1 Unit - Radian and Degree Measure Classwork Definitions to know: Trigonometry triangle measurement Initial side, terminal side - starting and ending Position of the ray Standard position origin if the vertex, initial side is the positive x-axis Angle: rotating a ray about its endpoint Vertex endpoint of the ray Positive, negative angles positive is counterclockwise rotation, negative axis clockwise rotation Co-terminal angles angles having the same initial and terminal sides Measurement of angles: Degrees: 60 degrees make up one circle. Radians: one radian is the central angle formed by laying the radius of the circle onto the circumference. There are π radians in one circle. Revolutions: a full rotation of a circle.

Arc length formula: s r" where r is measured in linear units, " is measured in radians, and s is measured in linear units Example : Find the arc length of the arc with radius inches and " 60 " & s in( 60 )% (.9 in. $ 60 ' Note: since the angle is measured in radians, it technically has no units so s is measured in linear units. Example : If the arc length is 6 inches and the radius is inches, find the central angle in degrees " s r 6 in in $ 60 ' & ) 7.7 % ( Example 5: If the arc length is meters and the central angle is 5, find the radius of the circle. r s " m $ 60 ' & ) 0.97 meters 5 % (.

Miami, Florida is at latitude 5 7 " 9 " N while Erie, Pennsylvania is at 7 " 5 " N and the cities are on the same meridian (one city lies due north of each other). Find the distance between the cities. " & s 000 m( 6.5 )% ( 0. miles $ 60 ' Imagine an object traveling along a circular arc. The element of time is now added to the equation. In order to do problems in such situations, we need to identify variables that can express certain information. Important variables for problems in which an object is moving along a circular arc Variable Name Given in Use in formulas Sample measures r Radius Linear units linear units inches,.5 feet radian " (theta) Angle Degrees, radians, revs Radians 5,.5!

4 The Angular velocity linear velocity formula: When an object is traveling along an arc, it has both an angular velocity and a linear velocity. The formula that ties these two variables together is: v "r or " v r " is always measured in radians time Examples 9: a. A bicycle s wheel has a 0 inch diameter. If the wheel makes.5 revolutions per ond, find the speed of the bike in mph. v "r.5 rev 5 in $ rev ft in mile 50 ft 600 hr.0 mph b.
