle, Negative Angle
Coterminal Angles Two angles in an extended angle-measurement system can have the same initial side and the same terminal side, yet have different measures. These angles are called coterminal angles. In other words, what happens when the positive angle runs into the negative angle?
Coterminal Angles
Coterminal Angles Angles of 90˚, 450˚, and 270˚ are all coterminal Angles of π radians, 3π radians, and 9π radians are all coterminal Angles are coterminal whenever they differ by an integer multiple of 360 degrees or by an integer multiple of 2π radians
Example: Finding Coterminal Angles Find a positive and a negative angle that are coterminal with 30˚ Add 360˚ 30˚ + 360˚ = 390˚ Subtract 360˚ 30˚– 360˚ = –330˚
Example: Finding Coterminal Angles Find a positive and a negative angle that are coterminal with 30˚: 390˚ and –330˚
Classwork: Finding Coterminal Angles Find a positive and a negative angle that are coterminal with –150˚ Sketch the angles Find a positive and a negative angle that are coterminal with 2π/3 radians
Investigating First Quadrant Trigonometry Let P(x, y) be any point in the first quadrant (QI), and let r be the distance from P to the origin
Investigating First Quadrant Trigonometry What is sin θ in terms of x, y and/or r? What is cos θ in terms of x, y and/or r? What is tan θ in terms of x, y and/or r?
Investigating First Quadrant Trigonometry Let θ be the acute angle in standard position whose terminal side contains the point (3, 5). Find the six trig ratios of θ.

Trigonometric Functions of any Angle
Evaluating Trig Functions of an Angle θ Draw the angle θ in standard position, being careful to place the terminal side in the correct quadrant. Without declaring a scale on either axis, label a point P (other than the origin) on the terminal side of θ. Draw a perpendicular segment from P to the x-axis, determining the reference triangle. If this triangle is one of the triangles whose ratios you know, label the sides accordingly. If it is not, then you will need to use your calculator. Use the sides of the triangle to determine the coordinates of point P, making them positive or negative according to the signs of x and y in that particular quadrant. Use the coordinates of point P and the definitions to determine the six trig functions.
