Test, Test, Test!

In case some of you are last-minute studiers (excluding myself, obviously... Eh-hm, eh-hm cough, cough), I will elaborate just a tad (for I also have a memory aid to make) on what the test may be about. Here is the orginial power point.

Six Trigonometric Ratios

1. Sine = Opposite/Hypotenuse
2. Cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
3. Tangent = Opposite/Adjacent
4. Cosecant = Hypotenuse/Opposite
5. Secant = Hypotenuse/Adjacent
6. Cotangent = Adjacent/Opposite

As you may already know, numbers 1 and 4, 2 and 5 and 3 and 6 are reciprocals of each other. Remember the sohcahtoa and choshacao! Here is my post for this subject.

Radians and Degrees


Everything you need to know is right here. I'm just too lazy to re-copy it all onto here. :)






The B17


Alright, the way I remember the different quadrants:

• Quadrant #1: Simple; 6, 4, 3 as denominators.
• Quadrant #2: The pattern of denominators to numerators (2,2,3,3,4,5,6).
• Quadrant #3: The second half of the pattern (7,6,5,4,4,3,3,2).
• Quadrant #4: Same denominators as usual (3, 4 and 6) and use the n = 2d - 1 formula for the numerators.

The Sine & Cosine Function

So, there are a lot of things to remember about this!

• Definition
• Remember cos is x and sin is y
• The basic functions:
• y = asinb(x-h)+k
• y = acosb(x-h)+k
• The properties

And that is all! Good studying and hope you all do well on the test. :)
