  2. Tangent Ratios • For a given acute angle / A with a measure of θ°, the tangent of / A, or tan θ, is the ratio of the length of the leg opposite / A to the length of the leg adjacent to / A in any right triangle having A as one vertex, or • tan θ = opposite/adjacent

  8. Sine and Cosine Ratios • For a given angle / A with a measure of θ°, the sine of / A, or sin θ, is the ratio of the length of the leg opposite A to the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle with A as one vertex, or • sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse • The cosine of / A, or cosθ, is the ratio of the length of the leg adjacent to A to the length of the hypotenuse, or opp. • cosθ = adjacent/hypotenuse adjθ°hyp.

  12. Two Trigonometric Identities • tan θ = sin θ/cosθ (sin θ)² + (cosθ)² = 1

  13. Section 10.3 Extending the Trigonometric Ratios

  14. Extending Angle Measure • Imagine a ray with its endpoint at the origin of a coordinate plane and extending along the positive x-axis. Then imagine the ray rotating a certain number of degrees, say θ, counterclockwise about the origin. θ can be any number of degrees, including numbers greater than 360°. A figure formed by a rotating ray and a stationary reference ray, such as the positive x-axis, is called an angle of rotation.

  15. The Unit Circle • The unit circle is a circle with its center at the origin and a radius of 1. • In the language of transformations, it consists of all the rotation images of the point P(1, 0) about the origin. P(1, 0)
