Angles and Angular Measure Angles formed by a counterclockwise rotation are considered positive angles , and angles formed by a clockwise rotation are considered negative angles .
Degree Measure hich can be written a The measure of an angle is determined by the amount of rotation of the initial side. An angle formed by rotating the initial side counterclockwise exactly once until it coincides with itself (one complete revolution) is defined to have a measure of 360 degrees, w s 360°. = of a revolution
Angle Measures Angles are often classified according to their measure. ➢ ➢ ➢ ➢ 180 o angles are straight angles . 90 o angles are right angles . Angles that have a measure greater than o but less than 90 o are acute angles . Angles that have a measure greater than 90 o but less than 180 o are obtuse angles .
Angle Measures An angle superimposed in a Cartesian coordinate system is in standard position if its vertex is at the origin and its initial side is on the positive x- axis. Two positive angles are complementary angles if the sum of the measures of the angles is 90 o . Each angle is the complement of the other angle. Two positive angles are supplementary angles if the sum of the measures of the angles is 180 o . Each angle is the supplement of the other angle.
Radian Measure Another commonly used angle measurement is the radian . To define a radian, first consider a circle of radius r and two radii and . The angle formed by the two radii is a central angle . The portion of the circle between and is an arc of the circle. We say that arc subtends the angle . The length of arc is . One radian is the measure of the central angle subtended by an arc of length on a circle of radius .
Conversion Examples: Convert each angle in degrees to radians. 60 o b) 315 o c) - 150 o Convert each angle in radians to degrees. 1 radian
s= r ⋅ θ
What is the complementary angle to 37° ? An angle measures 112° . What is its supplementary angle? Two angles are supplementary . If one angle is 4 times the measure of the other, what are the measures of the two angles? If angle A and angle B are complementary , and the measure of angle A is (2x + 10)° and the measure of angle B is (x + 20)° , what is the value of x ? Two angles form a linear pair . If one angle measures 85° , what is the measure of the other angle, and are these angles complementary or supplementary?

Introduction Trigonometry Triangle Measurement When working with right triangles, it is convenient to refer to the side opposite an angle or the side adjacent to (next to) an angle.
The Six Trigonometric Functions Six ratios can be formed by using two lengths of the three sides of a right triangle. Each ratio defines a value of a trigonometric function of a given acute angle . The functions are sine (sin), cosine (cos), tangent (tan), cotangent (cot), secant (sec), and cosecant (csc).

Introduction Some applications require that a product of trigonometric functions be written as a sum or difference of these functions. Other applications require that the sum or difference of trigonometric functions be represented as a product of these functions. The product-to-sum identities are particularly useful in these types of problems.
Product-to-Sum Identities The 4 Sum-to-Product identities have corresponding Product-to-Sum identities:
