LESSON 8a: Related Angles (Reference Angles)


Learning Goal(s) Covered C [OLG1] A4.1 [OLG4] A4.2 [OLG4]

Example 1. The point P(-3, 6) lies on the terminal arm of an angle  , in standard position.

a) Sketch

b) Determine the three primary trig ratios for  .

c) Find  in degrees.

Note:
• Standard Position

• Principal Angle (Rotational Angle)

• Related Acute Angle (Reference Angle)

C.A.S.T. RULE:

There are TWO major parts to Equivalent Trigonometric Expressions: I. __________________________________

II. ___________________________________

Example: Express as a function of its RELATED ACUTE ANGLES then evaluate

sin(135°)

I. Related Acute Angles: _____________ - always acute angle, keep the radius as _______________

Quadrant I

Quadrant II

Quadrant III

Quadrant IV

There are ______ “indicators” to look for in the trig argument to identify RELATED ACUTE ANGLES:

Example 1: Express each as a function of its RELATED ACUTE ANGLES then evaluate:

( )
a) sin 60
o
(
b) cos 150
o
) (
c) sin − 30
o
)

(
d) tan 225
o
) (
e) sin − 210
o
) f) cos(120°)

g) csc(−135°) h) cot(240°) i) sec(270°)

Remember this technically works for all angles * think about sin(105°) = sin(75°)
