Trigonometry by using angles around the origin on a Cartesian plane.


If we plot a point on the Cartesian plane and draw a line from the point to the origin, we can
calculate that angle. Example: Plot the point (𝑡𝑡; 𝑠𝑠)
𝑦𝑦
(𝑡𝑡; 𝑠𝑠)
Creates an angle: ∅ 𝑡𝑡 – represents the 𝑥𝑥 𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣

𝑠𝑠 – represents the 𝑦𝑦 𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣𝑣

∅ The dotted line should be


𝑜𝑜 𝑥𝑥
drawn down towards the
𝑥𝑥 − 𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎. This creates a
right-angle triangle

The Cartesian plane is divided up into 4 quadrants. The quadrants represent where 𝑥𝑥 𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎 𝑦𝑦
values will be positive or negative, as well as the size of the angle.

2nd Quadrant 1st Quadrant

90° ≤ ∅ ≤ 180° 0° ≤ ∅ ≤ 90°

𝑜𝑜
3 Quadrant

4th Quadrant

180° ≤ ∅ ≤ 270° 270° ≤ ∅ ≤ 360°


Example 1:
A line is drawn from point 𝐴𝐴 (5; 6)to the origin on the sketch below.

𝐴𝐴(5; 6)

𝛽𝛽

Determine: Remember!!
1. 𝑡𝑡𝑡𝑡𝑡𝑡 𝛽𝛽 Adjacent side = 𝑥𝑥 − 𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐 = 5
2. 𝛽𝛽
3. 𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠 𝛽𝛽 Opposite side = 𝑦𝑦 − 𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐 = 6
4. √61𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠 + 𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐𝑐 2 𝛽𝛽 Hypotenuse needs to be calculated by
making use of Pythagoras
Answers:

∴ 𝛽𝛽 = 𝑡𝑡𝑡𝑡𝑡𝑡−1 �1 �

ℎ 𝑟𝑟
3. 𝑟𝑟 2 = 𝑥𝑥 2 + 𝑦𝑦 2 have to calculate 𝑟𝑟, the
𝑟𝑟 2 = 52 + 62 hypotenuse side
𝑟𝑟 2 = 25 + 36
𝑟𝑟 2 = 61
𝑟𝑟 = √61

∴ 𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠 𝛽𝛽 = = 0,64
