13.2 Radian and Degree Measure

In this section, we will study the following topics:

Terminology used to describe angles Degree measure of an angle Radian measure of an angle Converting between radian and degree measure Find coterminal angles

13.2 Radian and Degree Measure

Angles

Trigonometry: measurement of triangles

Angle Measure

13.2 Radian and Degree Measure

Standard Position

Vertex at origin

The initial side of an angle in standard position is always located on the positive x-axis.

4

13.2 Radian and Degree Measure

Positive and negative angles

When sketching angles, always use an arrow to show direction.

13.2 Radian and Degree Measure

Measuring Angles

The measure of an angle is determined by the amount of

rotation from the initial side to the terminal side.

There are two common ways to measure angles, in degrees

and in radians.

We’ll start with degrees, denoted by the symbol º.

One degree (1º) is equivalent to a rotation of of one

revolution.

Angles are often classified according to the quadrant

in which their terminal sides lie.

Ex1: Name the quadrant in which each angle lies.

13.2 Radian and Degree Measure

Classifying Angles

Standard position angles that have their terminal side

on one of the axes are called quadrantal angles.

For example, 0º, 90º, 180º, 270º, 360º, … are

quadrantal angles.

13.2 Radian and Degree Measure

Coterminal Angles

Angles that have the same initial and terminal sides are

coterminal.

Angles and are coterminal.

13.2 Radian and Degree Measure

Example of Finding Coterminal Angles

You can find an angle that is coterminal to a given angle by

adding or subtracting multiples of 360º.

Ex 2:

Find one positive and one negative angle that are

coterminal to 112º.

For a positive coterminal angle, add 360º : 112º + 360º = 472º

For a negative coterminal angle, subtract 360º: 112º - 360º = -248º

Ex 3. Find one positive and one negative angle that is coterminal with the angle = 30° in standard position.

Ex 4. Find one positive and one negative angle that is coterminal with the angle = 272 in standard position.

13.2 Radian and Degree Measure

Radian Measure

A second way to measure angles is in radians.

Definition of Radian:

One radian is the measure of a central angle that intercepts arc s equal in length to the radius r of the circle.
