  1. 6.1: Angles and their measure January 5, 2008

  2. Objectives • Learn basic concepts about angles • Apply degree measure to problems • Apply radian measure to problems • Calculate arc length • Calculate the area of a sector

  3. What is an angle? • An angle is formed by rotating a ray around its end point. • Important terms: • Initial side: starting position of the ray • Terminal side: the final position of the ray • Positive measure: ray is rotated counterclockwise • Negative measure: ray is rotated clockwise

  4. Degree measure • One complete rotation is 360°. • 90° is a right angle. • 180° is a straight angle. • Symbols used to denote angles: • Alpha - α • Beta - β • Theta - θ

  5. Important angle terms • Complementary angles add to be 90°. • Supplementary angles add to be 180°. • Acute angles 0<θ<90. • Obtuse angles 90<θ<180. • Coterminal angles: angles with the same terminal side.

  6. Radian measure • The circumference of a circle is 2π. • Therefore, one rotation of ray is 2πradians. • To convert from degrees to radians.. Multiply degrees by π/180° • To convert from radians to degrees.. Multiply radians by 180°/π • 2π = 360° • π = 180° • π/2 = 90° • π/3 = 60° • π/4 = 45° • π/6 = 30°

  7. Try these Degree to radian 120° 150° 200° 320° Radian to degree 2π/5 3π/4 7π/5 6π/5

  8. Arc length • Arc length s= rθ • θ must be in radian measure.

  9. Try it A circle has a radius of 4. Find the length of an arc intercepted by a central angle of 60°.

  10. Try this one A circle has a radius of 12. The arc length of a certain angle is 4. Find the central angle.

  11. Area of a sector • Area of a sector A= (1/2)r2 θ • θ must be in radian measure.

  12. Try it A circle has a radius of 5. Find the area of the sector if the central angle is 75°.

  13. Your assignment 1,2 – sketching angles 21-26 – complementary and supplementary 35-38 – find the central angle 43, 44 – converting from degrees to radians 47-52 – find the missing value (arc length) 65-68 – area of a sector
