Definitions I: From a triangle  B hypotenuse 斜边 opposite side 对边 [hai’p?t?nju:z] [’?p?zit] A α C adjacent side 邻边 [?’d?eis?nt] Definitions I: From a triangle The trigonometric functions are defined as:???? sin?α = opposite/hypotenuse???? cos?α = adjacent/hypotenuse???? tan? α = opposite/adjacent Trigonometric Functions of Any Angle. We have learned angles that are greater than 90° and less than 0°, so we will need to define Trigonometric Functions of Any Angle. * * Definitions of Trigonometric Functions 三角函数的定义 2009-2-26 3 1 2 30 ° 60 ° ( ? /6) ( ? /3) 2 1 1 45 ° 45 ° ( ? /4) ( ? /4) EXERCISE1 write down the values of sin 30?,cos45 ?and tan 60 ? 3 1 2 30 ° 60 ° ( ? /6) ( ? /3) 2 1 1 45 ° 45 ° ( ? /4) ( ? /4) EXERCISE 2 write down the values of sin , cos and tan  If ? is an angle in standard position, and let P = (x, y) be a point on the terminal side of ?. If is the distance from (0, 0) to (x, y), the six trigonometric functions of ? are defined by the following ratios. DefinitionsⅡ: Definitions of Trig Functions of Any Angle y x ? (x, y) r Let (-12, -5) be a point on the terminal side of ?. Find the exact values of the six trig functions of ?. Example* r -5 y x ? (-12, -5) -12 First you must find the value of r: Example (cont) 13 -5 y x ? (-12, -5) -12 Let (-3, 4) be a point on the terminal side of ?. Find the value of the six trig functions of ?. You Try! Trig functions of Quadrantal Angles To find the sine, cosine, tangent, etc. of angles whose terminal side falls on one of the axes , we could use the unit circle.
