  • Check the mode on your calculator – radians or

degrees.

  • Check for the format of your answer; e.g. in terms of π.
  • Include the units.

Exam Technique:

Can you explain what a Radian is? Give the definition.

A radian is the measure of the angle at the centre of a circle subtended by an arc equal in length to the radius.

slide-10
SLIDE 10

Definition of a Radian

When the arc and the radius are the same size, then the angle in between is one Radian.

Each of the trigonometric ratios compare one side of a right angled triangle to one of the other sides. There are six ratios - yes 6. Can you name them and say which side is compared to which? Trigonometric Ratios

SLIDE 13

Sine, Cosine and Tangent are well known but are given on page 16 of your Formulae book – along with Pythagoras’ Theorem. Cosecant, Secant and Cotangent are the reciprocals of these and are given on page 13. Trigonometric Ratios

Beyond the right-angled triangle:

2nd Quadrant 1st Quadrant 3rd Quadrant 4th Quadrant

0° 90° 180° 270° 360° θ° = x° θ° = 180° - x° θ° = 180° + x° θ° = 360° - x° Page 13

slide-17
SLIDE 17
  • Do not need to have a right angle
  • Do need to have at least one matching pair (angle and
  • pposite side)
  • Always check for a second solution.
  • Label your diagram and rewrite the Sine formula using

these labels.

  • Formula is on page 16 of log book

Sine Rule

slide-18
SLIDE 18
  • Do not need a right angle.
  • Do need two sides with the angle in between (SAS).
  • Rewrite the formula using your labels.
  • Formula on page 16 of log book

Cosine Rule
