Term

 

Formula for area of a sector

Definition

A= (r^2 x theta)\2

 

theta = Radians

 

conversion: (µ/180)

Term

 

formula for Arc Lenglth

Definition

 

S= theta * r

 

s= arc length

theta= units of radian

(s=r in units)

Term

 

I rev = what?

Definition

2*pi radians

1 rev also = cirumference (2pi*r)

Term
relationship between linear speed and angular speed? (formula-2)
Definition

linear speed= Angular speed * r

 

s/t = (r*theta)/t

Term
sides of equilaterial triangle?
Definition

30,60,90 triangle

x= bottom

hypo= 2x

center- sqrt 3

 

Term
sides of isoceles R triangle
Definition

1/1 for sides

sqrt 2 for hypotenus

Term
tom sits on celly= relationship b/w (tan/cos/sin)
Definition
tan (theta) =sin(o) /cos(o)
Term
how many ft are in a  mile?
Definition
5280 ft
Term
coterminal
Definition
+/ - 360
Term
completmentary
Definition
90
Term
supplementary
Definition

180

 

(C comes before )

Term

 

use "fundamental identities" to find vales of trionometric function given sin 3/4 where cos is a neg.

how do we solve?

Definition
Fundamental identiies solving like normal using sin values assigning to triangle solve for missing side using Pythagorean thereom and plug (do not multiple sqrt to simiplify)
Term
if given an angle 60/30/90, and given one side how do you find x and y?
Definition
use tan angle/ or sin angle etc... = to the side given of w/e side looking, convert the tan/cos/sin angle into a fraction using (sqrt*3/2/1) cross multiply.
Term

3 pythagorean identities pg 377

 

proof

Definition

***sin^2Φ + cos^2Φ=1

 

1+ tan^2Φ = sec^2Φ

 

1+ cot^2Φ = csc^2Φ


-->(divide *** by sin2Φ or cos2Φ to gget other 2!)
