Pre-Calculus Mathematics 12 – 5.1 – Trigonometric Functions
Measuring Angles:
Angles in Standard Position – initial ray/arm on the positive x –axis
Degree Measure – 1/360 of the rotation of a circle is one degree ( ˚ )
Coterminal Angles – share the same terminal arm
Just add or subtract multiples of 360o
Principal Angle - the smallest positive coterminal angle (the angle in standard position)
Example 1: Determine a positive and negative coterminal angle of 70o.

Arc Length
The arc length of a circle is proportional to its central angle and the radius of a circle. The equation for the
arc length of a circle ( s = arc length) can easily be found using our knowledge of the circumference.
For any circle, C = 2πr
Example 3: Determine the arc length of a circle with a radius of 7 cm and a central angle of 130⁰.
Example 4: Determine the distance that the tip of the minute hand ( length 10 cm ) travels in 20 minutes.

Graphing: y = a cos b𝜽 and y = a sin b𝜽
Using the value of the amplitude and the value of the period will determine the necessary scale for the
graph. The y-scale must include and the x scale must be an n
The graph then follows the pattern for the basic sine or cosine function (max /min/x –int)
Example 1: Sketch the graph over two periods.
y = 3 sin 2x
Example 2: Sketch the graph over two periods.
When transforming ( ) ( ) the “c” value is just the horizontal translation.
When working with periodic functions is called the phase shift.
The “d” value is still referred to as the vertical translation. This is known as the midline of the function.
The midline now plays the role that that x-axis did before the transformation.
Note: As with any transformation, the coefficient on “x” must equal 1. If it doesn’t, then the coefficient
must be factored out of the brackets.

Applications of Trigonometric Functions
Sine or cosine functions can be used to describe periodic or harmonic motion, motion that repeats over a
fixed time interval. There are many real life types of motion that can be modeled using a periodic function
such as pendulums, springs, Ferris wheels, alternating electrical current (AC), tides, heart beats, annual
temperatures and rainfall, radio waves, etc.
To solve questions involving periodic motion, we need to first determine the sinusoidal function (either sine
or cosine) that models the motion. The easiest way to do this is to first create the graph of the motion.
Example 3: The bottom of a Ferris wheel is 2 m above the ground. The wheel rotates once every 20
seconds and has a diameter of 12m. Brandon gets on the Ferris wheel at the bottom.
a) Graph the sinusoidal motion of Brandon’s height as a function of time for his first minute on the ride.
b) Determine sine and cosine equations for the height as a function of time.
c) Determine his height above the ground at 12 seconds.
d) Determine the total time he is 10.5m or higher above the ground while he is on the ride for 1 minute.
Pre-Calculus Mathematics 12 – 5.5 Applications of Periodic Functions
Example 4: Tides are a periodic rise and fall of water in the ocean. A low tide of 4.2 metres occurs at 4:30
am and a high tide occurs at 11:30 am on the same day. Determine the height of the tide at 1: 30 pm on
that same day.
