Six Trigonometric Functions of t
The sine function associates with t the y-coordinate of P and is denoted by
sin t = y
The cosine function associates with t the x-coordinate of P and is denoted by
cos t = x

Six Trigonometric Functions of the Angle θ
If θ = t radians, the functions are defined as: sin θ = sin t csc θ = csc t cos θ = cos t sec θ = sec t tan θ = tan t cot θ = cot t

Finding the Exact Values of the 6 Trig Functions of Quadrant Angles
Unit Circle – radius = 1 Quadrant Angles: 0, 90, 180, 270, 360 degrees 0, π/2, π, 3π/2, 2π Point names at each angle: (1, 0) (0, 1) (-1, 0) (0, -1)

Circular Functions
A circle has no beginning or ending. Angles on a circle therefore have many names because you can continue to go around the circle.
Positive Angles Negative Angles

Finding Exact Values
Reminder of how to use your hand to find the value of a trig function for 0, 30, 45, 60, or 90 degree reference angles
Reminder of how to use your hand to find the value of a trig function for 0, pi sixths, pi fourths, pi thirds and pi halves reference angles.

Finding Exact Values
Angles in Radians: 1. Determine reference angle 2. Change fraction to mixed numeral 3. Determine quadrant 4. Determine value using hand 5. Determine whether value is positive or
negative in that quadrant (All Scientists Take Calculus)

Finding Exact Values - Degrees
If Angle is in degrees we will need to determine our reference angle first by using the following rules:
If the angle is in the first quadrant – it is a reference angle
If the angle is in the second quadrant – subtract the angle from 180.

Finding Exact Values - Degrees
If the angle is in the third quadrant – subtract 180 from the angle
If the angle is in the fourth quadrant – subtract the angle from 360

Finding Exact Values - Degrees
(1) Determine whether value is positive or negative from the quadrant
(2) Find reference angle – using preceding rules
(3) Determine value of function using hand

Using Calculator to Approximate Value
If angle is not one that uses one of the given reference angles, calculator will be used to approximate the value.
This value is not exact as the previous values have been
Be careful that calculator is in correct mode.

Using a Circle of Radius R
To find the trig values given a point NOT ON THE UNIT CIRCLE
Be sure to read the directions before finding the six trig functions.

Applications – Projectile Motion
The path of a projectile fired at an inclination θ to the horizontal with initial speed v0 is a parabola. The range of the projectile, that is the horizontal distance that the projectile travels, is found by using the formula
