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.

Find the perimeter and the area of a sector of a circle whose radius is 45 inches
whose central angle is 50 degrees.
Solution
Given: 𝒓 = 𝟒𝟓 𝒊𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝜽 = 𝟓𝟎°
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
concept of direct proportions, we arrived at the following results.

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.
• 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°.
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°
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°
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.

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.

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.
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.

2. A nursery plants a new tree and attaches a guy wire to help support the tree

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.

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)?

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

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?
