  8. Section 2.2 Trigonometric Functions of Non-Acute Angles

  9. Reference Angles Quad I Quad II θ’ = 180° – θ θ’ = θ θ’ = θ– 180° θ’ = 360° – θ Quad III Quad IV

  10. Example 3 • Find the values of the six trigonometric functions for 210°.

  11. Finding Trigonometric Function Values For Any Nonquadrantal Angle θ Step 1 If θ > 360°, or if θ < 0°, find a coterminal angle by adding or subtracting 360° as many times as needed to get an angle greater than 0° but less than 360°. Step 2 Find the reference angle θ′. Step 3 Find the trigonometric function values for reference angle θ′.

  12. Finding Trigonometric Function Values For Any Nonquadrantal Angle θ(continued) Step 4 Determine the correct signs for the values found in Step 3. This gives the values of the trigonometric functions for angle θ.

  13. Find the exact value of sin (–150°). Example 4 Step 1. Find a coterminal angle of –150° Step 2. Find a reference angle.

  14. Find the exact value of cot 780°. Example 5 Step 1. Find a coterminal angle of 780° Step 2. Find a reference angle.

  17. Section 2.3 Finding Trig Function Values Using a Calculator

  18. Example 8 FINDING GRADE RESISTANCE

  19. Example 8 FINDING GRADE RESISTANCE (cont.) (a) Calculate F to the nearest 10 lb for a 2500-lb car traveling an uphill grade with θ = 2.5°. (b) Calculate F to the nearest 10 lb for a 5000-lb truck traveling a downhill grade with θ = –6.1°. F is negative because the truck is moving downhill.

  20. Example 8 FINDING GRADE RESISTANCE (cont.) (c) Calculate F for θ = 0° and θ = 90°. Do these answers agree with your intuition? If θ = 0°, then there is level ground and gravity does not cause the vehicle to roll. If θ = 90°, then the road is vertical and the full weight of the vehicle would be pulled downward by gravity, so F = W.

  21. Significant Digits A significant digit is a digit obtained by actual measurement. The significant digits in the following numbers are identified in color. 408 21.5 18.00 6.700 0.0025 0.09810 7300 Your answer is no more accurate than the least accurate number in your calculation.

  22. To determine the number of significant digits for answers in applications of angle measure, use the following table.

  23. Solving Triangles To solve a triangle means to find the measures of all the angles and sides of the triangle. When solving triangles, a labeled sketch is an important aid. Use a to represent the length of the side opposite angle A, b for the length of the side opposite angle B, and so on. In a right triangle, the letter c is reserved for the hypotenuse.

  24. Example 9 Solve right triangle ABC, if A = 34°30′ and c = 12.7 in. SOLVING A RIGHT TRIANGLE GIVEN AN ANGLE AND A SIDE

  25. Example 11 SOLVING A RIGHT TRIANGLE GIVEN TWO SIDES • Solve right triangle ABC, if a = 29.43 cm and c = 53.58 cm. or 33º 19΄

  26. Angles of Elevation or Depression

  27. Example Pat Porterfield knows that when she stands 123 ft from the base of a flagpole, the angle of elevation to the top of the flagpole is 26°40′. If her eyes are 5.30 ft above the ground, find the height of the flagpole. FINDING A LENGTH GIVEN THE ANGLE OF ELEVATION Since Pat’s eyes are 5.30 ft above the ground, the height of the flagpole is 61.8 + 5.30 = 67.1 ft.

  28. Example 12 From the top of a 210-ft cliff, David observes a lighthouse that is 430 ft offshore. Find the angle of depression from the top of the cliff to the base of the lighthouse. FINDING AN ANGLE OF DEPRESSION

  29. Example 12 FINDING AN ANGLE OF DEPRESSION (continued)

  30. Bearing There are two methods for expressing bearing. When a single angle is given, such as 164°, it is understood that the bearing is measured in a clockwise direction from due north.

  31. Example 13 Radar stations A and B are on an east-west line, 3.7 km apart. Station A detects a plane at C, on a bearing of 61°. Station B simultaneously detects the same plane, on a bearing of 331°. Find the distance from A to C. SOLVING A PROBLEM INVOLVING BEARING (METHOD 1)

  32. Bearing The second method for expressing bearing starts with a north-south line and uses an acute angle to show the direction, either east or west, from this line.

  33. Example 14 A ship leaves port and sails on a bearing of N 47º E for 3.5 hr. It then turns and sails on a bearing of S 43º E for 4.0 hr. If the ship’s rate of speed is 22 knots (nautical miles per hour), find the distance that the ship is from port. SOLVING A PROBLEM INVOLVING BEARING (METHOD 2)

  34. Example 14 SOLVING A PROBLEM INVOLVING BEARING (METHOD 2) (cont.) Now find c, the distance from port at point A to the ship at point B.

  35. Example 15 The subtense bar method is a method that surveyors use to determine a small distance d between two points P and Q. The subtense bar with length b is centered at Q and situated perpendicular to the line of sight between P and Q. Angle θ is measured, then the distance d can be determined. From the figure, we have USING TRIGONOMETRY TO MEASURE A DISTANCE (a) Find d with θ = 1°23′12″ and b = 2.0000 cm.

  36. Example 15 USING TRIGONOMETRY TO MEASURE A DISTANCE (continued) Let b = 2. Convert θ to decimal degrees:

  37. Example 15 The difference is USING TRIGONOMETRY TO MEASURE A DISTANCE (continued) (b) How much change would there be in the value of d if θ were measured 1″ larger? Since θ is 1″ larger, θ = 1°23′13″ ≈ 1.386944º.

  38. Example 16 A surveyor is standing 115 feet from the base of the Washington Monument. The surveyor measures the angle of elevation to the top of the monument as 78.3. How tall is the Washington Monument? Solution: where x = 115 and y is the height of the monument. So, the height of the Washington Monument is y = x tan 78.3  115(4.82882)  555 feet.
