1. Trigonometric Functions of an Acute angle Engr. Rean Navarra

2. Trigonometric functions on an acute angle  Let be an acute angle in standard position in a rectangular coordinate system, and let P(x,y) be any point other than the point O on the terminal side of.  Drop a vertical line from P(x,y) to the x-axis at Q(x,0). Y r x O P(x,y) Q(x,0) X

3. …Definition Y r x O P(x,y) Q(x,0) X

4. x r y P(x,y)

5. Definition  Let be an acute angle in standard position in a rectangular coordinate system, and let P(x,y) be any point other than the point O on the terminal side of.  If d (O, P) =then ….

6. Trigonometric functions of an any angle tan and sec are undefined if x = 0 csc and cot are zero if y = 0

7. Notes…  The trigonometric formulas does not depend on the point P(x, y) that is chosen on the terminal of.  The fundamental identities are true for trigonometric functions of any angle.

8. …Notes  The domains of trigonometric functions consists of all angles for which the functions is defined (where zero denominators does not occur).

9. …because the denominator r > 0 for any angle.

10. The tangent and secant are undefined if x = 0 ( if the terminal side of the angle is on y – axis).

11. The cotangent and cosecant are undefined if y = 0 ( if the terminal side of the angle is on x – axis).

18. Example: Finding trigonometric functions of angles a.cos 135˚ b.cos 390˚

19. Reference Angle  The reference angle associated with is the acute angle formed by the terminal side of and the x- axis.

20. Reference Angles: = = 180° - = - 180° = 360° -

21. Example: Find the reference Angles a. Θ = 5π/3 b. Θ= 870° Ans. a. 30° b. 20°

22. Evaluating Trigonometric Functions for any angle  Find the reference angle associated with the angle.  Determine the sign of the trigonometric function of by the quadrant in which lies.  The value of trigonometric function of is the same, except possibly for sign, as the value of the trigonometric function.

23. Example: Using the reference Angle to evaluate trigonometric functions.  Find sin 240°  Find cot 495°  Sin 16π/3  Sec (-π/4)

24. Example: Using the reference Angle to evaluate trigonometric functions.  If tan θ = 2/3 and θ is in Q-III, find cos θ.  If sec θ = 2 and θ is in Q-IV, find the other five trigonometric functions of θ.
