Angles and Degree Measure › An angle is formed by two rays with a common endpoint › That endpoint is called the vertex › Angles can be labeled by the angle symbol ( ) and the vertex. The angle below may be labeled A A angle side vertex
3
Angles › Measured in degrees 1 degree (°) is 1/360 of a circle 180° is ½ a circle 90° (a right angle) is ¼ a circle Minutes and seconds › A minute (‘) is 1/60 of a degree › A second (“) is 1/60 of a minute Hence, 1 second = 1/3600 of a degree Hint: It may be easier to convert between degree and DMS (Degree – Minute – Second) forms if you think of degrees as hours
4
Converting between decimal form and DMS form Write 35° 15’ 27” in decimal form › Divide minutes by 60 › Divide seconds by 3600 › Add all numbers together ›
5
Converting between decimal form and DMS form (part 2) Write 48.3625° in DMS form › The whole number is the degree. › Multiply by 60. The whole number is the minute. › Multiply by 60. The whole number is the second ›

Similar Triangles and Trigonometric Ratios › Pneumonic Phrase: SOH-CAH-TOA › Learn it, live it, love it sin (sine) = opposite / hypotenuse cos (cosine) = adjacent / hypotenuse tan (tangent) = opposite / adjacent › Reciprocals of trigonometric ratios csc (cosecant) = 1 / sin = hypotenuse / opposite sec (secant) = 1 / cos = hypotenuse / adjacent cot (cotangent) = 1 / tan = adjacent / opposite › Remembering the reciprocal ratios Tan/Cot as inverses is pretty self explanatory Sin is inverse of CSC (S inverse of C) Cos is inverse of SEC (C is inverse of S)
7
Evaluating Trigonometric Ratios › Evaluate the six trigonometric ratios of the angle θ shown below › sin θ = 5 / 13csc θ = 13 / 5 cos θ = 12 / 13sec θ = 13 / 12 tan θ = 5 / 12cot θ = 12 / 5 θ 13 12 5
8
Evaluating Trigonometric Ratios › Evaluate the six trigonometric ratios of 62° by using the triangle shown below › sin 62° = 3 / 3.4csc 62° = 3.4 / 3 cos 62° = 1.6 / 3.4sec 62° = 3.4 / 1.6 tan 62° = 3 / 1.6cot 62° = 1.6 / 3 θ 3 3.4 62° 1.6
9
Evaluating Trigonometric Ratios on a calculator › Calculators have buttons to evaluate sin, cos, tan › To get the trigonometric ratio, simply input the angle value into your calculator. Make sure you are in degree mode 2 nd → M ORE → 3 rd item down (we’ll be using radians later) › Evaluate the six trigonometric ratios of 20° sin 20° ≈ 0.3420csc 20° = 1 / sin 20° ≈ 2.9238 cos 20° ≈ 0.9397sec 20° = 1 / cos 20° ≈ 1.0642 tan 20° ≈ 0.3640cot 20° = 1 / tan 20° ≈ 2.7475
10
Special Angles › For 30-60-90 and 45-45-90 triangles, we use exact values instead of calculator estimates. › 30° 2 1 60° 45° 1 1
