2 Angle Units:
1. Degree (°)
2. Radian (rad)
LESSON 2 Q3: -90 - -180 degrees; -0.25 - -0.50
Q4: 0 - -90 degrees; 0 - -0.25
A quadrantal angle is an angle in standard
position whose terminal side lies on either Locate the terminal side of the following
x-axis or y-axis. angles:
1. 150° Q2
2. -283° Q1
3. 615° Q3
solution: 615÷360=5.61
Since, the decimal part is 0.61 and is
between 0.5 and 0.75, the terminal
side of the angle lies in Q3

COUNTER–CLOCKWISE ROTATION
Q1: 0 - 90 degrees; 0-0.25
Q2: 90 - 180 degrees; 0.25-0.50
Q3: 180 - 270 degrees; 0.50-0.75
Q4: 270 - 360 degrees; 0.75-1
CLOCKWISE ROTATION
Q1: -270 - -360 degrees; -0.75 - -1
Q2: -180 - -270 degrees; -0.50 - -0.75
LESSON 4
Reference Angle
- The smallest acute angle that the
terminal side of a given angle makes
with the x-axis. Regardless of which
quadrant we are in, the reference
angle is always made positive. It is
always less than or equal to 90°,
even for very large angles.
- The concept of a reference angle is
often used in trigonometry to simplify
calculations and solve problems
involving angles. In real-life
situations, when designing
structures, engineers often need to
calculate angles for inclined planes,
ramps, or supports. The reference
angle can help simplify calculations
and make them more manageable.

closest to 180° or 360° and by how much.
Step 3: The angle from step 2 is the
reference angle of the given angle
LESSON 5 Note: Kapag ang hahanapin ay negative,
ang answer ay yung nasa katapat na
Circular Functions quadrant. Halimbawa, -240° and nasa
quadrant 3 siya, ang magiging value ng
coordinates niya ay yung katapat niya na
same lang yung denominator sa radian
value. GETS BA GUYS? KAYA NIYO ‘YAN!
