7.4 Trigonometric Functions of General Angles-Fall 2020
b) If 𝑐𝑠𝑐𝜃 > 0 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑐𝑜𝑡𝜃 > 0, name the quadrant in which the angle 𝜃lies.
c) If 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 > 0 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑡𝑎𝑛𝜃 < 0, name the quadrant in which the angle 𝜃lies.
Example 3: Find the exact value of each of the six trigonometric functions of a
positive angle 𝜃 if (4,-3) is a point on its terminal side.
Example 4: Find the exact value of each of the six trigonometric functions of a positive
angle 𝜃 if (-6,-8) is a point on its terminal side.
Example 5: Find the exact value of each of the six trigonometric functions of
For Example, the angles 60° and 420° are coterminal, because60° + 360° = 420° .
Also, the angles −40° and 320° are coterminal, because−40° + 360° = 320°
Note:- To find a coterminal angle we add or subtract 360° or 2𝜋 or their multiples to the
original angle.
