ANGLES AND ANGLE MEASUREMENT


Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics concerned with the lengths of the sides
and size of the angles of triangles.
• An angle is determined by rotating a ray about its endpoint.
• The starting position of the ray is called the initial side of the angle.
• The ending position of the ray is called the terminal side.
• The endpoint of the ray is called its vertex.
• Positive angles are generated by counterclockwise rotation.
• Negative angles are generated by clockwise rotation.

Conversions of Degrees and Radians

Degree Measure is the measure of an angle determined by the amount of rotation


from the initial side to the terminal side. The most common unit of angle measure is
the degree, denoted by the symbol (°). A measure of one degree (1 °) is equivalent to
1
a rotation of of a complete revolution about the vertex.
360°

To measure angles, we use degrees, minutes, seconds, and radians.

A central angle of a circle measures one-degree, written 1°, if it intercepts


1/360 of the circumference of the circle. One minute, written 1’, is
1/60 of 1°, while one second, written 1”, is 1/60 of 1’.

For example, in degrees, minutes, and seconds.


10030’18’ = 100(30 + 18/60)’
= 10030.3’
= (10 + 30.3/60)0
= 10.5050

A central angle of the unit circle that intercepts an arc of


the circle with length 1 unit is said to have a measure of
one radian, written 1 rad. See Figure 1.

Figure 1
Radian Measure is the type of angle measure particularly used in calculus. To define
a radian, you can use a central angle of a circle, whose vertex is the center of the
circle.
• One radian is the measure of a central angle 𝜃 that intercepts the arc s equal
in length to the radius r of the circle.

We can say that for a central angle of 360°, the sector’s arc length is equal to the
perimeter of the circle and its area is equal to the area of the circle. So, using the

ACTIVITY SHEET IN PRECALCULUS


GRADE 11
1st Quarter, Week 2- (Illustrates the angle in standard position and coterminal
angle. STEM_PC11T-IIa-3 )

NAME: __________________________________ SCHOOL: ________________________

ANGLE IN STANDARD POSITION


An angle is said to be in standard position when it is drawn in a Cartesian
coordinate system in such a way that its vertex is at the origin and its initial side is
the positive x-axis.

Example 1.
Tell whether the angle is in standard position or not.

(𝒂. ) (𝒃. ) (𝒄. )

Answers:
(𝒂. ) Because the vertex is at the origin and its initial side is the positive x-axis,
then, the angle is in standard position.
(𝒃. ) Because the vertex is not located at the origin, so, the angle is not in standard
position.
(𝒄. ) Because the vertex is at the origin and its initial side is the positive x-axis,
then, the angle is in standard position.

COTERMINAL ANGLES
Coterminal angles are angles in standard position which have the same terminal
side.
Example 2.
Describe how each pair of angles are coterminal angles.

Figure 2 shows that 30° is coterminal with


390° because they have the same terminal
side, both of which are first- quadrant
angles. For the positive angle 390 °,
subtract 360 ° to obtain a coterminal
angle.
390 ° - 360 ° = 30 °

SCHOOLS DIVISION OFFICE OF BALANGA CITY

Figure 3 shows that 135° is coterminal


with -225° because they have the same
terminal side, both of which are second-
quadrant angles. For the positive angle
135 °, subtract 360 ° to obtain a
coterminal angles.
135 ° - 360 ° = - 225 ° 390 ° - 360 ° = 30
°

Figure 3

Figure 4 shows that 240° is coterminal


with -120° because they have the same
terminal side, both of which are third-
quadrant angles. For the negative angle
- 120 °, add 360 ° to obtain a conterminal
angle.
- 120 ° + 360 ° = 240 °

Figure 4

• You can find an angle that is coterminal to a given angle 𝜃 by adding or


subtracting 360 ° (one revolution).
• If the angle is positive, keep subtracting 360 from it until the result is
between 0 and +360.
• If the angle is negative, keep adding 360 until the result is between 0 and
+360. A given angle 𝜃 has infinitely many coterminal angles, thus

θ + n (360 °) where n is an integer.

IIb-1; 2. Uses reference angle to find the exact values of six trigonometric functions.
STEM_PC11T-IIb-2)

REFERENCE ANGLES

For any angle 𝜃 in standard position, its reference angle 𝜃𝑟 is the acute angle formed
by the terminal side of 𝜃 and the positive or negative x- axis.

Example 1. Finding Reference Angle in Quadrant I

Find the reference angle whose 𝜃 = 60°.

• When 𝜃 falls in the first quadrant, the reference angle is equal to the given
angle, or
𝜽𝒓 = 𝜽
Example 2. Finding Reference Angle in Quadrant II
Find the reference angle whose 𝜃 = 120°.

Solution
Because 120° lies in Quadrant II and
it’s between 0° and 360°, subtract 120°
from 180° to obtain the reference angle.
𝜽𝒓 = 𝟏𝟖𝟎° − 𝟏𝟐𝟎° = 𝟔𝟎°

• When 𝜃 falls in the second quadrant, the reference angle is the supplement
to the given angle, or
𝜽𝒓 = 𝟏𝟖𝟎° − 𝜽
Example 3. Finding Reference Angle in Quadrant III
Find the reference angle whose 𝜃 = 240°.

SCHOOLS DIVISION OFFICE OF BALANGA CITY

Solution
Because 240° lies in Quadrant III
and it’s between 0° and 360°,
subtract 180° from 240° to obtain
the reference angle.
𝜽𝒓 = 𝟐𝟒𝟎° − 𝟏𝟖𝟎° = 𝟔𝟎°

• When 𝜃 falls in the third quadrant, the reference angle is


𝜽𝒓 = 𝜽 − 𝟏𝟖𝟎°

Example 4. Finding Reference Angle in Quadrant IV


Find the reference angle whose 𝜃 = 300°.

Solution
Because 300° lies in Quadrant IV and it’s
between 0° and 360°, subtract 300° from 360° to
obtain the reference angle. Thus,
𝜃𝑟 = 60°.
𝜽𝒓 = 𝟑𝟔𝟎° − 𝟑𝟎𝟎° = 𝟔𝟎°

• When 𝜃 falls in the fourth quadrant, the reference angle is


𝜽𝒓 = 𝟑𝟔𝟎° − 𝜽

The Coordinates of the Unit Circle

• The terminal point of an angle 𝜃 is the


intersection of terminal side of 𝜃 and the unit
circle.
• Considering Figure 1, the following are
examples of the coordinates of the terminal
point of an angle in the intersection of terminal
side of 𝜃 and the unit circle, P (𝜃).

𝑷(𝟎°) = (𝟏, 𝟎) ; 𝑷(𝟗𝟎°) = (𝟎, 𝟏); 𝑷(𝟏𝟖𝟎°)𝟎 = (−𝟏, 𝟎) ; 𝑷(𝟐𝟕𝟎°) = (𝟎, −𝟏)

For special values of angle 𝜃 , the coordinates of a point can be determined from the
theorems of the 45°-45°-90° triangle and the 30°-60°-90° triangle.

√2 √2
• The coordinates of a unit circle whose reference angle is 45° are (± , ± ).

GRADE 11
1st Quarter, Week 4- (1. Illustrates the domain and range of the different circular
functions STEM_PC11T-IIc-1; 2. Graphs the six circular functions (a) amplitude, (b)
period, and (c) phase unit. STEM_PC11T-IId-1)

The Sine Curve

Recall that, for a real number x, sin𝑥 = sin𝜃 for an angle 𝜃 with measure x radians,
and that sin 𝜃 is the second coordinate of the point P(𝜃) on the unit circle. Since each
x corresponds to an angle 𝜃, we can conclude that,

(1) sin x is defined for any real number x or the domain of the sine function is ℝ, and
(2) the range of sine is the set of all real numbers between −1 and 1 (inclusive).
From the definition, it also follows that sin(x+2𝜋) = sin𝑥 for any real number x. This
means that the values of the sine function repeat every 2𝜋 units. In this case, we say
that the sine function is a periodic function with period 2𝜋.

Example 1. Sketch the graph of the function 𝑦 = sin 𝑥 and describe the
graph.

Solution
• For the sine function 𝑦 = sin 𝑥; prepare the table of values for the ordered
pair (𝑥, sin 𝑥) where 𝑥 will both be in degrees and radians.
• To simplify, use the quadrantal angles in between.
• Plot the ordered pairs on the Cartesian plane. See the graph of 𝑦 = sin 𝑥 in Figure 1.

ACTIVITY SHEET IN PRECALCULUS


GRADE 11
1st Quarter, Week 5- (1. Solves situational problems involving circular functions.
STEM_PC11T-IId-2)

Periodic motions are usually modeled by either sine or cosine function, and are
called simple harmonic motions. Unimpeded movements of objects like oscillation,
vibration, rotation, and motion due to water waves are real-life occurrences
that behave in simple harmonic motion.

Equations of Simple Harmonic Motion


The displacement y (directed height or length) of an object behaving in a simple
harmonic motion with respect to time t is given by one of the following equations:
y = a sin b(t − c) + d or y = a cos b(t − c) + d.
In both equations, we have the following information:
✓ amplitude = |a| = 1/2 (M − m) - the maximum displacement above and
below the rest position or central position or equilibrium, where M is the
maximum height and m is the minimum height;
2𝜋
✓ period = - the time required to complete one cycle (from one highest or
|𝑏|
lowest point to the next);
|b|
✓ frequency = - the number of cycles per unit of time;
2𝜋
✓ c - responsible for the horizontal shift in time; and
✓ d - responsible for the vertical shift in displacement.

Let us now take a look at some situational problems on circular functions.

Example 1. A weight is suspended from a spring and is moving up and down in a


simple harmonic motion. At start, the weight is pulled down 5 cm below
the resting position, and then released. After 8 seconds, the weight reaches its
highest location for the first time. Find the equation of the motion.

Solution. We are given that the weight is located at its lowest position at t = 0;
that is, y = −5 when t = 0. Therefore, the equation is y = −5 cos bt.
Because it took the weight 8 seconds from the lowest point to its immediate highest
point, half the period is 8 seconds.

Example 2. Suppose you ride a Ferris wheel. The lowest point of the wheel is 3
meters off the ground, and its diameter is 20 m. After it started, the Ferris wheel

revolves at a constant speed, and it takes 32 seconds to bring you back again to the
riding point. After riding for 150 seconds, find your approximate height above the
ground.
Solution.

We ignore first the fixed value of 3 m off the ground, and assume that
the central position passes through the center of the wheel and is parallel to the
ground.
Let t be the time (in seconds) elapsed that you have been riding the Ferris wheel, and
y is he directed distance of your location with respect to the assumed central position
at time t.
Because y = −10 when t = 0, the appropriate model is
y = −10 cos bt for t ≥ 0.
Given that the Ferris wheel takes 32 seconds to move from the lowest point to the
next, the period is 32.
𝟐𝝅 𝝅 𝝅𝒕
= 𝟑𝟐 𝒃= y = −5 cos
𝒃 𝟏𝟔 𝟏𝟔

𝝅
✓ When t = 150, we get y = 10cos𝟏𝟔 15016 ≈ 3.83.
Bringing back the original condition given in the problem that the riding point
is 3 m off the ground, after riding for 150 seconds, you are approximately
located 3.83 + 13 = 16.83 m off the ground.

In the last example, the central position or equilibrium may be vertically


shifted from the ground or sea level (the role of the constant d). In the same
way, the starting point may also be horizontally shifted (the role of the
constant c). We can either choose
y = a sin b(t − c) + d or y = a cos b(t − c) + d,
and determine the appropriate values of a, b, c, and d. In fact, we can assume
that a and b are positive numbers, and c is the smallest such nonnegative
number.

Activity

Solve each of the following problems.

1. Iyah is playing Hula-Hoop. Assume that Iyah is the central angle 𝜃 inside the
Hula-Hoop having a measurement of 13 radians. If the radius fumed starting
Anna to the tip of her Hula-Hoop is 8cm, find the length of the arc that
subtends 𝜃.

2. A nursery plants a new tree and attaches a guy wire to help support the tree
while its roots take hold. An eight-foot wire is attached to the tree and to a
stake in the ground. From the stake in the ground the angle of elevation of the
connection with the tree is 42º. Find to the nearest tenth of a foot, the height
of the connection point on the tree.

an angle of depression of 40º. If the tower is 45 feet in height, how far is the

4. A variable star is a star whose brightness fluctuates as observed from Earth.


The magnitude of visual brightness of one variable star ranges from 2.0 to
10.1, and it takes 332 days to observe one maximum brightness to the next.
Assuming that the visual brightness of the star can be modeled by the
equation y = a sin b(t − c) + d, t in days, and putting t = 0 at a time when the
star is at its maximum brightness, find the constants a, b, c, and d, where a,
b > 0 and c the least nonnegative number possible.

5. The path of a fast-moving particle traces a circle with equation


(x + 7)2 + (y − 5)2 = 36. It starts at point (−1, 5), moves clockwise, and passes

the particle after traveling 15 microseconds?

GRADE 11
1st Quarter, Week 6- (1. Determines whether an equation is an identity or a
conditional equation.STEM_PC11T-IIe-1; 2. Applies trigonometric identities to find
other trigonometric values. STEM_PC11T-IIg-1)

IDENTITY AND CONDITIONAL EQUATION


In algebra, you study about equations and expressions. An expression is composed
of variables and constant terms connected together with the help of operators. On
the other hand, equation is a mathematical description which is equal only for one
variable.

Identity
An equation that is satisfied by every real number for which both sides are defined
is called an identity.
• It is easy to find equation that are satisfied by any real number that you
choose any replacement for the variable. For example, the equations
𝟏
𝒙 ÷𝟐 = 𝒙 , 𝒙 + 𝒙 = 𝟐𝒙 , 𝒙 + 𝟏 = 𝒙 + 𝟏 are satisfied by all real numbers.
𝟐

Conditional Equations
A conditional equation is an equation that is satisfied by at least one real number,
but it is not an identity.
• The equation 3𝑥 + 7 = 16 is true only for the condition that you replace 𝑥 by
3. The equation 𝑥 2 = 25 is true only for the values of 𝑥 = ±5. These equations
are called conditional equations.

Example 1. Identifying Identity and Conditional Equation


Identify whether the given equation is an identity or a conditional equation.

Solution
𝑥2 1
(𝑎. ) 1 + 𝑥 + =

• This is an identity because simplifying the left-hand side of the equation
will give you the result equivalent to the right-hand side of the equation.

• This is a conditional equation. If 𝜃 = 0, then the left-hand side of the
equation is 0, while the right-hand side is 2.
𝑠𝑖𝑛2 𝜃 = 𝑐𝑜𝑠 2 𝜃 + 1
(𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃)(𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃) = (𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃)(𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃) + 1

(𝑐. ) sin 𝜃 = cos 𝜃 − 1
• This is also a conditional equation. If 𝜃= 0, then both sides of the equation
are equal to 0. But if 𝜃 = 𝜋, then the left-hand side of the equation is 0,while
the right-hand side is −2.

If 𝜃= 0 But if 𝜃 = 𝜋,
(𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃) = (𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃) − 1 (𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃) = (𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃) − 1
(sin 0) = (cos 0) − 1 (sin 𝜋) = (cos 𝜋) − 1
(0) = 1 − 1 (0) = −1 − 1
0=0 0 ≠ −2

(𝑑. )𝑥 2 − 9 = (𝑥 + 3)(𝑥 − 3)

Solve the problems.
1. The dual tone multi-frequency is the signal information used in touch-tone
phones to identify which digit you touched on the keypad. It works by adding
a pair of sounds, one with a lower frequency and one with a higher frequency.
Refer to the chart below. For example, the sound created by touching 6 is
produced by adding a 770-hertz sound to a 1477-hertz sound. (Note that
“hertz” is a unit of frequency and is equal to 1 cycle per second.) This sound
is modeled by the equation
s(t) = sin(2𝜋 · 770t) + sin(2𝜋 · 1477t),where t is time in seconds.

(a) Write the equation of the sound created by touching the * (asterisk) key
as a product of sine and cosine functions.
(b) In (a), what is the maximum value of s(t)?

SOLVING TRIGONOMETRIC EQUATIONS

Any equation that includes trigonometric expressions is called


𝒕𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒐𝒏𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒕𝒓𝒊𝒄 𝒆𝒒𝒖𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏.
Solving trigonometric equation is similar to solving algebraic equation. You may use
your knowledge gained in finding the reference angles in a unit circle along with the
fundamental identities.
Example 5. Find all possible value/s of x over

the interval 0° ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 360°.


√3 √3 √3
a. sin 𝑥 =− 𝑥 = {240° 𝑎𝑛𝑑 300°}, because sin240° =− 𝑎𝑛𝑑 sin300° = − .
2 2 2

b. cos 𝑥 = 𝑥 = {60° 𝑎𝑛𝑑 300°}, because sin60° =− 𝑎𝑛𝑑 sin300° = .
2 2 2
√2 √2 √2
c. sin 𝑥 = 𝑥 = {45° 𝑎𝑛𝑑 135°}, because sin45° = 𝑎𝑛𝑑 sin135° = .
2 2 2

The previous example will be very useful to solve trigonometric equation from
simple to advanced trigonometric equations. Consider some tips in solving
trigonometric equation.

Example 6. Solving Trigonometric Equation


Solve 𝑠𝑖𝑛(𝜃) + 2 = 3 over the interval 0° ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 360°.
Solution
𝑠𝑖𝑛(𝜃) + 2 = 3 Isolate the sine term.
𝑠𝑖𝑛(𝜃) + 2 − 2 = 3 − 2 Addition Property of Equality
sin(𝜃) = 1
𝜃 = 𝑠𝑖𝑛−1 1
𝜃 = 90°
Because 𝒔𝒊𝒏(𝜽) is simply defined as the y-coordinate of a trigonometric point, the
y- coordinate of a point in a unit circle has only one value at 90 0. P (900) = (0,1)
Thus, the value of the angle 𝛉 is 𝟗𝟎° for sin𝟗𝟎° = 𝟏. (See Figure 11.1.1)

Example 7. Equation with Two or More Terms


Solve 2 cos 𝑥 𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑥 = 2 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥 on the interval 0° ≤ 𝜃 < 360°.
Solution 2 cos 𝑥 𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑥 = 2 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥 Write the given.
2 cos 𝑥 𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑥 − 2 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥 = 0 Equate to 0 using Addition Property.
2 cos 𝑥 (𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑥 − 1) = 0 Factor

2 cos 𝑥 = 0 tan 𝑥 − 1 = 0
cos 𝑥 = 0 tan 𝑥 = 1
Solutions: { 90°, 270°} Solutions: { 45°, 225°}

Thus, the general solution is


𝒙 = 𝟒𝟓°, 𝒙 = 𝟗𝟎°, 𝒙 = 𝟐𝟐𝟓°, 𝒙 = 𝟐𝟕𝟎°

Let us now take a look at some situational problems involving inverse trigonometric
functions and trigonometric equations.

Example 1. The voltage V (in volts) coming from an electricity distributing


company is fluctuating according to the function
V(t)=200+170sin(120𝜋t) at time t in seconds.
a. Determine the first time it takes to reach 300 volts.
b. For what values of t does the voltage reach its maximum value?
Solution
a. Solve for at least positive value of t such that V(t)=300.

b. The maximum value of V(t) happens when and only when the maximum value of
sin(120𝜋t) is reached. We know that the maximum value of sin(120𝜋t) is 1, and it
follows that the maximum value of V(t) is 370 volts. Thus, we need to solve for all
values of t such that sin(120𝜋t) = 1.

sin(120𝜋t) = 1

Example 2. A student is viewing a painting in a


museum. Standing 6 ft from the painting, the eye level
of the student is 5 ft above the ground. If the painting
is 10 ft tall and its base is 4 ft above the ground, find
the viewing angle subtended by the
painting at the eyes of the student.

1. A weight is suspended from a spring and vibrating vertically according to the
equation f(t) = 25.2 sin(3.8t − 2.1),where f(t) centimeters is the directed distance of
the weight from its central position at t seconds, and the positive distance means
above its central position. Find the times when the weight is at its central position.
2. A movie screen 10 feet high is fixed on a wall so that its base is 4 feet above the
eye level of a viewer. (See Figure on the next page.) Suppose that the movie viewer
is x feet from the wall, and 𝜃 is the radian measure of the angle subtended by the
movie screen of the viewer’s eye. Write 𝜃 in terms of x and simplify.

3. After many years in business, the financial analyst of a shoe company projected
that the monthly costs of producing their products and monthly revenues from
the sales of their products are fluctuating according to the following formulas:
C(t) = 2.6 + 0.58 sin(0.52t − 7.25)
and
R(t) = 2.6 + 1.82 cos(0.52t − 7.25),
where C(t) and R(t) are the costs and revenues in millions of pesos at month t
(t = 0 represents January 2010). About how many months after January 2010
did the company experience a zero profit for the first time?
