Presentation Transcript

  1. Warm-Up • The infield of a baseball field is a square. The distance from home plate to first base is 90 feet. • What is the distance from home plate to second base? • What is the distance from third base to first base? • What is the distance to the pitcher’s mound if it is equidistant from all the bases?

  2. Radian/Degree Conversions A love story

  3. Learning Outcomes • I will be able to discuss angle measures in terms of degrees or radians • I will be able to convert between radians and degrees • I will be able to fill in a unit circle for both degrees and radians.

  4. What are radians? • Radians are a way to measure angles as the distance around a unit circle. • What is a unit circle? • A unit circle is a circle with a radius of 1.

  5. Why do we use radians? • We use radians because at higher levels of math, radians are much easier to use for functions when compared to degrees.

  6. How do we use radians? • Suppose we have a unit circle. What is the distance around the circle? C = 2πr or in the case of a unit circle C = 2π • Well what is the distance around a circle in degrees? 360°

  7. How do we use radians? • This means that our conversion factor looks like this… or if we simplify • We can use this to create an equation for finding radians or degrees. rad = deg ∙ deg = rad ∙

  8. How do we use radians? • Let’s try to convert degrees to radians. 90° 60° 40° 270° Remember: rad = deg ∙ rad = deg ∙ rad = 90° ∙ rad = rad = deg ∙ rad = 60° ∙ rad = rad = deg ∙ rad = 40° ∙ rad = rad = deg ∙ rad = 270° ∙ rad =

  9. How do we use radians? • Let’s try to convert radians to degrees. Remember: deg = rad ∙ deg = rad ∙ deg = ∙ deg = 45º deg = rad ∙ deg = ∙ deg = 30º deg = rad ∙ deg = ∙ deg = 72º deg = rad ∙ deg = ∙ deg = 240º

  10. Think Radians Worksheet

  11. The Unit Circle • What is a unit circle? • A unit circle is a circle with a radius of 1. • If our goal is to find coordinates of the unit circle what information might we be able to use?

  12. The Unit Circle

  13. Exit Ticket Homework • Convert 45º to radians. • Convert to degrees. • Finish Think Radians Worksheet and Blank Unit Circle • QUIZ NEXT CLASS!!!
