UNIT III Trigonometry

Learning Competencies
At the end of the lesson, the learners are expected to:
 Illustrate the unit circle and the relationship between the linear and angular
measures of a central angle in a unit circle.

Warm Up

Definition:
An angle is formed by a ray l , called the initial side of the angle, around its
endpoint until it coincides with a ray m, called the terminal side of the angle. The
common endpoint V of l and m is called the vertex of the angle.

(Illustration of the definition)

A counterclockwise rotation produces a positive angle and a clockwise rotation


produces a negative angle. An angle in a rectangular coordinate system is said to be in
standard position if its vertex is at origin and the initial side is along the positive x-
axis. A quadrantal angle is an angle in standard position with terminal e in the x-
axis or y-axis. Two angles in standard position are coterminal is their sides coincide.
the reference angle for any angle in standard position is the positive acute angle
between side of the angle and the x-axis.

Relations among Arc Length, Central Angle and Radius of a Circle

(in a box)
If a central angle θ in a circle of radius r cuts-off an arc of lengths s, then measure of
θ in radian is given by ratio between s and r.

s s
If θ= , then s=θrand r =
r θ

s
θ ( ¿ radians )=
r

Example:

1. Find the length of an arc of a circle with radius of 10 m that subtends a central
angle of 30°.

Solution:

Convert 30° to radian,

π π
30°= radians then, θ= and r =10 m

2. A central angle θ in a circle of radius of 4 cm is subtended by an arc of length 6


cm. Find the measure of θ in radian.

Solution:

s=6 cmr =4 cm
s 6 cm 3
θ= = = radians
r 4 cm 2
