Term | Definition |
---|---|
unit circle | a unit circle is a circle with a radius of one. |
reference angle | The reference angle is the smallest angle between the terminal side and the x-axis. |
trig values | It is these ratios that the trigonometric functions express. To define the trigonometric functions for the angle A, start with any right triangle that contains the angle A. |
special acute angles | Angles smaller than a right angle (less than 90°) are called acute angles ("acute" meaning "sharp"). |
trig tables | In mathematics, tables of trigonometric functions are useful in a number of areas. |
trig functions | functions of an angle |
domain | All the values that go into a function The output values are called the range |
range | The difference between the lowest and highest values. |
amplitude , period , wavelength of trig waves | frequency is the number of waves per unit time. Period is the reciprocal of that - the duration of a single wave. Amplitude is the magnitude of the wave - how high it goes on the y axis. Wavelength is basically the same thing as period - |
