    Study Notes

    Angles

    • An angle is formed by a ray OA rotating about point O to position OB, denoted as ∠AOB.
    • Positive angles result from counterclockwise rotation, while negative angles arise from clockwise rotation.

    Measurement of Angles

    Sexagesimal System (Degrees)

    • A right angle is divided into 90 degrees, symbolized as 1°.
    • Each degree has 60 minutes (1′) and each minute has 60 seconds (1″).
    • Relationships: 1 right angle = 90°, 1° = 60′, 1′ = 60″.

    Centesimal System (Grades)

    • A right angle is divided into 100 grades, with 1g = 100′ and 1′ = 100″.

    Circular System (Radians)

    • One radian is the angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc equal to the circle's radius.
    • Relationships: π radians = 180°, 1° = (π/180) rad.

    Trigonometric Ratios

    • Defined as the relationship between the sides and angles of a right triangle.
    • Crucial for solving various mathematical problems and understanding circular functions.

    Trigonometric Functions on the Unit Circle

    • Defined on the coordinate axes, using unit radius:
      • cos(θ) = x
      • sin(θ) = y
      • sec(θ) = 1/x (where x ≠ 0)
      • cosec(θ) = 1/y (where y ≠ 0)
      • tan(θ) = y/x (where x ≠ 0)
      • cot(θ) = x/y (where y ≠ 0)

    Range of Trigonometric Functions

    • |sin(θ)| ≤ 1
    • |cos(θ)| ≤ 1
    • |sec(θ)| ≥ 1
    • |cosec(θ)| ≥ 1 when defined.

    Trigonometric Identities

    • Equations involving trigonometric functions, valid for all angles where the functions are defined.

    Trigonometric Ratios of Standard Angles

    • Special angles have determined trigonometric ratios aiding in calculations.

    Allied Angles

    • Angles are allied if their sum or difference yields zero or is a multiple of 90°.
    • Examples include angles like θ, 90° ± θ, 180° ± θ, and others depending on θ.

    Periodic Functions

    • A function f(x) is periodic if there exists a T > 0 such that f(x + T) = f(x) for all x.
    • All trigonometric functions are classified as periodic.

    Maximum and Minimum Values

    • Trigonometric expressions can reach specific maximum and minimum values related to their periodicity.

    Compound Angles

    • The sum of two or more angles is called a compound angle, relevant in trigonometric calculations.

    Transformation Formulae

    • These help simplify and transform trigonometric expressions for ease of use in calculations.

    Ratios of Multiple Angles

    • Specific formulas exist to handle trigonometric ratios when dealing with multiples of angles.

    Useful Angles

    • Certain angles, due to their easy relationships, are often used for quick calculations in trigonometry.
