10.4

1o.4 ( the unit circle definition of Cosine and Sine)

Today we learned about the unit circle. (shown above)

We continued to explore Trig and the uses of Sin and Cos.


MAIN POINT

X coordinate- Cos

Y coordinate- Sin


the positive degrees on the unit circle goes counter clockwise starting in the right

(x on the picture above)

they go 0-90-180-270-360

opposite if you are moving in the negative direction


check out the notes for a better explination..




Remember the homework was changed to just the top problems on the assignment sheet ( 1,4-7,13,15-17, 21) because we did not finish the lesson and there is a quiz tomorrow :)
