1 Reference Angles Find the reference angle and Find Sin, Cos and Tan using reference angles.

2 Find the reference angle
y Most important idea is the triangle is always drawn to the x axis The reference angle is the Positive angle made in the triangle closest to the origin ’ x ’

3 Find the reference angle
y Find the reference angle for 288 Draw 288 angle Draw triangle back to x axis Find reference angle x ’ ’ is what is left over from 360 360 – 288 = ’ = 72

4 Find the reference angle
y Find the reference angle for 98 Draw 98 angle Draw triangle back to x axis Find reference angle ’ x ’ is what is left over from 180 180 – 98 = ’ = 82

5 Find the reference angle
y Find the reference angle for -55 Draw -55 angle Draw triangle back to x axis Find reference angle x ’ ’ is what is the same as measured from zero but the positive angle |-55| = ’ = 55

6 Find the reference angle
y Find the reference angle for Draw angle Draw triangle back to x axis Find reference angle x ’ ’ is what is left over from 2

7 Find the reference angle
y Find the reference angle for Draw angle Draw triangle back to x axis Find reference angle ’ x ’ is the difference of  and 

8 Find the reference angle
y Find the reference angle for Draw angle Draw triangle back to x axis Find reference angle x ’ ’ is the difference of  and -

9 Find the Trig ratios of 315 without a calculator
y Find the reference angle for 315 ’ is what is what is left from 360 360 – 315 = ’ = 45 x ’ fourth quad Cos is positive, Sin and Tan are negative

10 Find the Trig ratios of 210 without a calculator
y Find the reference angle for 210 ’ is what is how much more than 180 210 – 180 = ’ = 30 x ’ Third quad Tan is positive, Sin and Cos are negative

11 Find the Trig ratios of without a calculator
y Find the reference angle for ’ is what is how much more than  x ’ Third quad Tan is positive, Sin and Cos are negative

12 Find the Trig ratios of without a calculator
y Find the reference angle for ’ is what is how much less than  x ’ second quad Sin is positive, Cos and Tan are negative

13 Rule for positive functions
y All Students Take Calculus A = all functions pos in Q I S = Sine and csc pos in Q II T = Tan and cot pos in Q III C = Cos and sec pos in Q IV A S T C x
