TUC-1 Measurements of Angles “Things I’ve Got to Remember from the Last Two Years”

MPH 9/11Precalculus The Coordinate Plane In the coordinate plane, angles in standard position are created by rotating about the origin (the vertex of the angle). The initial ray is the positive x –axis. In the coordinate plane, angles in standard position are created by rotating about the origin (the vertex of the angle). The initial ray is the positive x –axis. Initial Ray Terminal Ray Positive Rotation – counterclockwise Negative Rotation - clockwise

MPH 9/11Precalculus The Radian Angles can also be measured in radians. A central angle measures one radian when the measure of the intercepted arc equals the radius of the circle. In the circle shown, the length of the intercepted arc equals the radius of the circle. Hence, the angle theta measures 1 radian. r r r

Wait! What is a radian? Visual animation of what a radian represents. Visual animation of what a radian represents.

MPH 9/11Precalculus Radians If one investigated one revolution of a circle, the arc length would equal the circumference of the circle. The measure of the central angle would be 2 radians. Since 1 revolution of a circle equals 360, 2 radians = 360!!

MPH 9/11Precalculus Coterminal Angles Angles that have the same initial and terminal ray are called coterminal angles. Graph 30 and 390 to observe this. Coterminal angles may be found by adding or subtracting increments of 360 or 2
12
MPH 9/11Precalculus Coterminal Angles Example 1 Example 1 Find two coterminal angles (one positive and one negative) for 425 . 425 - 360 = 65 65 - 360 = -295 65 - 360 = -295 The general expression would be: 425 + 360 n where n integer (I)
13
MPH 9/11Precalculus Coterminal Angles Example 2 Example 2 Find two coterminal angles (one positive and one negative) for The general expression would be:
14
MPH 9/11Precalculus Coterminal Angles Example 3 Example 3 Find two coterminal angles (one positive and one negative) for -3.187 R. -3.187 – 2π = -9.470 R -3.187 + 2π = 3.096 R -3.187 + 2π = 3.096 R The general expression would be: -3.187 + 2πn where n I
