Directed Angles:
The ordered pair of rays (OA, OB) together with the rotation of ray
ie

ie

ie
OA to occupy the position of thc ray OB is called the 'Directed Angle B
Sc

Sc

Sc
AOB' and the amount of rotation of initial ray gives the moasure of
directed angle.
r

r
ee

ee

ee
If the rotation of initial ay is anticlockwisc, then the mcasure of directed angle is positive and if
it is clockwise, then the measure of directed angle is negative.
ar

ar

ar
Co-terminal Angles:
C

C
The directed angles of different measures having samc position of initial ray and terminal ray
are called co-terminal angles.
f the two directed angles are co-terminal angles, then the difference between their measures is
an integral multiple of 360°.

Systems of Measurement of Angles:


e

e
Sexagesinmal system (Degree measure):
nc

nc

nc
Unit of measuring angle in this system is Degree, which is (1/360)t part of one complete
rotation.
ie

ie

ie
(1/60) part of 1° is called 1 minute (1).
Sc

Sc

(1/60)" part of 1' is called 1 second (1").


Sc
r

r
Circular system (radian measure): In this system the unit of measuring an angle is 'radian'.
ee

ee

ee
One radian is the measure of an angle subtended at the centre of circle by an arc whose length is
equal to radius of the circle.

Ifthere is even multiple of, i.e. t or 2n, then sin, cos and tan will remain unchanged.
Step I1: Determine sign (+ or -)
Determine the sign of that trigonometric function based
on the quadrant it lies in.
e.g, sin (Tt +8) is in third quadrant. -ve,
