Lesson Goals

  • Define and calculate related acute angles and trigonometric ratios for angles between ‌\(0^\circ\) and \(360^\circ\).
  • Calculate the measure of angles between ‌\(0^\circ\) and \(360^\circ\) from a given trigonometric ratio.
  • Define coterminal angles to connect negative angles and angles greater than \(360^\circ\) with angles between ‌\(0^\circ\) and \(360^\circ\).

Try This

  1. Without using a calculator, determine the primary trigonometric ratios of \(-540^\circ\).
  2. Identify two other angles whose trigonometric ratios would be equal to the trigonometric ratios of \(-540^\circ\).
