b. Quadrantal Angle is an angle in standard position having its terminal side on
an axis.
Examples: 00, 900, 1800, 2700, 3600, 6300, -900, -1800, -8100

c. Co-Terminal Angles are angles in standard position having a common


terminal side.

Lesson 2. Trigonometric Functions of Any Angle


Consider any angle θ in standard position generated by rotating line OP in the
counterclockwise direction. Let P(x,y) be a point on its terminal side. The distance of
OP from the origin is called a radius vector r, and it is always positive for all angles.

Where: r2 = x2 + y2

We define now the trigonometric functions of θ in any quadrant in terms of x, y


and r as follows:
y x y r r x
sin θ= cos θ= tanθ= cscθ= sec θ= cot θ=
r r x y x y

Example 1. Find the trigonometric functions of angle A in standard position whose


terminal side contains point (3,- 4).
Solution: From the coordinates of the point (3, -4) on the terminal side of A, we say that
A terminates in quadrant IV. Thus, x = 3, y = -4. We now compute for r.
r 2 = x2 + y2
r2 = 32 + (-4)2 = 9 + 16 = 25
r=5

Defining the trigonometric functions of A, we have:


−4 3 −4 5 5 3
sin A= cos A= tan A= csc A= sec A= cot A=
5 5 3 −4 3 −4

Example 2. Find the trigonometric functions of β, an angle in standard position whose


terminal side has point (-1, -√3).
Solution: The quadrant of angle β is III. With x = -1 and y = -√3, it follows that by
Pythagorean Theorem, r = 2.

Lesson 3. The Unit Circle


A unit circle is a circle of radius one unit having its center at the origin of the
rectangular coordinate system. Figure below shows a unit circle r = 1 cutting the axes at
points A, B, C and D with their corresponding coordinates.

Lesson 4. Trigonometric Functions of Quadrantal Angles


Substituting r = 1 to the formulas in Lesson 2, we obtain the definitions of the
trigonometric functions of quadrantal angle θ.

y 1 1 x
sin θ= y cos θ=x tanθ= cscθ= sec θ= cot θ=
x y x y

From the above definitions, we can derive the trigonometric functions of the quadrantal
angles as shown on the table below.
Trigonometric functions of θ 00 900 1800 2700 3600
sin 0 1 0 -1 0
cos 1 0 -1 0 1
tan 0 ∞ 0 ∞ 0
csc ∞ 1 ∞ -1 ∞
sec 1 ∞ -1 ∞ 1
cot ∞ 0 −∞ 0 ∞
The symbol ∞ , called infinity is not a number. It merely indicates that the value of the
fraction increases without limit as the denominator approaches zero.

sin (-θ) = - sin θ csc (-θ) = -csc θ
cos (-θ) = cos θ sec (-θ) = sec θ
tan (-θ) = -tan θ cot (-θ) = - cot θ

From the above definitions, it follows that:


sin (-450) = - sin 450 csc (-5400) = -csc 5400
cos (- π /3) = cos ( π /3 ¿ sec (-2 π ¿ = sec 2 π

tan (-600) = - tan 600 cot (-7 π /6 ¿ = - cot( )

Lesson 6. Reference Angle

Reference angle of θ is the acute angle θ1, that the terminal side of θ makes with
the positive or negative x-axis.
a. For 900 ¿ θ<360 °

REMINDER: If 00 ¿ θ<90 ° , then θ1 = θ.

b. For all θ>360 °∨θ< 0 °


Determine the angle between 00 and 3600 that is co-terminal with θ and then,
apply the summary given above. These co-terminal angles have the same reference
angle.
For example, -1200 and 2400 are co-terminal angles. They have a common
reference angle which is 600.

Example 1. Determine the reference angle of angle θ1 of the angles given below.
a. 650 b. 2900 c. -1500 d. 6000

Solution:
a. θ1 = θ = 650, since θ terminates in Q1.
b. θ is in QII and from the figure below, θ1 = 1800 – 1350 = 450

Lesson 7. Reduction Formula


Let θ be any angle and θ1 be its reference angle. Generally, θ can be written in
the form
θ = k ∙ 900 ±θ1
where: k = 0, 1, 2, 3, …

Reminders:
 If k is an even number, any trigonometric function of θ equals the same function
of θ1.
 If k is an odd number, any trigonometric function of θ equals the co-function of θ1.
 The ± sign to be affixed depends on the sign of the original function in the
quadrant where the original angle θ lies.

Example 1. Express each of the following functions in terms of a positive angle less
than 900.
a. cos 3100 b. csc (-2100)
Solution:
a. Method 1.
cos 3100 = cos 3 ∙ 900 + 400 where: k = 3 (odd), θ1 = 400
0 0
cos 310 = + sin 40

Note: cos 3100 is given a positive sign since the original function (cosine) of the given
angle (3100) is positive in QIV.
Method 2.
cos 3100 = cos 4 ∙ 900 - 500 where: k = 4 (even) θ1 = 500
cos 3100 = cos 500

Observe that cos 3100 = sin 400 = cos 500. Recall that sin 400 = cos 500 since 400 and
500 are complementary angles, thus, their co-functions are equal.

Thus, cos 3100 = +sin 400 = + cos 500 (answer)

b. Method 1:
csc (-2100) = csc –(2 ∙ 900 + 300) where: k = 2 (even) θ1 = 300
csc (-2100) = +csc 300

Example 2. Evaluate the following functions without using calculator. Use the reference
angle and recall the function values of the special acute angles 300, 450, and 600, or, use
reduction formula.
a. sin 2400 b. sec (-4200)
Solution:
We use the reduction formula to find the values of the given functions.
a. sin 2400 = sin (2∙ 900 + 600)
= sin 600
=-
√3
2
or

sin 2400 = sin (3 ∙ 900 + 600)


= -cos 300
=-
√3
2

b. sec (-4200) = sec –(4 ∙ 900 + 600) or sec (-4200) = sec -(5 ∙ 900 – 300)
= sec 600 = + csc 300
=+2 =+2
Note: In QIV, secant is positive.

Example 3. Express each of the following functions to a function of the acute angle θ by
using the reduction formula.
a. sin (2700 + θ) b. cot (6300 – θ)

Solution:
a. sin (2700 + θ) = sin (3 ∙ 900 + θ) = - cos θ
We use cosine since k is an odd number, and negative sign is taken because the
given function, sine, in the QIV of the given angle (2700 + θ), is negative.

b. cot (6300 – θ) = cot (7 ∙ 900 – θ) = + tan θ


Since k is odd number, we use the co-function, tangent, of the angle θ. The
positive sign is taken in as much that the given function, cotangent, is positive in QIII
of given angle (6300 – θ).

Example 4. Express the function of acute angle θ and simplify the result.
sin ( 90°+θ ) ∙ sec (360 °−θ)
a.
cos ( 540 °−θ ) ∙ tan(−180 °−θ)

Solution: Using the reduction formula, we express the given functions as function of
acute angle θ.
