Definition
The radian measure of an
angle is the distance traveled
around the unit circle. Since
circumference of a circle is
2 r and r=1, the distance
around the unit circle is 2

Coterminal Angles: Angles
that have the same terminal
side.
Important Idea
In precal, angles can be
larger than 360° or 2
radians.
Important Idea
To find coterminal angles,
simply add or subtract
either 360° or 2 radians
to the given angle or any
angle that is already
coterminal to the given
angle.

Reference Angle: the
acute angle between the
terminal side of an angle
and the x axis.
(Note: x axis; not y axis).
Reference angles are
always positive.
Important Idea
How you find the reference
angle depends on which
quadrant contains the given
angle.
The ability to quickly and
accurately find a reference
angle is going to be
important in future lessons.
Example
Find the reference angle if
the given angle is 20°.
y
In quad. 1,
the given
20° angle & the
x
ref. angle are
the same.
Example
Find the reference angle if
the given angle is 120°.
For given
y
angles in quad.

angle.

4
For given
7
angles in quad.
4,
the
ref.

angle is 2 less

angle.
Important Idea
The trig ratio of a given angle is
the same as the trig ratio of its
reference angle except, possibly,
for the sign.
Example:
sin 130 sin 50
sin 230 sin 50
The unit
circle is a
circle with
radius of 1.

unit circle to
find trig
functions of
quadrantal
angles.

A trigonometric identity is a
statement of equality
between two expressions.
It means one expression
can be used in place of the
other.
