Introduction A unit circle is a circle that has a radius of 1 unit, with the center of the circle located at the origin of the coordinate plane. Because r = 1 in the unit circle, it can be a useful tool for discussing arc lengths and angles in circles. An angle in a unit circle can be studied in radians or degrees; however, since radians directly relate an angle measure to an arc length, radian measures are more useful in calculations. 1 5. 1. 2: The Unit Circle
Key Concepts • Angles are typically in standard position on a unit circle. This means that the center of the circle is placed at the origin of the coordinate plane, and the vertex of the angle is on the origin at the center of the circle. The initial side of the angle (the stationary ray from which the measurement of the angle starts) is located along the positive x-axis. The terminal side (the movable ray that determines the measure of the angle) may be in any location. 2 5. 1. 2: The Unit Circle
Key Concepts, continued 3 5. 1. 2: The Unit Circle
Key Concepts, continued • The terminal side of the angle may be rotated counterclockwise to create a positive angle or clockwise to create a negative angle. • To sketch an angle in radians on the unit circle, remember that halfway around the circle (180°) is equal to π radians and that a full rotation (360°) is equal to 2π radians. Then use the fraction of π to estimate the angle’s location, if it falls somewhere between these measures. 4 5. 1. 2: The Unit Circle
Key Concepts, continued • Within the unit circle, each angle has a reference angle. The reference angle is always the angle that the terminal side makes with the x-axis. The reference angle’s sine, cosine, and tangent are the same as that of the original angle except for the sign, which is based on the quadrant in which the terminal side is located. 5 5. 1. 2: The Unit Circle
Key Concepts, continued • Recall that a right triangle has one right angle and two acute angles (less than 90°). Sine, cosine, and tangent are trigonometric functions of an acute angle θ in a right triangle and are determined by the ratios of the lengths of the opposite side, adjacent side, and the hypotenuse of that triangle, summarized as follows. 6 5. 1. 2: The Unit Circle
Key Concepts, continued • The sine of θ = sin θ = • The cosine of θ = cos θ = • The tangent of θ = tan θ = 7 5. 1. 2: The Unit Circle
Key Concepts, continued • To find a reference angle, first sketch the original angle to determine which quadrant it lies in. Then, determine the measure of the angle between the terminal side and the x-axis. The following table shows the relationships between the reference angle and the original angle (θ ) for each quadrant. Quadrant Reference angle (degrees) Reference angle (radians) I same as θ II 180° – θ π radians – θ III θ – 180° θ – π radians IV 360° – θ 2π radians – θ 5. 1. 2: The Unit Circle 8
Key Concepts, continued • If an angle is larger than 2π radians (360°), subtract a full rotation (2π radians or 360°) until the angle is less than 2π radians (360°). Then, find the reference angle of the resulting angle. • The coordinates of the point at which the terminal side intersects the unit circle are always given by (cos θ , sin θ ), where θ is the measure of the angle. 9 5. 1. 2: The Unit Circle
Common Errors/Misconceptions • mistakenly thinking that the reference angle in Quadrants II and IV is the angle that the terminal side makes with the y-axis • reversing sin θ and cos θ when attempting to find the coordinates of the point where the terminal side intersects the unit circle 10 5. 1. 2: The Unit Circle

Guided Practice: Example 1, continued 1. Sketch a unit circle, then label π radians and 2π radians. A half rotation (180°) is π radians and a full rotation (360°) is 2π radians. Notice that 0 radians and 2π radians are in the same location on the unit circle, but represent different angle measures. 12 5. 1. 2: The Unit Circle
