Trigonometric Functions
Target 5.1, Day 1
DEGREES AND RADIANS (S6.1)

An angle is said to be in standard

position if its initial side lies on the
positive ______________, and its vertex
is at the ___________.

A positive angle tells you to rotate the

terminal side of the angle
_____________________. A negative angle
tells you to rotate ____________________.
Sketch the indicated angle in
standard position. Then state which
quadrant (or axis) it lies in (or on).
a) 240o

d) 1080o

b) 500o

e) -190o

c) -50o

Sketch the indicated angle in standard position.

a) 150o
b) -210o

These two angles are said to be coterminal (since they share a

terminal side). To nd coterminal angles, simply add or subtract a
multiple of __________.

Find one positive and one negative coterminal angle for each angle.

a) -45

Radians are another way (as opposed to degrees) to measure an

angle. Radians are used frequently in trig.
One radian is the measure of an angle whose terminal side
intercepts an arc of length r.
If you go all the way around the circle,
how many radians would you have? In
other words, whats the circumference?

Thus, 360o is equal to ______ radians,

and 180o is equal to _____ radians.

We will use the fact that 180o = ________ radians to convert angles
back and forth. At rst, it may be easier to always convert radians
to degrees (since degrees are much more familiar), but you should
start to get used to (i.e. memorize) the important radian
measures.
Convert to radians.
300o
540o

Convert to degrees.

Find one positive and one negative angle that is coterminal with
the given angle. (Instead of adding or subtracting multiples of 360o,
add or subtract multiples of ______ when working with radians).

ARC LENGTH AND AREA OF
SECTORS (S6.1)

Remember arc lengths and areas of sectors from geometry? We can

use _______________ to quickly calculate these values.

Arc Length = ________________

Sector Area = _____________________

*Note: Your angle must be measured in radians!

Find the arc length and the area of the sector with the given central
angle.

A softball eld forms a sector with the dimensions shown. Find the
length of the outeld fence and the area of the eld.

Latitude tells you how many degrees north or south of the equator
that you are. When two cities are directly north/south of each
other, we can use latitudes (along with the radius of Earth) to
determine arc lengths and distances between the cities.

The radius of Earth is approximately

3960 miles.

The city of Glasgow, Montana is due north of Albuquerque, New

Mexico. The latitudes of the two cities are 48.15oN and 35.08oN,
respectively. How far apart are the cities?
