LESSON 1

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics


that deals with the study of triangles.

Hipparchus is considered to be the father


of trigonometry. He was a Greek
astronomer who lived between 190-120 BC.

Angles in Standard Position


Having knowledge about angles is one of
the required skills in being a pilot. They use
it to plan their routes and to maintain their
airplane on course. They read directional
compasses and calculate how many
degrees to turn their aircraft during flight.
This allows them to angle the aircraft
towards its destination.

A Unit Circle is a circle with center at the


origin and with radius of 1 unit.

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

Note: You may apply division whenever the


given value is more than 360. To get the
answer or the correct quadrant, you just
need to check the decimal for you to
determine its quadrant.

LESSON 3

Two angles in standard position that have


common terminal sides are called
coterminal angles

The degree measure of coterminal angles


differ by multiples of 360°

The terminal side of an angle in standard


position may be rotated more than 1
revolution. This makes the generated
angles measures limitless. The terminal
side’s location may end up either on an axis
or in a quadrant of Cartesian Plane.

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.

involving angles. In real-life
Step 1: Find the coterminal angle of the

structures, engineers often need to
Step 2: If the angle from step 1 lies
calculate angles for inclined planes,
between 0° and 90°,then that angle itself is

the reference angle of the given angle. If
angle can help simplify calculations
not, then we have to check whether it is
and make them
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!
