Trignomotry

TermDefinition
Radians A unit of angle, equal to an angle at the center of a circle whose arc is equal in length to the radius.
Degrees A unit of measurement of angles, one three-hundred-and-sixtieth of the circumference of a circle: "set at an angle of 45 degrees".
Coterminal Angle Two angles are coterminal if they are drawn in the standard position and both have their terminal sides in the same location.
Quadrantal angle An angle with terminal side on the x-axis or y-axis. That is, the angles 0°, 90°, 180°, 270°, 360°, 450°, ... as well as –90°, –180°, –270°, –360°, ...
Unit Cicle The circle with radius 1 which is centered at the origin on the x-y plane.
Reference angle Is an acute version of that angle
Sine Written sin θ, Opposite/hypontenuse
Cosine For acute angles, cos θ, Adjacent/hypotenuse
Tangent tan θ equals Sinθ/Cosθ
Cosecant The ratio of the hypotenuse (in a right-angled triangle) to the side opposite an acute angle; the reciprocal of sine
Secant The ratio of the hypotenuse to the shorter side adjacent to an acute angle (in a right-angled triangle); the reciprocal of a cosine.
Cotangent The ratio of the side (other than the hypotenuse) adjacent to a particular acute angle to the side opposite.
Inverse The quantity which cancels out the a given quantity
Arcsin The inverse function of the sine; the angle that has a sine equal to a given number.
Arccos The inverse function of the cosine; the angle that has a cosine equal to a given number.
Arctan The inverse function of the tangent; the angle that has a tangent equal to a given number.
Law of Sines Equations relating the sines of the interior angles of a triangle and the corresponding opposite sides.
Law of Cosines An equation relating the cosine of an interior angle and the lengths of the sides of a triangle.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
