Document Summary
6. 1 an introduction to angles: degree and radian measure standard position: Objective 2: finding coterminal angles using degree measure. Angles in standard position having the same terminal side are called coterminal angles. Every angle (except an angle coterminal with 0 ) has a coterminal angle of least positive measure. If is a given angle, then use the notation c to denote the angle of least positive measure coterminal with . A radian is the measure of a central angle that has an intercepted arc equal in length to the radius of the circle. Objective 4: converting between degree measure and radian measure. To convert degrees to radians, we use the conversion equation 1 radians. To convert radians to degrees, we use the conversion equation. Objective 5: finding coterminal angles using radian measure. These angles are coterminal but they are not equal.
