Angle in a Unit Circle

Expected Learning Outcomes: (LC Codes:


STEM_PC11AG-IIa-1-2)
1. Illustrate the unit circle and the relationship between
the linear and angular; and
2. Convert degree measure to radian measure and vice
versa.
• Angle is a plane figure formed by two
rays that have common endpoint. The
common end point is called vertex.
• Angle is defined as amount of space
covered by the rotation of one of the
rays.
Rotation of an Angle

• If the terminal side of an angle


moves in counter-clockwise
rotation, the angle is in
positive direction (+).

• If the terminal side of the angle moves in


clockwise rotation, the angle is in negative
direction (–).
Understanding the Unit Circle

• A unit circle is a circle with a


radius of 1.
• Angles in the unit circle are
measured in radians.
• The unit circle is centered
at the origin of a Cartesian
coordinate system.

minute = 60 seconds
Converting degrees to
minutes, seconds
Convert 15.6° to: a) minutes;
b) seconds

Solution: Solution:
Using the conversion Using the conversion
factor: 1°=60′ factor: 1°=3600′′

a) 15.6° to minutes b) 15.6° to seconds


15.6° 𝑥 60′/1°=936′ 15.6° 𝑥 3600“/1°=56,160′′
Converting Degrees to Radians

• To convert from degrees


to radians, multiply by
π/180.
For example:180 degrees is equivalent
to π radians.

• Radians are the preferred


unit of measure for angles
in the unit circle.
2) Convert 135° 22′16′′ to radians
Solution:

Using the conversion factor,


16” (1′/60")=0.267′

22.267” (1°/60′)=0.371°

135 ° +0.371 ° = 135.371°

135.371° ( 𝜋 𝑟𝑎𝑑/180°)=34𝜋 radians


Converting Radians to Degrees
• To convert from radians to
degrees, multiply by 180/π.
For example: π radians is
equivalent to 180 degrees.
• Both degrees and radians can
be used to measure angles, but
radians are more commonly
used in trigonometry.
2) Convert 2.23 radians to degree, minute, and
second
Solution: Use 3.14 as value of 𝜋,
180° / 𝜋=180°/ 3.14
= 57.32o
2.23 𝑟𝑎𝑑 𝑥 57.32° / 𝑟𝑎𝑑=127.8236𝑜
0.8236° 𝑥 60′/1°= 49.416’
0.416′ 𝑥 60“/1′=24.96”
2.23 radians =127° 49’ 25”
