This is the equation for the Law of Sine
If sin(25°) = 0.42, what does sin-1(0.42) = ?
25°
The amount of time it takes for a trig function to complete one full cycle
period
tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x)
Name all 3 equations for Law of Cosines
a2 = b2+c2 - 2bc(cos(A)),
b2 = a2+c2 - 2ac(cos(B)),
c2 = a2+b2 - 2ab(cos(C))
If the angle x is between 0 and 2π, what are ALL of the solutions of sin-1(√3/2) = x?
x = (π/3) and (2π/3)
In the equation 5cos(π(t-3))+10, what does the value 5 represent?
amplitude
addition identity for cosine (cos(a+b))
c = 21.5, a = 25.4, B = 76.2°
Which Law do you need to use to find b?
Law of Cosines
a = 37cm, c = 29cm, C = 50°
What is the measure of angle A?
78°
What is the alternate area formula for triangles?
A = 1/2*sin(C)*a*b
A = 1/2*sin(B)*a*c
A = 1/2*sin(A)*b*c
This is the double angle identity for sine
sin(2a) = 2sin(a)cos(a)
If you are given two angles and 1 side of a triangle, which Law would you need to use to solve for the missing values of the triangle?
Law of Sines
How do we find ALL of the solutions to tan-1(1) without using a calculator? Name all the steps you need to take. (Use Radian measures)
1. tan = sin/cos
2. tan = 1 in Q1 and Q3
3. π/4 + (2π)n and 5π/4 + (2π)n
If we know the position on the unit circle at an angle θ, how do we find the position at the angle 2θ?
We know cos(θ) and sin(θ) so we use the double angle identities to find cos(2θ) and sin(2θ).
