    Basic Trigonometry
    Chapter 4.2 Unit Circle
    Dr. Shim
    4.2 - Objectives
    • Evaluate trigonometric functions using the unit circle
    • Use the domain and period to evaluate sine and cosine functions
    • Learn how to take effective notes to communicate math.

    “It is the supreme art of the teacher


    to awaken joy in creative expression
    and knowledge.” ~Albert Einstein
    Periodic Behavior

    2𝜋𝜋 is the period of sine and cosine functions.


    Adding or subtracting multiples of 2𝜋𝜋 creates
    coterminal angles and their sine/cosine values
    are the same.
    Unit Circle
    Draw a 120° angle in standard position.
    Draw a −30° angle in standard position.

    Find one positive and one negative coterminal angles


    for 120°

    Convert 120° to radians.

    Practice
    Find the point (𝑥𝑥, 𝑦𝑦) on the unit circle that corresponds to the real number 𝑡𝑡 (arc length).

    7𝜋𝜋
    𝑡𝑡 =
    6

    Convert 7𝜋𝜋/6 to degrees.

    ____________________________
    Practice
    Evaluate the trig functions using its period as an aid. Note: Period of sine = 2𝜋𝜋

    Sketch the angle.


    13𝜋𝜋
    sin =
    4

    Evaluate with a calculator to 4 decimal places. Note: Watch degree and radian mode.
