Trigonometry Flashcards
Where does y=sinx cross the x-axis
-180, 0, 180, 360
sec x =
1/ cos x
cot x =
1/ tan x
cosec x =
1/ sin x
1 + tan^2 x =
sec ^2 x
1 + cot ^2 x=
cosec 2^ x
when pi in the interval
must switch to radians
when theta is small and measured in radians, sin theta =
theta
when theta is small and measured in radians, tan theta =
theta
when theta is small and measured in radians, cos theta =
1 - (theta squared / 2)
in radians arc length =
L = r theta
in radians area of a sector =
0.5 r squared theta
trig identities
sin ^2 theta =
1 - cos ^2 theta
trig identities
cos ^2 theta =
1 - sin ^2 theta
tan theta =
sin theta / cos theta
trig identities
1 =
cos ^2 theta + sin ^2 theta
when multiple angle ( e.g 3 theta)
change limits first
