ERROR: type should be string, got " https://cnx.org/content/col11758/1.5 Chapter 7 The Unit Circle: Sine and Cosine Functions 855 Pythagorean Identity The Pythagorean Identity states that, for any real number t, cos2 t + sin2 t = 1 (7.15) Given the sine of some angle t and its quadrant location, find the cosine of t. 1. Substitute the known value of sin t into the Pythagorean Identity. 2. Solve for cos t. 3. Choose the solution with the appropriate sign for the x-values in the quadrant where t is located. Example 7.20 Finding a Cosine from a Sine or a Sine from a Cosine If sin(t) = 3 7 and t is in the second quadrant, find cos(t). Solution If we drop a vertical line from the point on the unit circle corresponding to t, we create a right triangle, from which we can see that the Pythagorean Identity is simply one case of the Pythagorean Theorem. See Figure 7.50. Figure 7.50 Substituting the known value for sine into the Pythagorean Identity, cos2(t) + sin2(t) = 1 cos2(t) + 9 49 = 1 cos2(t) = 40 49 cos(t) = ± 40 49 = ± 40 7 = ± 2 10 7 856 Chapter 7 The Unit Circle: Sine and Cosine Functions Because the angle is in the second quadrant, we know the x-value is a negative real number, so the cosine is also negative. cos(t) = − 2 10 7 7.20 If cos(t) = 24 25 and t is in the fourth quadrant, find sin(t). Finding Sines and Cosines of Special Angles We have already learned some properties of the special angles, such as the conversion from radians to degrees, and we found their sines and cosines using right triangles. We can also calculate sines and cosines of the special angles using the Pythagorean Identity. Finding Sines and Cosines of 45° Angles First, we will look at angles of 45° or π 4 so the x- and y-coordinates of the corresponding point on the circle are the same. Because the x- and y-values are the same, the sine and cosine values will also be equal., as shown in Figure 7" |
.51. A 45° – 45° – 90° triangle is an isosceles triangle, Figure 7.51 At t = π 4, which is 45 degrees, the radius of the unit circle bisects the first quadrantal angle. This means the radius lies along the line y = x. A unit circle has a radius equal to 1 so the right triangle formed below the line y = x has sides x an... |

will be the opposite of the first angle’s cosine value. Likewise, there will be an angle in the fourth quadrant with the same cosine as the original angle. The angle with the same cosine will share the same x-value but will have the opposite y-value. Therefore, its sine value will be the opposite of the original angle... |
beginning of this section. Suppose a rider snaps a photograph while stopped twenty feet above ground level. The rider then rotates three-quarters of the way around the circle. What is the rider’s new elevation? To answer questions such as this one, we need to evaluate the sine or cosine functions at angles that are gr... |
180° − 150° = 30°, so the reference angle is 30°. This tells us that 150° has the same sine and cosine values as 30°, except for the sign. cos(30°) = 3 2 and sin(30°) = 1 2 Since 150° is in the second quadrant, the x-coordinate of the point on the circle is negative, so the cosine value is negative. The y-coordinate i... |
