Study Notes
Trigonometric Functions and Their Properties
- Amplitude for sin/cos: Defined as the absolute value of the coefficient before the sine or cosine function.
- Amplitude for tan: Tan does not have an amplitude.
- Period for sin/cos: Calculated as 360 degrees divided by the absolute value of the coefficient after sine or cosine.
- Period for tan: Found by dividing 180 degrees by the absolute value of the coefficient after tan.
- Phase shifts: The movement of the graph left or right, where addition indicates a left shift and subtraction indicates a right shift.
- Vertical shifts: Movement of the graph up or down outside of parentheses, where addition indicates an upward shift and subtraction indicates a downward shift.
- Midline: The baseline for the sine and cosine functions, typically at 0 unless a vertical shift is applied.
Graph Characteristics
- Cosine graphs: Characterized by their single curve and beginning above the origin.
- Sine graphs: Exhibit two curves forming an "S" shape, starting at the origin (0).
Angle Concepts
- Reference angle: The acute angle formed between the terminal side of the angle and the x-axis.
-
Quadrants:
- Q1: Represents the angle itself.
- Q2: Calculated as 180 degrees minus the angle.
- Q3: Derived by subtracting 180 degrees from the angle value.
- Q4: Calculated as 360 degrees minus the angle.
Coterminal Angles and Angle Conversion
- Finding coterminal angles: Generate coterminal angles by adding or subtracting 360 degrees.
- Converting angles to radians: Multiply the angle in degrees by π/180.
- Converting radians to angles: Multiply the angle in radians by 180/π.
Fundamental Identities
- Pythagorean Identity: ( \cos^2 x + \sin^2 x = 1 ).
- Csc and cot identities: ( \cot^2 x + 1 = \csc^2 x ).
- Secant identity: ( \tan^2 x + 1 = \sec^2 x ).
Trigonometric Ratios
-
Reciprocal relationships:
- Cosecant (csc): ( \csc x = \frac{1}{\sin x} ).
- Secant (sec): ( \sec x = \frac{1}{\cos x} ).
- Cotangent (cot): ( \cot x = \frac{1}{\tan x} ).
-
Basic ratio definitions:
- Tangent (tan): ( \tan x = \frac{\sin x}{\cos x} ).
- Cotangent (cot): ( \cot x = \frac{\cos x}{\sin x} ).
- Sine (sin): ( \sin x = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}} ).
- Cosine (cos): ( \cos x = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}} ).
- Tangent (tan): ( \tan x = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}} ).
- Cosecant (csc): ( \csc x = \frac{\text{hypotenuse}}{\text{opposite}} ).
- Secant (sec): ( \sec x = \frac{\text{hypotenuse}}{\text{adjacent}} ).
- Cotangent (cot): ( \cot x = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{opposite}} ).
