100

Sin(0) = ?

Solve in radians

sin(0) = 0

100

y=sin(x), sketch the graph

look at answer sheet for graph

100

Look at the triangle on the sheet and find line BC

BC = 11.503

200

Convert to Rectangular

x=3t

y=4+t

y=4+(x/3)

200

tan(pi/4) = ?

Solve in radians

tan(pi/4) = 1

pi/4 = 2 root 2 , 2 root 2

2 root 2 / 2 root 2 = 1

200

look at graph sheet 

Find the equation

y=-4cos(x)+5

200

Look at the shape on the sheet and find line AC , and <DAC 

<DAC = 73.4 deg 

AC = 8.72


300

Convert to rectangular then polar

x=7t+4

y=3t+3

y=3((x/7)+4)+3

r=15/(7sin(theta) - 3cos(theta))

cos^-1(root3/2) = ?

Solve in radians

cos^-1(root3/2) = pi/6

300

y=-tan(pi/4(x-2))+6

sketch the equation

look at graph sheet for sketch

Theta|r        Find a polar equation for the following  

0       5        table in Quadrants 2 and 3

pi/4   -5.3

pi/2    6

3pi/4   5.3

pi       7

5pi/4   5.3

3pi/2   6

7pi/4   -5.3

2pi      5

r=6-cos(theta)

cos = - in Q2 and Q3

-cot(11pi/6)

solve in radians

-cot(11pi/6) = -root3/3

cot = 1/tan

-cot = tan

tan(11pi/6) = ((-1/2)/(root3/2)) = -root3/3

Sarah and James are on an adventure at the amusement park. THey decide to ride the Ferris Wheel, which has a diameter of 30 meters and completes a full revolution in 40 seconds. Saying they get on the ferris wheel at the bottom, 5 meters above the ground, draw a sketch of a sinusoidal graph matching that of the ferris wheel and give an equation for that graph.

y=-15cos(pi/20(x)) + 5
