Convert -3 radians to degrees
-171.89o
300
Find the reference angle for
(16pi)/3
pi/3
300
Asymptotes between -2pi and 2pi for tanx
-3pi/2, -pi/2, pi/2, 3pi/2

If cos u = 1/3 and tan u < 0, find the value of u in degrees. Round to two decimal places
cos-1(1/3) = 70.53o but tan < 0 so should be in quadrant 4.
reference angle 70.53o
actual angle u = 360 - 70.53 = 289.47o
300
Find sinx and tanx if cosx = -3/5;
pi < x< (3pi)/2
sinx = -4/5 and tanx = 4/3
400
Find the arc length: Circle with radius of 20 feet. Central angle of 75o. Round to two decimal places if needed.
1. convert 75o to radians
2. s =
r*theta = (5pi)/12 * 20
Answer: 26.18 feet
400
What's the difference between tanx and cotx graphs?
tanx goes up, cotx goes down.
tanx goes through (0,0). cotx has an asymptote at x = 0
400
Write a sin equation for the graph below
y = -2sin(x-pi/3)-1
400
If cotx = -3 and sinx > 0, then secx = ?. Round to two decimal places
cotx < 0 and sinx>0 means x is in quadrant 2 and secx < 0
cotx = -3 --> tanx = -1/3 --> tan-1(-1/3) =-18.43o
Reference angle = 18.43.
sec(18.43) 1/cos(18.43) = 1.05 but said in quadrant 2, secx is negative
final answer: - 1.05

sqrt(3)sectheta + secthetacottheta=0
theta = (5pi)/6 or (11pi)/6

A wind machine used to generate electricity has blades that are 10 feet in length. The propeller is rotating at four revolutions per second. Find the linear speed, in feet per second, of the tips of the blades.
1. convert from revolutions per second to radians per second (because revolutions isn't an exact distance)
4rev/sec * 2pi rad/rev = 8pi rad/sec
2. v = rw
v = 10 * 8pi = 80pi feet/sec
3. Round to 251.33 feet/sec
500
What's the difference between secx and cscx graphs?
cscx has an asymptote at x = 0.
secx has a y-intercept at x = 0 (y = 1)
500
Write a sec equation for the graph below
y = sec(3x) - 2
500
2sin^2x + 3sinx + 1 = 0
factor to get sinx = -0.4 or -1 . . . so
x = (7pi)/6, (11pi)/6, or (3pi)/2
500
write a cosine function that has a midline of 2, amplitude of 3, period of 1 and a phase shift of 1/4 to the left.
f(x) = 3cos(2pi(x+1/4))+2
