Unit Circle Assignment

Posted by Michael Hughes at 2/5/2013 11:00:00 AM

For tonight's assignment, you must do the following:
 
1.  CONSTRUCT A COMPLETE UNIT CIRCLE: this shall include all "30,45,60" degree angles in each quadrant, as well as the axis angles.  In addition to drawing each angle, you must label all angles with both their degree and radian measure.  Additionally, you must also write the coordinates for each corresponding point along the unit circle.  *NOTE*  Use your book to help you with this; this is supposed to be the easy part of the assignment.
 
2.  COMPUTE THE SIX TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS FOR EACH ANGLE ON THE UNIT CIRCLE: for example, start with 0 and compute sin(0), cos(0), tan(0), csc(0), sec(0), and cot(0); then move to pi/6 and compute sin(pi/6), cos(pi/6), and so on.  Again, you will have to find all six trig ratios for EACH angle on the unit circle.  We discussed how you can find these ratios from the unit circle in class today.
