Preface
WELCOME TO THE 11TH EDITION In the eleventh edition of Trigonometry, we continue our ongoing commitment to providing the best possible text to help instructors teach and students succeed. In this edition, we have remained true to the pedagogical style of the past while staying focused on the needs of today’s students. Support for all classroom types (traditional, hybrid, and online) may be found in this classic text and its supplements backed by the power of Pearson’s MyMathLab.
In this edition, we have drawn upon the extensive teaching experience of the Lial team, with special consideration given to reviewer suggestions. General updates include enhanced readability with improved layout of examples, better use of color in displays, and language written with students in mind. All calculator screenshots have been updated and now provide color displays to enhance students’ conceptual understanding. Each homework section now begins with a group of Concept Preview exercises, assignable in MyMathLab, which may be used to ensure students’ understanding of vocabulary and basic concepts prior to beginning the regular homework exercises.
Further enhancements include numerous current data examples and exercises that have been updated to reflect current information. Additional real-life exercises have been included to pique student interest; answers to writing exercises have been provided; better consistency has been achieved between the directions that introduce examples and those that introduce the corresponding exercises; and better guidance for rounding of answers has been provided in the exercise sets.
The Lial team believes this to be our best Trigonometry edition yet, and we sin- cerely hope that you enjoy using it as much as we have enjoyed writing it. Additional textbooks in this series are as follows:
College Algebra, Twelfth Edition College Algebra & Trigonometry, Sixth Edition Precalculus, Sixth Edition
HIGHLIGHTS OF NEW CONTENT ■ Discussion of the Pythagorean theorem and the distance formula has been
moved from an appendix to Chapter 1.
■ In Chapter 2, the two sections devoted to applications of right triangles now begin with short historical vignettes, to provide motivation and illustrate how trigonometry developed as a tool for astronomers.
■ The example solutions of applications of angular speed in Chapter 3 have been rewritten to illustrate the use of unit fractions.
■ In Chapter 4, we have included new applications of periodic functions. They involve modeling monthly temperatures of regions in the southern hemisphere and fractional part of the moon illuminated for each day of a particular month. The example of addition of ordinates in Section 4.4 has been rewritten, and a new example of analysis of damped oscillatory motion has been included in Section 4.5.
■ Chapter 5 now presents a derivation of the product-to-sum identity for the product sin A cos B.
■ In Chapter 6, we include several new screens of periodic function graphs that differ in appearance from typical ones. They pertain to the music phenomena of pressure of a plucked spring, beats, and upper harmonics.

xii PREFACE
■ The two sections in Chapter 7 on vectors have been reorganized but still cover the same material as in the previous edition. Section 7.4 now introduces geometrically defined vectors and applications, and Section 7.5 follows with algebraically defined vectors and the dot product.
■ In Chapter 8, the examples in Section 8.1 have been reordered for a better flow with respect to solving quadratic equations with complex solutions.
■ For visual learners, numbered Figure and Example references within the text are set using the same typeface as the figure number itself and bold print for the example. This makes it easier for the students to identify and connect them. We also have increased our use of a “drop down” style, when appropri- ate, to distinguish between simplifying expressions and solving equations, and we have added many more explanatory side comments. Guided Visual- izations, with accompanying exercises and explorations, are now available and assignable in MyMathLab.
■ Trigonometry is widely recognized for the quality of its exercises. In the eleventh edition, nearly 500 are new or modified, and many present updated real-life data. Furthermore, the MyMathLab course has expanded coverage of all exercise types appearing in the exercise sets, as well as the mid-chapter Quizzes and Summary Exercises.
FEATURES OF THIS TEXT SUPPORT FOR LEARNING CONCEPTS We provide a variety of features to support students’ learning of the essential topics of trigonometry. Explanations that are written in understandable terms, figures and graphs that illustrate examples and concepts, graphing technology that supports and enhances algebraic manipulations, and real-life applications that enrich the topics with meaning all provide opportunities for students to deepen their understanding of mathematics. These features help students make mathematical connections and expand their own knowledge base.
■ Examples Numbered examples that illustrate the techniques for working exercises are found in every section. We use traditional explanations, side comments, and pointers to describe the steps taken—and to warn students about common pitfalls. Some examples provide additional graphing calcula- tor solutions, although these can be omitted if desired.
■ Now Try Exercises Following each numbered example, the student is directed to try a corresponding odd-numbered exercise (or exercises). This feature allows for quick feedback to determine whether the student has understood the principles illustrated in the example.
■ Real-Life Applications We have included hundreds of real-life applica- tions, many with data updated from the previous edition. They come from fields such as sports, biology, astronomy, geology, music, and environmental studies.
■ Function Boxes Special function boxes offer a comprehensive, visual introduction to each type of trigonometric function and also serve as an excellent resource for reference and review. Each function box includes a table of values, traditional and calculator-generated graphs, the domain, the range, and other special information about the function. These boxes are assignable in MyMathLab.
■ Figures and Photos Today’s students are more visually oriented than ever before, and we have updated the figures and photos in this edition to
A01_LHSD7642_11_AIE_FM_ppi-xviii.indd 12 03/12/15 12:50 pm
promote visual appeal. Guided Visualizations with accompanying exercises and explorations are now available and assignable in MyMathLab.
■ Use of Graphing Technology We have integrated the use of graphing calculators where appropriate, although this technology is completely op- tional and can be omitted without loss of continuity. We continue to stress that graphing calculators support understanding but that students must first master the underlying mathematical concepts. Exercises that require the use of a graphing calculator are marked with the icon .
■ Cautions and Notes Text that is marked CAUTION warns students of common errors, and NOTE comments point out explanations that should receive particular attention.
■ Looking Ahead to Calculus These margin notes offer glimpses of how the topics currently being studied are used in calculus.
SUPPORT FOR PRACTICING CONCEPTS This text offers a wide variety of exercises to help students master trigonometry. The extensive exercise sets provide ample opportunity for practice, and the exercise problems generally increase in difficulty so that students at every level of under- standing are challenged. The variety of exercise types promotes understanding of the concepts and reduces the need for rote memorization.
■ NEW Concept Preview Each exercise set now begins with a group of CONCEPT PREVIEW exercises designed to promote understanding of vo- cabulary and basic concepts of each section. These new exercises are assign- able in MyMathLab and will provide support especially for hybrid, online, and flipped courses.
■ Exercise Sets In addition to traditional drill exercises, this text includes writing exercises, optional graphing calculator problems , and multiple- choice, matching, true/false, and completion exercises. Concept Check exer- cises focus on conceptual thinking. Connecting Graphs with Equations exercises challenge students to write equations that correspond to given graphs.
■ Relating Concepts Exercises Appearing at the end of selected exer- cise sets, these groups of exercises are designed so that students who work them in numerical order will follow a line of reasoning that leads to an un- derstanding of how various topics and concepts are related. All answers to these exercises appear in the student answer section, and these exercises are assignable in MyMathLab.
■ Complete Solutions to Selected Exercises Complete solutions to all exercises marked are available in the eText. These are often exercises that extend the skills and concepts presented in the numbered examples.
SUPPORT FOR REVIEW AND TEST PREP Ample opportunities for review are found within the chapters and at the ends of chapters. Quizzes that are interspersed within chapters provide a quick assessment of students’ understanding of the material presented up to that point in the chapter. Chapter “Test Preps” provide comprehensive study aids to help students prepare for tests.
■ Quizzes Students can periodically check their progress with in-chapter quizzes that appear in all chapters. All answers, with corresponding section references, appear in the student answer section. These quizzes are assign- able in MyMathLab.

■ Summary Exercises These sets of in-chapter exercises give students the all-important opportunity to work mixed review exercises, requiring them to synthesize concepts and select appropriate solution methods.
■ End-of-Chapter Test Prep Following the final numbered section in each chapter, the Test Prep provides a list of Key Terms, a list of New Symbols (if applicable), and a two-column Quick Review that includes a section-by-section summary of concepts and examples. This feature con- cludes with a comprehensive set of Review Exercises and a Chapter Test. The Test Prep, Review Exercises, and Chapter Test are assignable in MyMathLab. Additional Cumulative Review homework assignments are available in MyMathLab, following every chapter.

2 CHAPTER 1 Trigonometric Functions
Degree Measure The most common unit for measuring angles is the degree. Degree measure was developed by the Babylonians 4000 yr ago. To use degree measure, we assign 360 degrees to a complete rotation of a ray.* In Figure 4, notice that the terminal side of the angle corresponds to its initial side when it makes a complete rotation.
One degree, written 1°, represents 1
360 of a complete rotation.
Therefore, 90° represents 90360 = 1 4 of a complete rotation, and 180° represents
180 360 =
1 2 of a complete rotation.
An angle measuring between 0° and 90° is an acute angle. An angle mea- suring exactly 90° is a right angle. The symbol m is often used at the vertex of a right angle to denote the 90° measure. An angle measuring more than 90° but less than 180° is an obtuse angle, and an angle of exactly 180° is a straight angle.
1.1 Angles
Basic Terminology Two distinct points A and B determine a line called line AB. The portion of the line between A and B, including points A and B them- selves, is line segment AB, or simply segment AB. The portion of line AB that starts at A and continues through B, and on past B, is the ray AB. Point A is the endpoint of the ray. See Figure 1.
In trigonometry, an angle consists of two rays in a plane with a common endpoint, or two line segments with a common endpoint. These two rays (or segments) are the sides of the angle, and the common endpoint is the vertex of the angle. Associated with an angle is its measure, generated by a rotation about the vertex. See Figure 2. This measure is determined by rotating a ray starting at one side of the angle, the initial side, to the position of the other side, the terminal side. A counterclockwise rotation generates a positive measure, and a clockwise rotation generates a negative measure. The rotation can consist of more than one complete revolution.
Figure 3 shows two angles, one positive and one negative.

An angle can be named by using the name of its vertex. For example, the angle on the right in Figure 3 can be named angle C. Alternatively, an angle can be named using three letters, with the vertex letter in the middle. Thus, the angle on the right also could be named angle ACB or angle BCA.
*The Babylonians were the first to subdivide the circumference of a circle into 360 parts. There are various theories about why the number 360 was chosen. One is that it is approximately the number of days in a year, and it has many divisors, which makes it convenient to work with in computations.
A complete rotation of a ray gives an angle whose measure
is 360°. of a complete
rotation gives an angle whose measure is 1°.

In Figure 5, we use the Greek letter U (theta)* to name each angle. The table in the margin lists the upper- and lowercase Greek letters, which are often used in trigonometry.
* In addition to u (theta), other Greek letters such as a (alpha) and b (beta) are used to name angles.

EXAMPLE 1 Finding the Complement and the Supplement of an Angle
Find the measure of (a) the complement and (b) the supplement of an angle measuring 40°.
SOLUTION
(a) To find the measure of its complement, subtract the measure of the angle from 90°.
90° - 40° = 50° Complement of 40° (b) To find the measure of its supplement, subtract the measure of the angle
from 180°. 180° - 40° = 140° Supplement of 40°
■✔ Now Try Exercise 11.
EXAMPLE 2 Finding Measures of Complementary and Supplementary Angles
Find the measure of each marked angle in Figure 6.
SOLUTION
(a) Because the two angles in Figure 6(a) form a right angle, they are comple- mentary angles.
6x + 3x = 90 Complementary angles sum to 90°. 9x = 90 Combine like terms.
x = 10 Divide by 9.Don’t stop here.
Be sure to determine the measure of each angle by substituting 10 for x in 6x and 3x. The two angles have measures of 61102 = 60° and 31102 = 30°.
(b) The angles in Figure 6(b) are supplementary, so their sum must be 180°.
4x + 6x = 180 Supplementary angles sum to 180°. 10x = 180 Combine like terms.
x = 18 Divide by 10. The angle measures are 4x = 41182 = 72° and 6x = 61182 = 108°.

The measure of angle A in Figure 7 is 35°. This measure is often expressed by saying that m 1angle A 2 is 35°, where m1angle A2 is read “the measure of angle A.” The symbolism m1angle A2 = 35° is abbreviated as A = 35°.
Traditionally, portions of a degree have been measured with minutes and seconds. One minute, written 1′, is 160 of a degree.
1′ = 1 60 ° or 60′ = 1°
One second, 1″, is 160 of a minute.

Standard Position An angle is in standard position if its vertex is at the origin and its initial side lies on the positive x-axis. The angles in Figures 8(a) and 8(b) are in standard position. An angle in standard position is said to lie in the quadrant in which its terminal side lies. An acute angle is in quadrant I (Figure 8(a)) and an obtuse angle is in quadrant II (Figure 8(b)).

Coterminal Angles A complete rotation of a ray results in an angle meas- uring 360°. By continuing the rotation, angles of measure larger than 360° can be produced. The angles in Figure 9 with measures 60° and 420° have the same initial side and the same terminal side, but different amounts of rotation. Such angles are coterminal angles. Their measures differ by a multiple of 360°. As shown in Figure 10, angles with measures 110° and 830° are coterminal.

EXAMPLE 6 Analyzing Revolutions of a Disk Drive
A constant angular velocity disk drive spins a disk at a constant speed. Suppose a disk makes 480 revolutions per min. Through how many degrees will a point on the edge of the disk move in 2 sec?
SOLUTION The disk revolves 480 times in 1 min, or 480 60 times = 8 times per sec
(because 60 sec = 1 min). In 2 sec, the disk will revolve 2 # 8 = 16 times. Each revolution is 360°, so in 2 sec a point on the edge of the disk will revolve
16 # 360° = 5760°. A unit analysis expression can also be used.
480 rev 1 min
* 1 min 60 sec
* 360° 1 rev

129. Viewing Field of a Telescope As a consequence of Earth’s rotation, celestial objects such as the moon and the stars appear to move across the sky, rising in the east and setting in the west. As a result, if a telescope on Earth remains stationary while viewing a celestial object, the object will slowly move outside the viewing field of the telescope. For this reason, a motor is often attached to telescopes so that the telescope rotates at the same rate as Earth. Determine how long it should take the motor to turn the telescope through an angle of 1 min in a direction per- pendicular to Earth’s axis.

Find the measures of angles 1, 2, 3, and 4 in Figure 15, given that lines m and n are parallel.
SOLUTION Angles 1 and 4 are alternate exterior angles, so they are equal.
3x + 2 = 5x - 40 Alternate exterior angles have equal measures. 42 = 2x Subtract 3x and add 40. 21 = x Divide by 2.
Angle 1 has measure
3x + 2 = 3 # 21 + 2 Substitute 21 for x. = 65°. Multiply, and then add.
Angle 4 has measure
5x - 40 = 5 # 21 - 40 Substitute 21 for x. = 65°. Multiply, and then
subtract.
Angle 2 is the supplement of a 65° angle, so it has measure
180° - 65° = 115°.
Angle 3 is a vertical angle to angle 1, so its measure is also 65°. (There are other ways to determine these measures.)

Triangles An important property of triangles, first proved by Greek geom- eters, deals with the sum of the measures of the angles of any triangle.
Angle Sum of a Triangle
The sum of the measures of the angles of any triangle is 180°.
A rather convincing argument for the truth of this statement uses any size trian- gle cut from a piece of paper. Tear each corner from the triangle, as suggested in Figure 16(a). We should be able to rearrange the pieces so that the three angles form a straight angle, which has measure 180°, as shown in Figure 16(b).

Similar triangles are triangles of exactly the same shape but not neces- sarily the same size. Figure 18 on the next page shows three pairs of similar triangles. The two triangles in Figure 18(c) have not only the same shape but also the same size. Triangles that are both the same size and the same shape are congruent triangles. If two triangles are congruent, then it is possible to pick one of them up and place it on top of the other so that they coincide.

Conditions for Similar Triangles
Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF if the following conditions hold.
1. Corresponding angles have the same measure.
2. Corresponding sides are proportional. (That is, the ratios of their corre- sponding sides are equal.)
The triangular supports for a child’s swing set are congruent (and thus simi- lar) triangles, machine-produced with exactly the same dimensions each time. These supports are just one example of similar triangles. The supports of a long bridge, all the same shape but increasing in size toward the center of the bridge, are examples of similar (but not congruent) figures. See the photo.
Consider the correspondence between triangles ABC and DEF in Figure 19.
Angle A corresponds to angle D.
Angle B corresponds to angle E.
Angle C corresponds to angle F.
Side AB corresponds to side DE.
Side BC corresponds to side EF.
Side AC corresponds to side DF.

EXAMPLE 3 Finding Angle Measures in Similar Triangles
In Figure 20, triangles ABC and NMP are similar. Find all unknown angle measures.
SOLUTION First, we find the measure of angle M using the angle sum prop- erty of a triangle.
104° + 45° + M = 180° The sum of the angles is 180°. 149° + M = 180° Add.
M = 31° Subtract 149°.
The triangles are similar, so corresponding angles have the same measure. Because C corresponds to P and P measures 104°, angle C also measures 104°. Angles B and M correspond, so B measures 31°.

Given that triangle ABC and triangle DFE in Figure 21 are similar, find the lengths of the unknown sides of triangle DFE.
SOLUTION Similar triangles have corre- sponding sides in proportion. Use this fact to find the unknown side lengths in triangle DFE.
Side DF of triangle DFE corresponds to side AB of triangle ABC, and sides DE and AC correspond. This leads to the following proportion.
8 16
= DF 24
Recall this property of proportions from algebra.
If a b =
c d
, then ad = bc.
We use this property to solve the equation for DF.
8 16
= DF 24
Corresponding sides are proportional.
8 # 24 = 16 # DF If ab = cd , then ad = bc. 192 = 16 # DF Multiply. 12 = DF Divide by 16.
Side DF has length 12. Side EF corresponds to CB. This leads to another proportion.
8 16
= EF 32
Corresponding sides are proportional.
8 # 32 = 16 # EF If ab = cd , then ad = bc. 16 = EF Solve for EF.
Side EF has length 16. ■✔ Now Try Exercise 55.

EXAMPLE 5 Finding the Height of a Flagpole
Workers must measure the height of a building flagpole. They find that at the instant when the shadow of the building is 18 m long, the shadow of the flagpole is 27 m long. The building is 10 m high. Find the height of the flagpole.
SOLUTION Figure 22 shows the information given in the problem. The two triangles are similar, so corresponding sides are in proportion.
MN 10

Corresponding sides are proportional.
MN 10

46. Carpentry Technique The following tech- nique is used by carpenters to draw a 60° angle with a straightedge and a compass. Why does this technique work? (Source: Hamilton, J. E. and M. S. Hamilton, Math to Build On, Con- struction Trades Press.)
“Draw a straight line segment, and mark a point near the midpoint. Now place the tip on the marked point, and draw a semicircle. Without changing the setting of the compass, place the tip at the right intersection of the line and the semicircle, and then mark a small arc across the semicircle. Finally, draw a line segment from the marked point on the original segment to the point where the arc crosses the semicircle. This will form a 60° angle with the original segment.”

69. Solar Eclipse on Earth The sun has a diameter of about 865,000 mi with a maxi- mum distance from Earth’s surface of about 94,500,000 mi. The moon has a smaller diam- eter of 2159 mi. For a total solar eclipse to occur, the moon must pass between Earth and the sun. The moon must also be close enough to Earth for the moon’s umbra (shadow) to reach the surface of Earth. (Source: Karttunen, H., P. Kröger, H. Oja, M. Putannen, and K. Donners, Editors, Funda- mental Astronomy, Fourth Edition, Springer-Verlag.)

(b) The closest approach of the moon to Earth’s surface was 225,745 mi and the far- thest was 251,978 mi. (Source: World Almanac and Book of Facts.) Can a total solar eclipse occur every time the moon is between Earth and the sun?

73. Sizes and Distances in the Sky Astronomers use degrees, minutes, and seconds to measure sizes and distances in the sky along an arc from the horizon to the zenith point directly overhead. An adult observer on Earth can judge distances in the sky using his or her hand at arm’s length. An outstretched hand will be about 20 arc degrees wide from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the little finger. A clenched fist at arm’s length measures about 10 arc degrees, and a thumb corresponds to about 2 arc degrees. (Source: Levy, D. H., Skywatching, The Nature Company.)

(b) If an outstretched hand plus a fist cover the distance between two bright stars, about how far apart in arc degrees are the stars?
74. Estimates of Heights There is a relatively simple way to make a reasonable esti- mate of a vertical height.
Step 1 Hold a 1-ft ruler vertically at arm’s length and approach the object to be measured.
Step 2 Stop when one end of the ruler lines up with the top of the object and the other end with its base.
Step 3 Now pace off the distance to the object, taking normal strides. The number of paces will be the approximate height of the object in feet.

The Pythagorean Theorem and the Distance Formula The distance between any two points in a plane can be found by using a formula derived from the Pythagorean theorem.
■ The Pythagorean Theorem and the Distance Formula

■ Quadrantal Angles Pythagorean Theorem
In a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.
a2 + b2 = c2 Leg b
Hypotenuse cLeg a
To find the distance between two points P1x1, y12 and R1x2, y22, draw a line segment connecting the points, as shown in Figure 23. Complete a right trian- gle by drawing a line through 1x1, y12 parallel to the x-axis and a line through 1x2, y22 parallel to the y-axis. The ordered pair at the right angle is 1x2, y12.
The horizontal side of the right triangle in Figure 23 has length x2 - x1, while the vertical side has length y2 - y1. If d represents the distance between the two original points, then by the Pythagorean theorem,
d2 = 1x2 - x122 + 1 y2 - y122. Solving for d, we obtain the distance formula.

Distance Formula
Suppose that P1x1, y12 and R1x2, y22 are two points in a coordinate plane. The distance between P and R, written d1P, R2, is given by the following formula.
d 1P, R 2 = !1x2 − x1 2 2 + 1 y2 − y1 2 2 That is, the distance between two points in a coordinate plane is the square root of the sum of the square of the difference between their x-coordinates and the square of the difference between their y-coordinates.

231.3 Trigonometric Functions
Trigonometric Functions To define the six trigonometric functions, we start with an angle u in standard position and choose any point P having coordi- nates 1x, y2 on the terminal side of angle u. (The point P must not be the vertex of the angle.) See Figure 24. A perpendicular from P to the x-axis at point Q determines a right triangle, having vertices at O, P, and Q. We find the distance r from P1x, y2 to the origin, 10, 02, using the distance formula.
d1O, P2 = 21x2 - x122 + 1y2 - y122 Distance formula r = 21x - 022 + 1y - 022 Substitute 1x, y2 for 1x2, y22 and 10, 02 for 1x1, y12. r = 2x2 + y2 Subtract.
Notice that r + 0 because this is the undirected distance. The six trigonometric functions of angle u are
sine, cosine, tangent, cotangent, secant, and cosecant,
abbreviated sin, cos, tan, cot, sec, and csc.

Let 1x, y2 be a point other than the origin on the terminal side of an angle u in standard position. The distance from the point to the origin is

EXAMPLE 1 Finding Function Values of an Angle
The terminal side of an angle u in standard position passes through the point 18, 152. Find the values of the six trigonometric functions of angle u.
SOLUTION Figure 25 shows angle u and the triangle formed by dropping a perpendicular from the point 18, 152 to the x-axis. The point 18, 152 is 8 units to the right of the y-axis and 15 units above the x-axis, so
x = 8 and y = 15. Now use r = 2x2 + y2 . r = 282 + 152 = 264 + 225 = 2289 = 17
We can now use these values for x, y, and r to find the values of the six trigono- metric functions of angle u.

cos u = x r

EXAMPLE 2 Finding Function Values of an Angle
The terminal side of an angle u in standard position passes through the point 1-3, -42. Find the values of the six trigonometric functions of angle u.
SOLUTION As shown in Figure 26, x = -3 and y = -4.
r = 21-322 + 1-422 r = 2x2 + y2 r = 225 Simplify the radicand. r = 5 r 7 0
Now we use the definitions of the trigonometric functions.

cos u = -3 5

tan u = -4-3 = 4 3

We can find the six trigonometric functions using any point other than the origin on the terminal side of an angle. To see why any point can be used, refer to Figure 27, which shows an angle u and two distinct points on its terminal side. Point P has coordinates 1x, y2, and point P′ (read “P-prime”) has coordi- nates 1x′, y′2. Let r be the length of the hypotenuse of triangle OPQ, and let r ′ be the length of the hypotenuse of triangle OP′Q′. Because corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional, we have
y r
= y′ r′
. Corresponding sides are proportional.
Thus sin u = yr is the same no matter which point is used to find it. A similar result holds for the other five trigonometric functions.
We can also find the trigonometric function values of an angle if we know the equation of the line coinciding with the terminal ray. Recall from algebra that the graph of the equation
Ax + By = 0 Linear equation in two variables
is a line that passes through the origin 10, 02. If we restrict x to have only nonpos- itive or only nonnegative values, we obtain as the graph a ray with endpoint at the origin. For example, the graph of x + 2y = 0, x Ú 0, shown in Figure 28, is a ray that can serve as the terminal side of an angle u in standard position. By choosing a point on the ray, we can find the trigonometric function values of the angle.

251.3 Trigonometric Functions
Recall that when the equation of a line is written in the form
y = mx + b, Slope-intercept form
the coefficient m of x gives the slope of the line. In Example 3, the equation x + 2y = 0 can be written as y = - 12 x, so the slope of this line is -
1 2 . Notice
that tan u = - 12 .
In general, it is true that m = tan U.

EXAMPLE 3 Finding Function Values of an Angle
Find the six trigonometric function values of an angle u in standard position, if the terminal side of u is defined by x + 2y = 0, x Ú 0.
SOLUTION The angle is shown in Figure 29. We can use any point except 10, 02 on the terminal side of u to find the trigonometric function values. We choose x = 2 and find the corresponding y-value.
x + 2y = 0, x Ú 0 2 + 2y = 0 Let x = 2.
2y = -2 Subtract 2. y = -1 Divide by 2.
The point 12, -12 lies on the terminal side, and so r = 222 + 1-122 = 25. Now we use the definitions of the trigonometric functions.
sin u = y r
= -125 = -125 # 2525 = - 255 cos u = x
r = 225 = 225 # 2525 = 2255
tan u = y x

= - 1 2
csc u = r y
= 25-1 = - 25 sec u = rx = 252 cot u = xy = 2-1 = -2 Multiply by 2525 , a form of 1, to rationalize the denominators.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 51.
Quadrantal Angles If the terminal side of an angle in standard position lies along the y-axis, any point on this terminal side has x-coordinate 0. Similarly, an angle with terminal side on the x-axis has y-coordinate 0 for any point on the terminal side. Because the values of x and y appear in the denominators of some trigonometric functions, and because a fraction is undefined if its denominator is 0, some trigonometric function values of quadrantal angles (i.e., those with terminal side on an axis) are undefined.
When determining trigonometric function values of quadrantal angles, Figure 30 can help find the ratios. Because any point on the terminal side can be used, it is convenient to choose the point one unit from the origin, with r = 1. (Later we will extend this idea to the unit circle.)

26 CHAPTER 1 Trigonometric Functions
To find the function values of a quadrantal angle, determine the position of the terminal side, choose the one of these four points that lies on this terminal side, and then use the definitions involving x, y, and r.
A calculator in degree mode returns the correct values for sin 90° and cos 90°. The screen shows an ERROR message for tan 90°, because 90° is not in the domain of the tangent function.
EXAMPLE 4 Finding Function Values of Quadrantal Angles
Find the values of the six trigonometric functions for each angle.

The conditions under which the trigonometric function values of quadrantal angles are undefined are summarized here.
Conditions for Undefined Function Values
Identify the terminal side of a quadrantal angle.
If the terminal side of the quadrantal angle lies along the y-axis, then the tangent and secant functions are undefined.
If the terminal side of the quadrantal angle lies along the x-axis, then the cotangent and cosecant functions are undefined.
The function values of some commonly used quadrantal angles, 0°, 90°, 180°, 270°, and 360°, are summarized in the table on the next page. They can be determined when needed by using Figure 30 and the method of Example 4(a).

Reciprocal Identities Recall the definition of a reciprocal.
The reciprocal of a nonzero number x is 1 x
.
Examples: The reciprocal of 2 is 12 , and the reciprocal of 8
11 is 11 8 . There is no
reciprocal for 0 because 10 is undefined.
The definitions of the trigonometric functions in the previous section were written so that functions in the same column were reciprocals of each other. Because sin u = yr and csc u =
r y ,
sin u = 1 csc u
and csc u = 1 sin u
, provided sin u ≠ 0.
Also, cos u and sec u are reciprocals, as are tan u and cot u. The reciprocal identities hold for any angle u that does not lead to a 0 denominator.
The screen in Figure 34(a) shows that csc 90° = 1 and sec1-180°2 = -1 using appropriate reciprocal identities. The third entry uses the reciprocal func- tion key x-1 to evaluate sec1-180°2. Figure 34(b) shows that attempting to find sec 90° by entering 1cos 90° produces an ERROR message, indicating that the reciprocal is undefined. See Figure 34(c). ■

Signs and Ranges of Function Values In the definitions of the trigo- nometric functions, r is the distance from the origin to the point 1x, y2. This distance is undirected, so r 7 0. If we choose a point 1x, y2 in quadrant I, then both x and y will be positive, and the values of all six functions will be positive.
A point 1x, y2 in quadrant II satisfies x 6 0 and y 7 0. This makes the values of sine and cosecant positive for quadrant II angles, while the other four functions take on negative values. Similar results can be obtained for the other quadrants.
This important information is summarized here.

SOLUTION
(a) An angle of 87° is in the first quadrant, with x, y, and r all positive, so all of its trigonometric function values are positive.
(b) A 300° angle is in quadrant IV, so the cosine and secant are positive, while the sine, cosecant, tangent, and cotangent are negative.

Figure 35(a) shows an angle u as it increases in measure from near 0° toward 90°. In each case, the value of r is the same. As the measure of the angle increases, y increases but never exceeds r, so y … r. Dividing both sides by the positive number r gives
y r … 1.
In a similar way, angles in quadrant IV as in Figure 35(b) suggest that

The tangent of an angle is defined as y x . It is possible that x 6 y, x = y, or
x 7 y. Thus, yx can take any value, so tan U can be any real number, as can cot U.
EXAMPLE 3 Identifying the Quadrant of an Angle
Identify the quadrant (or possible quadrants) of an angle u that satisfies the given conditions.
(a) sin u 7 0, tan u 6 0 (b) cos u 6 0, sec u 6 0
SOLUTION
(a) Because sin u 7 0 in quadrants I and II and tan u 6 0 in quadrants II and IV, both conditions are met only in quadrant II.
(b) The cosine and secant functions are both negative in quadrants II and III, so in this case u could be in either of these two quadrants.

Determine whether each statement is possible or impossible.
(a) sin u = 2.5 (b) tan u = 110.47 (c) sec u = 0.6
SOLUTION
(a) For any value of u, we know that -1 … sin u … 1. Because 2.5 7 1, it is impossible to find a value of u that satisfies sin u = 2.5.
(b) The tangent function can take on any real number value. Thus, tan u = 110.47 is possible.
(c) Because E sec u E Ú 1 for all u for which the secant is defined, the statement sec u = 0.6 is impossible.
■✔ Now Try Exercises 53, 57, and 59.
The six trigonometric functions are defined in terms of x, y, and r, where the Pythagorean theorem shows that r2 = x2 + y2 and r 7 0. With these relation- ships, knowing the value of only one function and the quadrant in which the angle lies makes it possible to find the values of the other trigonometric functions.

For all angles u for which the function values are defined, the following identities hold.

We give only one form of each identity. However, algebraic transforma- tions produce equivalent forms. For example, by subtracting sin2 u from both sides of sin2 u + cos2 u = 1, we obtain an equivalent identity.
cos2 u = 1 - sin2 u Alternative form
It is important to be able to transform these identities quickly and also to rec- ognize their equivalent forms.

EXAMPLE 7 Using Identities to Find Function Values
Find sin u and cos u, given that tan u = 43 and u is in quadrant III.
SOLUTION Because u is in quadrant III, sin u and cos u will both be negative.
It is tempting to say that since tan u = sin ucos u and tan u = 4 3 , then sin u = -4 and
cos u = -3. This is incorrect, however—both sin u and cos u must be in the interval 3-1, 14.
We use the Pythagorean identity tan2 u + 1 = sec2 u to find sec u, and then the reciprocal identity cos u = 1sec u to find cos u.
tan2 u + 1 = sec2 u Pythagorean identity
a 4 3 b 2 + 1 = sec2 u tan u = 43 16 9
+ 1 = sec2 u Square 43 .
25 9
= sec2 u Add.
- 5 3
= sec u Choose the negative square root because sec u is negative when u is in quadrant III.
- 3 5
= cos u Secant and cosine are reciprocals.
Be careful to choose the correct
sign here.
Now we use this value of cos u to find sin u.
sin2 u = 1 - cos2 u Pythagorean identity (alternative form)
sin2 u = 1 - a - 3 5 b 2 cos u = - 35
sin2 u = 1 - 9 25
Square - 35 .
sin2 u = 16 25
Subtract.
sin u = - 4 5
Choose the negative square root.
Again, be careful.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 77.
CAUTION In exercises like Examples 5 and 6, be careful to choose the correct sign when square roots are taken. Refer as needed to the diagrams preceding Example 2 that summarize the signs of the functions.

371.4 Using the Definitions of the Trigonometric Functions
NOTE Example 7 can also be worked by sketching u in standard position in quadrant III, finding r to be 5, and then using the definitions of sin u and cos u in terms of x, y, and r. See Figure 37.
When using this method, be sure to choose the correct signs for x and y as determined by the quadrant in which the terminal side of u lies. This is analogous to choosing the correct signs after apply- ing the Pythagorean identities.

48. Angle through Which the Celestial North Pole Moves At present, the north star Polaris is located very near the celestial north pole. However, because Earth is inclined 23.5°, the moon’s gravi- tational pull on Earth is uneven. As a result, Earth slowly precesses (moves in) like a spinning top, and the direction of the celestial north pole traces out a circular path once every 26,000 yr. See the figure. For example, in approximately A.D. 14,000 the star Vega—not the star Polaris—will be located at the celestial north pole. As viewed from the center C of this circular path, calculate the angle (to the nearest second) through which the celestial north pole moves each year. (Source: Zeilik, M., S. Gregory, and E. Smith, Introduc- tory Astronomy and Astrophysics, Second Edition, Saunders College Publishers.)

48 CHAPTER 2 Acute Angles and Right Triangles
Right-Triangle-Based Definitions of the Trigonometric Functions Angles in standard position can be used to define the trigonometric functions. There is also another way to approach them: as ratios of the lengths of the sides of right triangles.
Figure 1 shows an acute angle A in standard position. The definitions of the trigonometric function values of angle A require x, y, and r. As drawn in Figure 1, x and y are the lengths of the two legs of the right triangle ABC, and r is the length of the hypotenuse.
The side of length y is the side opposite angle A, and the side of length x is the side adjacent to angle A. We use the lengths of these sides to replace x and y in the definitions of the trigonometric functions, and the length of the hypot- enuse to replace r, to obtain the following right-triangle-based definitions. In the definitions, we use the standard abbreviations for the sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant, and cotangent functions.

NOTE We will sometimes shorten wording like “side opposite A” to just “side opposite” when the meaning is obvious.
EXAMPLE 1 Finding Trigonometric Function Values of an Acute Angle
Find the sine, cosine, and tangent values for angles A and B in the right triangle in Figure 2.
SOLUTION The length of the side opposite angle A is 7, the length of the side adjacent to angle A is 24, and the length of the hypotenuse is 25.
sin A = side opposite hypotenuse
= 7 25
cos A = side adjacent hypotenuse
= 24 25
tan A = side opposite side adjacent
= 7 24
The length of the side opposite angle B is 24, and the length of the side adjacent to angle B is 7.
sin B = 24 25
cos B = 7 25
tan B = 24 7
Use the right-triangle-based definitions of the trigonometric functions.

The cofunction identities state the following.
Cofunction values of complementary angles are equal.
Cofunction Identities
For any acute angle A, the following hold.
sin A = cos 190° − A 2 sec A = csc 190° − A 2 tan A = cot 190° − A 2 cos A = sin 190° − A 2 csc A = sec 190° − A 2 cot A = tan 190° − A 2

Whenever we use A, B, and C to name angles in a right triangle, C will be the right angle.
NOTE The cosecant, secant, and cotangent ratios are reciprocals of the sine, cosine, and tangent values, respectively, so in Example 1 we have
csc A = 25 7
sec A = 25 24
cot A = 24 7
csc B = 25 24
sec B = 25 7 and cot B = 7
24 .
Cofunctions Figure 3 shows a right triangle with acute angles A and B and a right angle at C. The length of the side opposite angle A is a, and the length of the side opposite angle B is b. The length of the hypotenuse is c. By the pre- ceding definitions, sin A = ac . Also, cos B =
a c . Thus, we have the following.
sin A = a c = cos B
Similarly, tan A = a b = cot B and sec A =
c b = csc B.
In any right triangle, the sum of the two acute angles is 90°, so they are complementary. In Figure 3, A and B are thus complementary, and we have established that sin A = cos B. This can also be written as follows.
sin A = cos190° - A2 B = 90° - A This is an example of a more general relationship between cofunction pairs.

How Function Values Change as Angles Change Figure 4 shows three right triangles. From left to right, the length of each hypotenuse is the same, but angle A increases in measure. As angle A increases in measure from 0° to 90°, the length of the side opposite angle A also increases.
EXAMPLE 3 Solving Equations Using Cofunction Identities
Find one solution for each equation. Assume all angles involved are acute angles.
(a) cos1u + 4°2 = sin13u + 2°2 (b) tan12u - 18°2 = cot1u + 18°2 SOLUTION
(a) Sine and cosine are cofunctions, so cos1u + 4°2 = sin13u + 2°2 is true if the sum of the angles is 90°.
1u + 4°2 + 13u + 2°2 = 90° Complementary angles 4u + 6° = 90° Combine like terms.
4u = 84° Subtract 6° from each side. u = 21° Divide by 4.
(b) Tangent and cotangent are cofunctions.
12u - 18°2 + 1u + 18°2 = 90° Complementary angles 3u = 90° Combine like terms. u = 30° Divide by 3.
■✔ Now Try Exercises 31 and 33.
In the ratio
sin A = side opposite hypotenuse
= y r
,
as angle A increases, the numerator of this fraction also increases, while the denominator is fixed. Therefore, sin A increases as A increases from 0° to 90°.
As angle A increases from 0° to 90°, the length of the side adjacent to A decreases. Because r is fixed, the ratio xr decreases. This ratio gives cos A, showing that the values of cosine decrease as the angle measure changes from 0° to 90°. Finally, increasing A from 0° to 90° causes y to increase and x to decrease, making the values of
y x = tan A increase.
A similar discussion shows that as A increases from 0° to 90°, the values of sec A increase, while the values of cot A and csc A decrease.

512.1 Trigonometric Functions of Acute Angles
Trigonometric Function Values of Special Angles Certain special angles, such as 30°, 45°, and 60°, occur so often in trigonometry and in more advanced mathematics that they deserve special study. We start with an equilateral triangle, a triangle with all sides of equal length. Each angle of such a triangle measures 60°. Although the results we will obtain are independent of the length, for convenience we choose the length of each side to be 2 units. See Figure 5(a).
Bisecting one angle of this equilateral triangle leads to two right triangles, each of which has angles of 30°, 60°, and 90°, as shown in Figure 5(b). An angle bisector of an equilateral triangle also bisects the opposite side. Thus the shorter leg has length 1. Let x represent the length of the longer leg.
22 = 12 + x2 Pythagorean theorem 4 = 1 + x2 Apply the exponents. 3 = x2 Subtract 1 from each side.
23 = x Square root property; choose the positive root. Figure 6 summarizes our results using a 30°9 60° right triangle. As shown in the figure, the side opposite the 30° angle has length 1. For the 30° angle,
hypotenuse = 2, side opposite = 1, side adjacent = 23 . Now we use the definitions of the trigonometric functions.
sin 30° = side opposite hypotenuse
= 1 2
cos 30° = side adjacent hypotenuse
= 23 2
tan 30° = side opposite side adjacent
= 123 = 123 # 2323 = 233 csc 30° = 2
1 = 2
sec 30° = 223 = 223 # 2323 = 2233 cot 30° = 23
1 = 23
Rationalize the denominators.
EXAMPLE 4 Comparing Function Values of Acute Angles
Determine whether each statement is true or false.
(a) sin 21° 7 sin 18° (b) sec 56° … sec 49° SOLUTION
(a) In the interval from 0° to 90°, as the angle increases, so does the sine of the angle. This makes sin 21° 7 sin 18° a true statement.
(b) For fixed r, increasing an angle from 0° to 90° causes x to decrease. Therefore, sec u = rx increases. The statement sec 56° … sec 49° is false.

52 CHAPTER 2 Acute Angles and Right Triangles
We find the values of the trigonometric functions for 45° by starting with a 45°9 45° right triangle, as shown in Figure 7. This triangle is isosceles. For simplicity, we choose the lengths of the equal sides to be 1 unit. (As before, the results are independent of the length of the equal sides.) If r represents the length of the hypotenuse, then we can find its value using the Pythagorean theorem.
12 + 12 = r 2 Pythagorean theorem 2 = r 2 Simplify.
22 = r Choose the positive root. Now we use the measures indicated on the 45°9 45° right triangle in Figure 7.
sin 45° = 122 = 222 cos 45° = 122 = 222 tan 45° = 11 = 1 csc 45° = 22
1 = 22 sec 45° = 22

Function values for 30°, 45°, and 60° are summarized in the table that follows.
EXAMPLE 5 Finding Trigonometric Function Values for 60°
Find the six trigonometric function values for a 60° angle.
SOLUTION Refer to Figure 6 to find the following ratios.
sin 60° = 23 2
cos 60° = 1 2
tan 60° = 23 1
= 23 csc 60° = 223 = 2233 sec 60° = 21 = 2 cot 60° = 123 = 233
■✔ Now Try Exercises 49, 51, and 53.

532.1 Trigonometric Functions of Acute Angles
A calculator can find trigonometric function values at the touch of a key. So why do we spend so much time finding values for special angles? We do this because a calculator gives only approximate values in most cases instead of exact values. A scientific calculator gives the following approximation for tan 30°.
tan 30° ≈ 0.57735027 ≈ means “is approximately equal to.”
Earlier, however, we found the exact value.
tan 30° = 23 3
Exact value
Figure 8 shows mode display options for the TI-84 Plus. Figure 9 displays the output when evaluating the tangent, sine, and cosine of 30°. (The calculator should be in degree mode to enter angle measure in degrees.)

2.2 Trigonometric Functions of Non-Acute Angles
Reference Angles Associated with every nonquadrantal angle in stand- ard position is an acute angle called its reference angle. A reference angle for an angle u, written u′, is the acute angle made by the terminal side of angle u and the x-axis.

Figure 10 shows several angles u (each less than one complete counterclock- wise revolution) in quadrants II, III, and IV, respectively, with the reference angle u′ also shown. In quadrant I, u and u′ are the same. If an angle u is negative or has measure greater than 360°, its reference angle is found by first finding its cotermi- nal angle that is between 0° and 360°, and then using the diagrams in Figure 10.
NOTE Reference angles are always positive and are between 0° and 90°.

EXAMPLE 2 Finding Trigonometric Function Values of a Quadrant III Angle
Find exact values of the six trigonometric functions of 210°.
SOLUTION An angle of 210° is shown in Figure 12. The reference angle is
210° - 180° = 30°.
To find the trigonometric function values of 210°, choose point P on the ter- minal side of the angle so that the distance from the origin O to P is 2. (Any positive number would work, but 2 is most convenient.) By the results from
30°9 60° right triangles, the coordinates of point P become A -23 , -1 B , with x = -23 , y = -1, and r = 2. Then, by the definitions of the trigonometric functions, we obtain the following.
sin 210° = -1 2
= - 1 2
csc 210° = 2-1 = -2
cos 210° = -23 2
= - 23 2
sec 210° = 2 -23 = - 2233
tan 210° = -1 -23 = 233 cot 210° = -23-1 = 23
■✔ Now Try Exercise 19.
Rationalize denominators as needed.
The preceding example suggests the following table for finding the refer- ence angle u′ for any angle u between 0° and 360°.

592.2 Trigonometric Functions of Non-Acute Angles
Notice in Example 2 that the trigonometric function values of 210° cor- respond in absolute value to those of its reference angle 30°. The signs are different for the sine, cosine, secant, and cosecant functions because 210° is a quadrant III angle. These results suggest a shortcut for finding the trigonometric function values of a non-acute angle, using the reference angle.
In Example 2, the reference angle for 210° is 30°. Using the trigonometric function values of 30°, and choosing the correct signs for a quadrant III angle, we obtain the same results.
We determine the values of the trigonometric functions for any nonquadran- tal angle u as follows. Keep in mind that all function values are positive when the terminal side is in Quadrant I, the sine and cosecant are positive in Quadrant II, the tangent and cotangent are positive in Quadrant III, and the cosine and secant are positive in Quadrant IV. In other cases, the function values are negative.
Finding Trigonometric Function Values for Any Nonquadrantal Angle U�
Step 1 If u 7 360°, or if u 6 0°, then find a coterminal angle by adding or subtracting 360° as many times as needed to obtain an angle greater than 0° but less than 360°.
Step 2 Find the reference angle u′.
Step 3 Find the trigonometric function values for reference angle u′.
Step 4 Determine the correct signs for the values found in Step 3. (Use the table of signs given earlier in the text or the paragraph above, if necessary.) This gives the values of the trigonometric functions for angle u.
NOTE To avoid sign errors when finding the trigonometric function val- ues of an angle, sketch it in standard position. Include a reference triangle complete with appropriate values for x, y, and r as done in Figure 12.
EXAMPLE 3 Finding Trigonometric Function Values Using Reference Angles

(a) cos1-240°2 (b) tan 675° SOLUTION
(a) Because an angle of -240° is coterminal with an angle of
-240° + 360° = 120°,
the reference angle is 180° - 120° = 60°, as shown in Figure 13(a). The cosine is negative in quadrant II.

612.2 Trigonometric Functions of Non-Acute Angles
Determination of Angle Measures with Special Reference Angles The ideas discussed in this section can be used “in reverse” to find the measures of certain angles, given a trigonometric function value and an interval in which the angle must lie. We are most often interested in the interval 30°, 360°2.
EXAMPLE 6 Finding Angle Measures Given an Interval and a Function Value
Find all values of u, if u is in the interval 30°, 360°2 and cos u = - 222 . SOLUTION The value of cos u is negative, so u may lie in either quadrant II or III.
Because the absolute value of cos u is 222 , the reference angle u′ must be 45°. The two possible angles u are sketched in Figure 14.
180° - 45° = 135° Quadrant II angle u (from Figure 14 (a)) 180° + 45° = 225° Quadrant III angle u (from Figure 14 (b))

2.3 Approximations of Trigonometric Function Values
Calculator Approximations of Trigonometric Function Values We learned how to find exact function values for special angles and for angles having special reference angles earlier in this chapter. In this section we investigate how calculators provide approximations for function values of angles that do not sat- isfy these conditions. (Of course, they can also be used to find exact values such as cos 1-240°2 and tan 675°, as seen in Figure 15.)
■ Calculator Approximations of Trigonometric Function Values
■ Calculator Approximations of Angle Measures
■ An Application
CAUTION It is important to remember that when we are evaluating trig- onometric functions of angles given in degrees, the calculator must be in degree mode. An easy way to check this is to enter sin 90. If the displayed answer is 1, then the calculator is in degree mode.
Also remember that if the angle or the reference angle is not a special or quadrantal angle, then the value given by the calculator is an approximation. And even if the angle or reference angle is a special angle, the value given by the calculator will often be an approximation.
EXAMPLE 1 Finding Function Values with a Calculator
Approximate the value of each expression.
(a) sin 49° 12′ (b) sec 97.977° (c) 1
cot 51.4283° (d) sin1-246°2
SOLUTION See Figure 16. We give values to eight decimal places below.
(a) We may begin by converting 49° 12′ to decimal degrees.
49° 12′ = 49 12 60 ° = 49.2°
However, some calculators allow direct entry of degrees, minutes, and seconds. (The method of entry varies among models.) Entering either sin149° 12′2 or sin 49.2° gives the same approximation.
sin 49° 12′ = sin 49.2° ≈ 0.75699506
(b) There are no dedicated calculator keys for the secant, cosecant, and cotan- gent functions. However, we can use reciprocal identities to evaluate them. Recall that sec u = 1cos u for all angles u, where cos u ≠ 0. Therefore, we use the reciprocal of the cosine function to evaluate the secant function.
sec 97.977° = 1 cos 97.977°
≈ -7.20587921
(c) Use the reciprocal identity 1cot u = tan u to simplify the expression first.

652.3 Approximations of Trigonometric Function Values
Calculator Approximations of Angle Measures To find the measure of an angle having a certain trigonometric function value, calculators have three inverse functions (denoted sin−1 , cos−1 , and tan−1). If x is an appropriate num- ber, then sin−1 x, cos−1 x, or tan−1 x gives the measure of an angle whose sine, cosine, or tangent, respectively, is x. For applications in this chapter, these functions will return angles in quadrant I.

EXAMPLE 3 Finding Grade Resistance
When an automobile travels uphill or downhill on a highway, it experiences a force due to gravity. This force F in pounds is the grade resistance and is modeled by the equation
F = W sin u,
where u is the grade and W is the weight of the automobile. If the automo- bile is moving uphill, then u 7 0°; if downhill, then u 6 0°. See Figure 18. (Source: Mannering, F. and W. Kilareski, Principles of Highway Engineering and Traffic Analysis, Second Edition, John Wiley and Sons.)

Find an angle u in the interval 30°, 90°2 that satisfies each condition. (a) sin u = 0.96770915 (b) sec u = 1.0545829 SOLUTION
(a) Using degree mode and the inverse sine function, we find that an angle u having sine value 0.96770915 is 75.399995°. (There are infinitely many such angles, but the calculator gives only this one.)
u = sin-1 0.96770915 ≈ 75.399995°
See Figure 17.
(b) Use the identity cos u = 1sec u . If sec u = 1.0545829 , then
cos u = 1 1.0545829
.
Now, find u using the inverse cosine function. See Figure 17.

(c) Calculate F for u = 0° and u = 90°. Do these answers agree with intuition?
SOLUTION
(a) F = W sin u Given model for grade resistance F = 2500 sin 2.5° Substitute given values. F ≈ 110 lb Evaluate.
(b) F = W sin u = 5000 sin1-6.1°2 ≈ -530 lb F is negative because the truck is moving downhill.
(c) F = W sin u = W sin 0° = W102 = 0 lb F = W sin u = W sin 90° = W112 = W lb This agrees with intuition because if u = 0°, then there is level ground and gravity does not cause the vehicle to roll. If u were 90°, the road would be vertical and the full weight of the vehicle would be pulled downward by gravity, so F = W.

70. Find the grade resistance, to the nearest ten pounds, for a 2400-lb car traveling on a -2.4° downhill grade.

72. A 3000-lb car traveling uphill has a grade resistance of 150 lb. Find the angle of the grade to the nearest tenth of a degree.
73. A car traveling on a 2.7° uphill grade has a grade resistance of 120 lb. Determine the weight of the car to the nearest hundred pounds.
74. A car traveling on a -3° downhill grade has a grade resistance of -145 lb. Determine the weight of the car to the nearest hundred pounds.
75. Which has the greater grade resistance: a 2200-lb car on a 2° uphill grade or a 2000-lb car on a 2.2° uphill grade?

(a) How do sin u, tan u, and pu180 compare for small grades u?
(b) Highway grades are usually small. Give two approximations of the grade resis- tance F = W sin u that do not use the sine function.
(c) A stretch of highway has a 4-ft vertical rise for every 100 ft of horizontal run. Use an approximation from part (b) to estimate the grade resistance, to the near- est pound, for a 2000-lb car on this stretch of highway.
(d) Without evaluating a trigonometric function, estimate the grade resistance, to the nearest pound, for an 1800-lb car on a stretch of highway that has a 3.75° grade.
(Modeling) Design of Highway Curves When highway curves are designed, the outside of the curve is often slightly elevated or inclined above the inside of the curve. See the figure. This inclination is the superelevation. For safety reasons, it is important that both the curve’s radius and superelevation be correct for a given speed limit. If an automobile is traveling at velocity V (in feet per second), the safe radius R, in feet, for a curve with superelevation u is modeled by the formula
R = V 2
g1 ƒ + tan u2 , where ƒ and g are constants. (Source: Mannering, F. and W. Kilareski, Principles of Highway Engineering and Traffic Analysis, Second Edition, John Wiley and Sons.)
77. A roadway is being designed for automobiles traveling at 45 mph. If u = 3°, g = 32.2 , and ƒ = 0.14 , calculate R to the nearest foot. (Hint: 45 mph = 66 ft per sec)
78. Determine the radius of the curve, to the nearest foot, if the speed in Exercise 77 is increased to 70 mph.
79. How would increasing angle u affect the results? Verify your answer by repeating Exercises 77 and 78 with u = 4°.

80. Refer to Exercise 77 and use the same values for ƒ and g. A highway curve has radius R = 1150 ft and a superelevation of u = 2.1°. What should the speed limit (in miles per hour) be for this curve?
(Modeling) Speed of Light When a light ray travels from one medium, such as air, to another medium, such as water or glass, the speed of the light changes, and the light ray is bent, or refracted, at the boundary between the two media. (This is why objects under water appear to be in a different position from where they really are.) It can be shown in physics that these changes are related by Snell’s law
c1 c2
= sin u1 sin u2
,
where c1 is the speed of light in the first medium, c2 is the speed of light in the second medium, and u1 and u2 are the angles shown in the figure. In Exercises 81 and 82, assume that c1 = 3 * 108 m per sec.
81. Find the speed of light in the second medium for each of the following.
(a) u1 = 46° , u2 = 31° (b) u1 = 39° , u2 = 28°
82. Find u2 for each of the following values of u1 and c2 . Round to the nearest degree.

If this medium is more dense, light travels at a lesser speed, c2.

(Modeling) Braking Distance If aerodynamic resistance is ignored, the braking dis- tance D (in feet) for an automobile to change its velocity from V1 to V2 (feet per second) can be modeled using the following equation.
D = 1.051V1 2 - V2 22
64.41K1 + K2 + sin u2 K1 is a constant determined by the efficiency of the brakes and tires, K2 is a constant determined by the rolling resistance of the automobile, and u is the grade of the highway. (Source: Mannering, F. and W. Kilareski, Principles of Highway Engineering and Traffic Analysis, Second Edition, John Wiley and Sons.)
85. Compute the number of feet, to the nearest unit, required to slow a car from 55 mph to 30 mph while traveling uphill with a grade of u = 3.5°. Let K1 = 0.4 and K2 = 0.02. (Hint: Change miles per hour to feet per second.)
(Modeling) Fish’s View of the World The figure shows a fish’s view of the world above the surface of the water. (Source: Walker, J., “The Amateur Scientist,” Scientific American.) Suppose that a light ray comes from the horizon, enters the water, and strikes the fish’s eye.
83. Assume that this ray gives a value of 90° for angle u1 in the formula for Snell’s law. (In a practical situation, this angle would probably be a little less than 90°.) The speed of light in water is about 2.254 * 108 m per sec. Find angle u2 to the nearest tenth.
84. Refer to Exercise 83. Suppose an object is located at a true angle of 29.6° above the horizon. Find the apparent angle above the horizon to a fish.

86. Repeat Exercise 85 with u = -2°.
87. How is braking distance affected by grade u?
88. An automobile is traveling at 90 mph on a highway with a downhill grade of u = -3.5°. The driver sees a stalled truck in the road 200 ft away and immediately applies the brakes. Assuming that a collision cannot be avoided, how fast (in miles per hour, to the nearest unit) is the car traveling when it hits the truck? (Use the same values for K1 and K2 as in Exercise 85.)
(Modeling) Measuring Speed by Radar Any offset between a stationary radar gun and a moving target creates a “cosine effect” that reduces the radar read- ing by the cosine of the angle between the gun and the vehicle. That is, the radar speed reading is the product of the actual speed and the cosine of the angle. (Source: Fischetti, M., “Working Knowledge,” Scientific American.)
89. Find the radar readings, to the nearest unit, for Auto A and Auto B shown in the figure.

(Modeling) Length of a Sag Curve When a highway goes downhill and then uphill, it has a sag curve. Sag curves are designed so that at night, headlights shine sufficiently far down the road to allow a safe stopping distance. See the figure. S and L are in feet.
L
S h
u1 u2
a
The minimum length L of a sag curve is determined by the height h of the car’s head- lights above the pavement, the downhill grade u1 6 0°, the uphill grade u2 7 0°, and the safe stopping distance S for a given speed limit. In addition, L is dependent on the vertical alignment of the headlights. Headlights are usually pointed upward at a slight angle a above the horizontal of the car. Using these quantities, for a 55 mph speed limit, L can be modeled by the formula
L = 1u2 - u12S2
2001h + S tan a2 , where S 6 L. (Source: Mannering, F. and W. Kilareski, Principles of Highway Engineer- ing and Traffic Analysis, Second Edition, John Wiley and Sons.)

2.4 Solutions and Applications of Right Triangles
Historical Background The beginnings of trigonometry can be traced back to antiquity. Figure 19 shows the Babylonian tablet Plimpton 322, which provides a table of secant values. The Greek mathematicians Hipparchus and Claudius Ptolemy developed a table of chords, which gives values of sines of angles between 0° and 90° in increments of 15 minutes. Until the advent of scien- tific calculators in the late 20th century, tables were used to find function values that we now obtain with the stroke of a key.
Applications of spherical trigonometry accompanied the study of astronomy for these ancient civilizations. Until the mid-20th century, spherical trigonometry was studied in undergraduate courses. See Figure 20.
An introduction to applications of the plane trigonometry studied in this text involves applying the ratios to sides of objects that take the shape of right triangles.

Significant Digits A number that represents the result of counting, or a number that results from theoretical work and is not the result of measurement, is an exact number. There are 50 states in the United States. In this statement, 50 is an exact number.
Most values obtained for trigonometric applications are measured values that are not exact. Suppose we quickly measure a room as 15 ft by 18 ft. See Figure 21. To calculate the length of a diagonal of the room, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.
d2 = 152 + 182 Pythagorean theorem d2 = 549 Apply the exponents and add. d = 2549 Square root property;
Choose the positive root. d ≈ 23.430749
Should this answer be given as the length of the diagonal of the room? Of course not. The number 23.430749 con- tains six decimal places, while the original data of 15 ft and 18 ft are accurate only to the nearest foot. In practice, the results of a calculation can be no more accurate than the least accurate number in the calculation. Thus, we should indicate that the diagonal of the 15-by-18-ft room is approximately 23 ft.

732.4 Solutions and Applications of Right Triangles
If a wall measured to the nearest foot is 18 ft long, this actually means that the wall has length between 17.5 ft and 18.5 ft. If the wall is measured more accu- rately as 18.3 ft long, then its length is really between 18.25 ft and 18.35 ft. The results of physical measurement are only approximately accurate and depend on the precision of the measuring instrument as well as the aptness of the observer. The digits obtained by actual measurement are significant digits. The measure- ment 18 ft is said to have two significant digits; 18.3 ft has three significant digits.
In the following numbers, the significant digits are identified in color.
408 21.5 18.00 6.700 0.0025 0.09810 7300
Notice the following.
18.00 has four significant digits. The zeros in this number represent mea- sured digits accurate to the nearest hundredth.
The number 0.0025 has only two significant digits, 2 and 5, because the zeros here are used only to locate the decimal point.
The number 7300 causes some confusion because it is impossible to determine whether the zeros are measured values. The number 7300 may have two, three, or four significant digits. When presented with this situation, we assume that the zeros are not significant, unless the context of the problem indicates otherwise.
To determine the number of significant digits for answers in applications of angle measure, use the following table.
To perform calculations with measured numbers, start by identifying the number with the least number of significant digits. Round the final answer to the same number of significant digits as this number. Remember that the answer is no more accurate than the least accurate number in the calculation.

Solving Triangles To solve a triangle means to find the measures of all the angles and sides of the triangle. As shown in Figure 22, we use a to represent the length of the side opposite angle A, b for the length of the side opposite angle B, and so on. In a right triangle, the letter c is reserved for the hypotenuse.

74 CHAPTER 2 Acute Angles and Right Triangles
LOOKING AHEAD TO CALCULUS The derivatives of the parametric equations x = ƒ1t2 and y = g1t2 often represent the rate of change of physical
quantities, such as velocities. When x
and y are related by an equation, the
derivatives are related rates because a change in one causes a related change
in the other. Determining these rates
in calculus often requires solving a
right triangle.
NOTE In Example 1, we could have found the measure of angle B first and then used the trigonometric function values of B to find the lengths of the unknown sides. A right triangle can usually be solved in several ways, each producing the correct answer.
To maintain accuracy, always use given information as much as pos- sible, and avoid rounding in intermediate steps.

EXAMPLE 1 Solving a Right Triangle Given an Angle and a Side
Solve right triangle ABC, if A = 34° 30′ and c = 12.7 in. SOLUTION To solve the triangle, find the measures of the remaining sides and angles. See Figure 23. To find the value of a, use a trigonometric function involving the known values of angle A and side c. Because the sine of angle A is given by the quotient of the side opposite A and the hypotenuse, use sin A.
sin A = a c
sin A = side oppositehypotenuse
sin 34° 30′ = a 12.7
A = 34° 30′, c = 12.7
a = 12.7 sin 34° 30′ Multiply by 12.7 and rewrite. a = 12.7 sin 34.5° Convert to decimal degrees. a ≈ 12.710.566406242 Use a calculator. a ≈ 7.19 in. Three significant digits
Assuming that 34° 30′ is given to the nearest ten minutes, we rounded the answer to three significant digits.
To find the value of b, we could substitute the value of a just calculated and the given value of c in the Pythagorean theorem. It is better, however, to use the information given in the problem rather than a result just calculated. If an error is made in finding a, then b also would be incorrect. And, rounding more than once may cause the result to be less accurate. To find b, use cos A.
cos A = b c
cos A = side adjacenthypotenuse
cos 34° 30′ = b 12.7
A = 34° 30′, c = 12.7
b = 12.7 cos 34° 30′ Multiply by 12.7 and rewrite. b ≈ 10.5 in. Three significant digits
Once b is found, the Pythagorean theorem can be used to verify the results. All that remains to solve triangle ABC is to find the measure of angle B.
A + B = 90° A and B are complementary angles. 34° 30′ + B = 90° A = 34° 30′
B = 89° 60′ - 34° 30′ Rewrite 90°. Subtract 34° 30′. B = 55° 30′ Subtract degrees and minutes separately.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 25.

EXAMPLE 2 Solving a Right Triangle Given Two Sides
Solve right triangle ABC, if a = 29.43 cm and c = 53.58 cm. SOLUTION We draw a sketch showing the given information, as in Figure 24. One way to begin is to find angle A using the sine function.
sin A = a c
sin A = side oppositehypotenuse
sin A = 29.43 53.58
a = 29.43, c = 53.58
sin A ≈ 0.5492721165 Use a calculator.
A ≈ sin-110.54927211652 Use the inverse sine function. A ≈ 33.32° Four significant digits
A ≈ 33° 19′ 33.32° = 33° + 0.32160′2 The measure of B is approximately
90° - 33° 19′ = 56° 41′. 90° = 89° 60′
We now find b from the Pythagorean theorem.
a2 + b2 = c2 Pythagorean theorem
29.432 + b2 = 53.582 a = 29.43, c = 53.58 b2 = 53.582 - 29.432 Subtract 29.432.
b = 22004.6915 Simplify on the right; square root property b ≈ 44.77 cm
■✔ Now Try Exercise 35. Choose the
positive square root.
CAUTION Be careful when interpreting the angle of depression. Both the angle of elevation and the angle of depression are measured between the line of sight and a horizontal line.
Angles of Elevation or Depression In applications of right triangles, the angle of elevation from point X to point Y (above X) is the acute angle formed by ray XY and a horizontal ray with endpoint at X. See Figure 25(a). The angle of depression from point X to point Y (below X) is the acute angle formed by ray XY and a horizontal ray with endpoint X. See Figure 25(b).

At a point A, 123 ft from the base of a flagpole, the angle of elevation to the top of the flagpole is 26° 40′. Find the height of the flagpole.
SOLUTION
Step 1 See Figure 26. The length of the side adjacent to A is known, and the length of the side opposite A must be found. We will call it a.
Step 2 The tangent ratio involves the given values. Write an equation.

SOLUTION As shown in Figure 27, the angle of depression is measured from a horizontal line down to the base of the lighthouse. The angle of depression and angle B, in the right triangle shown, are alternate interior angles whose measures are equal. We use the tangent ratio to solve for angle B.

Step 3 Solve the equation, and check that the answer makes sense.
To solve applied trigonometry problems, follow the same procedure as solv- ing a triangle. Drawing a sketch and labeling it correctly in Step 1 is crucial.

61. Height of Mt. Everest The highest mountain peak in the world is Mt. Everest, located in the Himalayas. The height of this enormous mountain was determined in 1856 by surveyors using trigonometry long before it was first climbed in 1953. This difficult measurement had to be done from a great distance. At an altitude of 14,545 ft on a different mountain, the straight-line distance to the peak of Mt. Everest is 27.0134 mi and its angle of elevation is u = 5.82°.

2.5 Further Applications of Right Triangles
Historical Background Johann Müller, known as Regiomontanus (see Figure 28), was a fifteenth-century German astronomer whose best known book is On Triangles of Every Kind. He used the recently-invented printing process of Gutenberg to promote his research. In his excellent book Trigonometric Delights *, Eli Maor writes:
Regiomontanus was the first publisher of mathematical and astronomi- cal books for commercial use. In 1474 he printed his Ephemerides, tables listing the position of the sun, moon, and planets for each day from 1475 to 1506. This work brought him great acclaim; Christopher Columbus had a copy of it on his fourth voyage to the New World and used it to predict the famous lunar eclipse of February 29, 1504. The hostile natives had for some time refused Columbus’s men food and water, and he warned them that God would punish them and take away the moon’s light. His admo- nition was at first ridiculed, but when at the appointed hour the eclipse began, the terrified natives immediately repented and fell into submission.
■ Historical Background ■ Bearing ■ Further Applications
Expressing Bearing (Method 1)
When a single angle is given, it is understood that bearing is measured in a clockwise direction from due north.
Several sample bearings using Method 1 are shown in Figure 29.

We introduce two methods of measuring bearing.

832.5 Further Applications of Right Triangles
EXAMPLE 1 Solving a Problem Involving Bearing (Method 1)
Radar stations A and B are on an east-west line, 3.7 km apart. Station A detects a plane at C, on a bearing of 61°. Station B simultaneously detects the same plane, on a bearing of 331°. Find the distance from A to C.
SOLUTION Begin with a sketch showing the given information. See Figure 30. A line drawn due north is perpendicular to an east-west line, so right angles are formed at A and B. Angles CBA and CAB can be found as follows.
∠CBA = 331° - 270° = 61° and ∠CAB = 90° - 61° = 29° A right triangle is formed. The distance from A to C, denoted b in the figure, can be found using the cosine function for angle CAB.
cos 29° = b 3.7
Cosine ratio
b = 3.7 cos 29° Multiply by 3.7 and rewrite. b ≈ 3.2 km Two significant digits
■✔ Now Try Exercise 23.
Expressing Bearing (Method 2)
Start with a north-south line and use an acute angle to show the direction, either east or west, from this line.
Figure 31 shows several sample bearings using this method. Either N or S always comes first, followed by an acute angle, and then E or W.

EXAMPLE 2 Solving a Problem Involving Bearing (Method 2)
A ship leaves port and sails on a bearing of N 47° E for 3.5 hr. It then turns and sails on a bearing of S 43° E for 4.0 hr. If the ship’s rate is 22 knots (nautical miles per hour), find the distance that the ship is from port.
SOLUTION Draw and label a sketch as in Figure 32. Choose a point C on a bearing of N 47° E from port at point A. Then choose a point B on a bearing of S 43° E from point C. Because north-south lines are parallel, angle ACD measures 47° by alternate inte- rior angles. The measure of angle ACB is

Use the formula relating distance, rate, and time to find the distances in Figure 32 from A to C and from C to B.
b = 22 * 3.5 = 77 nautical mi Distance = rate * time
a = 22 * 4.0 = 88 nautical mi
Now find c, the distance from port at point A to the ship at point B.
a2 + b2 = c2 Pythagorean theorem 882 + 772 = c2 a = 88, b = 77
c = 2882 + 772 If a2 + b2 = c2 and c 7 0, then c = 2a2 + b2.
c ≈ 120 nautical mi Two significant digits ■✔ Now Try Exercise 29.

The subtense bar method is a method that surveyors use to determine a small distance d between two points P and Q. The subtense bar with length b is cen- tered at Q and situated perpendicular to the line of sight between P and Q. See Figure 33. Angle u is measured, and then the distance d can be determined.

EXAMPLE 4 Solving a Problem Involving Angles of Elevation
Francisco needs to know the height of a tree. From a given point on the ground, he finds that the angle of elevation to the top of the tree is 36.7°. He then moves back 50 ft. From the second point, the angle of elevation to the top of the tree is 22.2°. See Figure 34. Find the height of the tree to the nearest foot.
Figure 34

36.7° A C
B h
D x
ALGEBRAIC SOLUTION
Figure 34 shows two unknowns: x, the distance from the center of the trunk of the tree to the point where the first observation was made, and h, the height of the tree. See Figure 35 in the Graphing Calculator Solution. Because nothing is given about the length of the hypotenuse of either triangle ABC or triangle BCD, we use a ratio that does not involve the hypotenuse — namely, the tangent.
In triangle ABC, tan 36.7° = h x or h = x tan 36.7°.
In triangle BCD, tan 22.2° = h 50 + x or h = 150 + x2 tan 22.2°.
Each expression equals h, so the expressions must be equal.
x tan 36.7° = 150 + x2 tan 22.2° Equate expressions for h.
x tan 36.7° = 50 tan 22.2° + x tan 22.2° Distributive property
x tan 36.7° - x tan 22.2° = 50 tan 22.2° Write the x-terms on one side.
x1tan 36.7° - tan 22.2°2 = 50 tan 22.2° Factor out x.
x = 50 tan 22.2° tan 36.7° - tan 22.2°
Divide by the coefficient of x.
We saw above that h = x tan 36.7°. Substitute for x.
h = a 50 tan 22.2° tan 36.7° - tan 22.2° b tan 36.7°
Use a calculator.
tan 36.7° = 0.74537703 and tan 22.2° = 0.40809244
Thus,
tan 36.7° - tan 22.2° = 0.74537703 - 0.40809244 = 0.33728459
and h = a 5010.408092442 0.33728459
b 0.74537703 ≈ 45. To the nearest foot, the height of the tree is 45 ft.
GRAPHING CALCULATOR SOLUTION*
In Figure 35, we have superimposed Figure 34 on coordinate axes with the origin at D. By definition, the tangent of the angle between the x-axis and the graph of a line with equation y = mx + b is the slope of the line, m. For line DB, m = tan 22.2°. Because b equals 0, the equation of line DB is
y1 = 1tan 22.2°2x. The equation of line AB is
y2 = 1tan 36.7°2x + b. Because b ≠ 0 here, we use the point A150, 02 and the point-slope form to find the equation.
y2 - y0 = m1x - x02 Point-slope form y2 - 0 = m1x - 502 x0 = 50, y0 = 0
y2 = tan 36.7°1x - 502 Lines y1 and y2 are graphed in Figure 36. The y-coordinate of the point of intersec- tion of the graphs gives the length of BC, or h. Thus, h ≈ 45 .

42. (Modeling) Distance of a Shot Put A shot-putter trying to improve performance may wonder whether there is an optimal angle to aim for, or whether the velocity (speed) at which the ball is thrown is more important. The figure shows the path of a steel ball thrown by a shot-putter. The distance D depends on initial velocity v, height h, and angle u when the ball is released.

One model developed for this situation gives D as
D = v2 sin u cos u + v cos u 21v sin u22 + 64h

(a) To see how angle u affects distance D, let v = 44 ft per sec and h = 7 ft. Calcu- late D, to the nearest hundredth, for u = 40°, 42°, and 45°. How does distance D change as u increases?

43. (Modeling) Highway Curves A basic highway curve connecting two straight sections of road may be circular. In the figure, the points P and S mark the beginning and end of the curve. Let Q be the point of intersection where the two straight sections of highway leading into the curve would meet if extended. The radius of the curve is R, and the cen- tral angle u denotes how many degrees the curve turns. (Source: Mannering, F. and W. Kilareski, Principles of Highway Engineering and Traffic Analysis, Second Edition, John Wiley and Sons.)
(a) If R = 965 ft and u = 37°, find the distance d between P and Q. (b) Find an expression in terms of R and u for the distance between points M and N.
44. (Modeling) Stopping Distance on a Curve Refer to Exercise 43. When an automobile travels along a cir- cular curve, objects like trees and buildings situated on the inside of the curve can obstruct the driver’s vision. These obstructions prevent the driver from seeing sufficiently far down the highway to ensure a safe
stopping distance. In the figure, the minimum distance d that should be cleared on the inside of the highway is modeled by the equation
d = R a1 - cos u 2 b .
(Source: Mannering, F. and W. Kilareski, Principles of Highway Engineering and Traffic Analysis, Second Edition, John Wiley and Sons.)
(a) It can be shown that if u is measured in degrees, then u ≈ 57.3SR , where S is the safe stopping distance for the given speed limit. Compute d to the nearest foot for a 55 mph speed limit if S = 336 ft and R = 600 ft.
(b) Compute d to the nearest foot for a 65 mph speed limit given S = 485 ft and R = 600 ft.
(c) How does the speed limit affect the amount of land that should be cleared on the inside of the curve?

3.1 Radian Measure
Radian Measure We have seen that angles can be measured in degrees. In more theoretical work in mathematics, radian measure of angles is preferred. Radian measure enables us to treat the trigonometric functions as functions with domains of real numbers, rather than angles.
Figure 1 shows an angle u in standard position, along with a circle of radius r. The vertex of u is at the center of the circle. Because angle u intercepts an arc on the circle equal in length to the radius of the circle, we say that angle u has a measure of 1 radian.

Radian
An angle with its vertex at the center of a circle that intercepts an arc on the circle equal in length to the radius of the circle has a measure of 1 radian.
It follows that an angle of measure 2 radians intercepts an arc equal in length to twice the radius of the circle, an angle of measure 12 radian intercepts an arc equal in length to half the radius of the circle, and so on. In general, if U is a central angle of a circle of radius r, and U intercepts an arc of length s, then the radian measure of U is sr . See Figure 2.

The ratio sr is a pure number, where s and r are expressed in the same units. Thus, “radians” is not a unit of measure like feet or centimeters.
Conversions between Degrees and Radians The circumference of a circle—the distance around the circle—is given by C = 2pr, where r is the radius of the circle. The formula C = 2pr shows that the radius can be measured off 2p times around a circle. Therefore, an angle of 360°, which corresponds to a complete circle, intercepts an arc equal in length to 2p times the radius of the circle. Thus, an angle of 360° has a measure of 2p radians.
360° = 2P radians
An angle of 180° is half the size of an angle of 360°, so an angle of 180° has half the radian measure of an angle of 360°.

102 CHAPTER 3 Radian Measure and the Unit Circle
One of the most important facts to remember when working with angles and their measures is summarized in the following statement.
NOTE Another way to convert a radian measure that is a rational multiple of p, such as 9p4 , to degrees is to substitute 180° for p. In Example 2(a), doing this would give the following.

Agreement on Angle Measurement Units
If no unit of angle measure is specified, then the angle is understood to be measured in radians.
For example, Figure 3(a) shows an angle of 30°, and Figure 3(b) shows an angle of 30 (which means 30 radians). An angle with measure 30 radians is coterminal with an angle of approximately 279°.

LOOKING AHEAD TO CALCULUS In calculus, radian measure is much
easier to work with than degree mea-
sure. If x is measured in radians, then
the derivative of ƒ1x2 = sin x is ƒ′1x2 = cos x.
However, if x is measured in degrees,
then the derivative of ƒ1x2 = sin x is ƒ′1x2 = p
180 cos x.
Trigonometric Function Values of Angles in Radians Trigonometric function values for angles measured in radians can be found by first converting radian measure to degrees. (Try to skip this intermediate step as soon as possible, however, and find the function values directly from radian measure.)

(b) In a rapid-transit rail system, the maximum grade allowed between two stations is 3.5%. Express this angle in degrees and in radians.
Arc Length on a Circle The formula for finding the length of an arc of a circle follows directly from the definition of an angle u in radians, where u = sr .
In Figure 5, we see that angle QOP has measure 1 radian and intercepts an arc of length r on the circle. We also see that angle ROT has measure u radians and intercepts an arc of length s on the circle. From plane geometry, we know that the lengths of the arcs are proportional to the measures of their central angles.
s r = u
1 Set up a proportion.
Multiplying each side by r gives
s = r u. Solve for s.

1073.2 Applications of Radian Measure
CAUTION When the formula s = r U is applied, the value of U MUST be expressed in radians, not degrees.
EXAMPLE 2 Finding the Distance between Two Cities
Latitude gives the measure of a central angle with vertex at Earth’s center whose initial side goes through the equator and whose terminal side goes through the given location. Reno, Nevada, is approximately due north of Los Angeles. The latitude of Reno is 40° N, and that of Los Angeles is 34° N. (The N in 34° N means north of the equator.) The radius of Earth is 6400 km. Find the north-south distance between the two cities.
SOLUTION As shown in Figure 7, the central angle between Reno and Los Angeles is
40° - 34° = 6°.
The distance between the two cities can be found using the formula s = r u, after 6° is converted to radians.
6° = 6 a p 180 b = p

A rope is being wound around a drum with radius 0.8725 ft. (See Figure 8.) How much rope will be wound around the drum if the drum is rotated through an angle of 39.72°?
SOLUTION The length of rope wound around the drum is the arc length for a circle of radius 0.8725 ft and a central angle of 39.72°. Use the formula s = r u, with the angle converted to radian measure. The length of the rope wound around the drum is approximated by s.

EXAMPLE 4 Finding an Angle Measure Using s = r U
Two gears are adjusted so that the smaller gear drives the larger one, as shown in Figure 9. If the smaller gear rotates through an angle of 225°, through how many degrees will the larger gear rotate?
SOLUTION First find the radian measure of the angle of rotation for the smaller gear, and then find the arc length on the smaller gear. This arc length will correspond to the arc length of the motion of the larger gear. Because
225° = 5p4 radians, for the smaller gear we have arc length
s = r u = 2.5 a 5p 4 b = 12.5p
4 = 25p
8 cm.
The tips of the two mating gear teeth must move at the same linear speed, or the teeth will break. So we must have “equal arc lengths in equal times.” An arc with this length s on the larger gear corresponds to an angle measure u, in radians, where s = r u.
s = r u Arc length formula

If a central angle is very small, there is little dif- ference in length between an arc and the inscribed chord. See the figure. Approximate each of the fol- lowing lengths by finding the necessary arc length. (Note: When a central angle intercepts an arc, the arc is said to subtend the angle.)

Find the area of the region cleaned to the nearest tenth.
63. Circular Railroad Curves In the United States, circular railroad curves are desig- nated by the degree of curvature, the central angle subtended by a chord of 100 ft. Suppose a portion of track has curvature 42.0°. (Source: Hay, W., Railroad Engineering, John Wiley and Sons.)

65. Area of a Lot A frequent problem in surveying city lots and rural lands adjacent to curves of highways and rail- ways is that of finding the area when one or more of the boundary lines is the arc of a circle. Find the area (to two significant digits) of the lot shown in the figure. (Source: Anderson, J. and E. Michael, Introduction to Surveying, McGraw-Hill.)
66. Nautical Miles Nautical miles are used by ships and airplanes. They are different from statute miles, where 1 mi = 5280 ft. A nautical mile is defined to be the arc length along the equator intercepted by a central angle AOB of 1′, as illustrated in the figure. If the equatorial radius of Earth is 3963 mi, use the arc length formula to approximate the number of statute miles in 1 nautical mile. Round the answer to two decimal places.
67. Circumference of Earth The first accurate estimate of the distance around Earth was done by the Greek astronomer Eratosthenes (276–195 b.c.), who noted that the noontime position of the sun at the summer solstice in the city of Syene differed by 7° 12′ from its noontime position in the city of Alexandria. (See the figure.) The dis- tance between these two cities is 496 mi. Use the arc length formula to estimate the radius of Earth. Then find the circumference of Earth.

68. Longitude Longitude is the angular distance (expressed in degrees) East or West of the prime meridian, which goes from the North Pole to the South Pole through Greenwich, England. Arcs of 1° longitude are 110 km apart at the equator, and therefore 15° arcs subtend 15(110) km, or 1650 km, at the equator.

(Modeling) Measuring Paper Curl Manufacturers of paper determine its quality by its curl. The curl of a sheet of paper is measured by holding it at the center of one edge and comparing the arc formed by the free end to arcs on a chart lying flat on a table. Each arc in the chart corresponds to a number d that gives the depth of the arc. See the figure. (Source: Tabakovic, H., J. Paullet, and R.

3.3 The Unit Circle and Circular Functions
We have defined the six trigonometric functions in such a way that the domain of each function was a set of angles in standard position. These angles can be measured in degrees or in radians. In advanced courses, such as calculus, it is necessary to modify the trigonometric functions so that their domains consist of real numbers rather than angles. We do this by using the relationship between an angle u and an arc of length s on a circle.

with a Given Circular Function Value
■ Applications of Circular Functions
■ Function Values as Lengths of Line Segments
Circular Functions In Figure 12, we start at the point 11, 02 and measure an arc of length s along the circle. If s 7 0, then the arc is measured in a counter- clockwise direction, and if s 6 0, then the direction is clockwise. (If s = 0, then no arc is measured.) Let the endpoint of this arc be at the point 1x, y2. The circle in Figure 12 is the unit circle—it has center at the origin and radius 1 unit (hence the name unit circle). Recall from algebra that the equation of this circle is
x2 + y2 = 1. The unit circle
The radian measure of u is related to the arc length s. For u measured in radians and for r and s measured in the same linear units, we know that
s = r u.
When the radius has measure 1 unit, the formula s = r u becomes s = u. Thus, the trigonometric functions of angle u in radians found by choosing a point 1x, y2 on the unit circle can be rewritten as functions of the arc length s, a real number. When interpreted this way, they are called circular functions.

csc s = 1 y 1 y 3 0 2 sec s = 1
x 1x 3 0 2 cot s = x
y 1 y 3 0 2
The unit circle is symmetric with respect to the x-axis, the y-axis, and the origin. If a point 1a, b2 lies on the unit circle, so do 1a, -b2, 1-a, b2, and 1-a, -b2. Furthermore, each of these points has a reference arc of equal mag- nitude. For a point on the unit circle, its reference arc is the shortest arc from the point itself to the nearest point on the x-axis. (This concept is analogous to the reference angle concept.) Using the concept of symmetry makes determining sines and cosines of the real numbers identified in Figure 13* a relatively simple procedure if we know the coordinates of the points labeled in quadrant I.
*The authors thank Professor Marvel Townsend of the University of Florida for her suggestion to include Figure 13.
LOOKING AHEAD TO CALCULUS If you plan to study calculus, you
must become very familiar with radian
measure. In calculus, the trigonometric
or circular functions are always under-
stood to have real number domains.

For example, the quadrant I real number p3 is associated with the point Q12 , 232 R on the unit circle. Therefore, we can use symmetry to identify the coor- dinates of points having p3 as reference arc.

NOTE Because cos s = x and sin s = y, we can replace x and y in the equation of the unit circle x2 + y2 = 1 and obtain the following.
cos2 s + sin2 s = 1 Pythagorean identity
The ordered pair 1x, y2 represents a point on the unit circle, and therefore -1 … x … 1 and -1 … y … 1, −1 " cos s " 1 and −1 " sin s " 1.
For any value of s, both sin s and cos s exist, so the domain of these functions is the set of all real numbers.

118 CHAPTER 3 Radian Measure and the Unit Circle
For tan s, defined as y x , x must not equal 0. The only way x can equal 0 is
when the arc length s is p2 , - p 2 ,
3p 2 , -
3p 2 , and so on. To avoid a 0 denominator,
the domain of the tangent function must be restricted to those values of s that satisfy
s 3 12n + 1 2 P 2
, where n is any integer.
The definition of secant also has x in the denominator, so the domain of secant is the same as the domain of tangent. Both cotangent and cosecant are defined with a denominator of y. To guarantee that y ≠ 0, the domain of these functions must be the set of all values of s that satisfy
s 3 nP, where n is any integer.
Domains of the Circular Functions
The domains of the circular functions are as follows.
Sine and Cosine Functions: 1−H, H 2 Tangent and Secant Functions:5s∣ s 3 12n + 1 2 P
2 , where n is any integer6
Cotangent and Cosecant Functions:5s∣ s 3 nP, where n is any integer6 Values of the Circular Functions The circular functions of real numbers
correspond to the trigonometric functions of angles measured in radians. Let us assume that angle u is in standard position, superimposed on the unit circle. See Figure 14. Suppose that u is the radian measure of this angle. Using the arc length formula
s = r u with r = 1, we have s = u.
Thus, the length of the intercepted arc is the real number that corresponds to the radian measure of u. We use the trigonometric function definitions to obtain the following.
sin u = y r
= y 1
= y = sin s, cos u = x r
= x 1
= x = cos s, and so on.
As shown here, the trigonometric functions and the circular functions lead to the same function values, provided that we think of the angles as being in radian measure. This leads to the following important result.

Evaluating a Circular Function
Circular function values of real numbers are obtained in the same manner as trigonometric function values of angles measured in radians. This applies both to methods of finding exact values (such as reference angle analysis) and to calculator approximations. Calculators must be in radian mode when they are used to find circular function values.

SOLUTION Evaluating a circular function at
the real number 3p 2 is equivalent to evaluating it
at 3p 2 radians. An angle of
3p 2 radians intersects
the unit circle at the point 10, -12, as shown in Figure 15. Because
sin s = y, cos s = x, and tan s = y x
,
it follows that
sin 3p 2

This is how the TI-84 Plus calculator displays the results of Example 3, fixed to four decimal places.
CAUTION Remember, when used to find a circular function value of a real number, a calculator must be in radian mode.
Determining a Number with a Given Circular Function Value We can reverse the process of Example 3 and use a calculator to determine an angle measure, given a trigonometric function value of the angle. Remember that the keys marked sin−1, cos−1, and tan−1 do not represent reciprocal functions. They enable us to find inverse function values.
For reasons explained in a later chapter, the following statements are true.
For all x in 3-1, 14, a calculator in radian mode returns a single value in C - p2 , p2 D for sin-1 x . For all x in 3-1, 14, a calculator in radian mode returns a single value in 30, p4 for cos-1 x . For all real numbers x, a calculator in radian mode returns a single value in A - p2 , p2 B for tan-1 x .

(a) Because we are given a cosine value and want to determine the real number in 30, p2 4 that has this cosine value, we use the inverse cosine function of a calculator. With the calculator in radian mode, we find s as follows.

EXAMPLE 5 Modeling the Angle of Elevation of the Sun
The angle of elevation u of the sun in the sky at any latitude L is calculated with the formula
sin u = cos D cos L cos v + sin D sin L,
where u = 0 corresponds to sunrise and u = p2 occurs if the sun is directly over- head. The Greek letter v (lowercase omega) is the number of radians that Earth has rotated through since noon, when v = 0. D is the declination of the sun, which varies because Earth is tilted on its axis. (Source: Winter, C., R. Sizmann, and L. L. Vant-Hull, Editors, Solar Power Plants, Springer-Verlag.)
Sacramento, California, has latitude L = 38.5°, or 0.6720 radian. Find the angle of elevation u of the sun at 3 p.m. on February 29, 2012, where at that time D ≈ -0.1425 and v ≈ 0.7854.
SOLUTION Use the given formula for sin u.
sin u = cos D cos L cos v + sin D sin L sin u = cos1-0.14252 cos10.67202 cos10.78542 + sin1-0.14252 sin10.67202
Let D = -0.1425, L = 0.6720, and v = 0.7854. sin u ≈ 0.4593426188

This screen supports the result in Example 4(b) with calculator approximations.
Function Values as Lengths of Line Segments The diagram shown in Figure 18 illustrates a correspondence that ties together the right triangle ratio definitions of the trigonometric functions and the unit circle interpretation. The arc SR is the first-quadrant portion of the unit circle, and the standard-position angle POQ is designated u. By definition, the coordinates of P are 1cos u, sin u2. The six trigonometric functions of u can be interpreted as lengths of line seg- ments found in Figure 18.

1273.4 Linear and Angular Speed
3.4 Linear and Angular Speed
Linear Speed There are situations when we need to know how fast a point on a circular disk is moving or how fast the central angle of such a disk is changing. Some examples occur with machinery involving gears or pulleys or the speed of a car around a curved portion of highway.
Suppose that point P moves at a constant speed along a circle of radius r and center O. See Figure 20. The measure of how fast the position of P is changing is the linear speed. If v represents linear speed, then
speed = distance time
, or v = s t
,
where s is the length of the arc traced by point P at time t. (This formula is just a restatement of r = dt with s as distance, v as rate (speed), and t as time.)
■ Linear Speed ■ Angular Speed

P moves at a constant speed along the circle.
Figure 20
Angular Speed Refer to Figure 20. As point P in the figure moves along the circle, ray OP rotates around the origin. Because ray OP is the terminal side of angle POB, the measure of the angle changes as P moves along the circle. The measure of how fast angle POB is changing is its angular speed. Angular speed, symbolized v, is given as
V = U
t , where U is in radians.
Here u is the measure of angle POB at time t. As with earlier formulas in this chapter, U must be measured in radians, with V expressed in radians per unit of time.
The length s of the arc intercepted on a circle of radius r by a central angle of measure u radians is s = r u. Using this formula, the formula for linear speed, v = st , can be written in several useful forms.
v = s t
Formula for linear speed
v = r u t
s = r u
v = r # u t
abc = a # bc v = rv v = ut
As an example of linear and angular speeds, consider the following. The human joint that can be flexed the fastest is the wrist, which can rotate through 90°, or p 2 radians, in 0.045 sec while holding a tennis racket. The angular speed of a human wrist swinging a tennis racket is
v = u t
Formula for angular speed
v = p 2

If the radius (distance) from the tip of the racket to the wrist joint is 2 ft, then the speed at the tip of the racket is
v = rv Formula for linear speed v ≈ 21352 Let r = 2 and v = 35. v = 70 ft per sec, or about 48 mph. Use a calculator.
In a tennis serve the arm rotates at the shoulder, so the final speed of the racket is considerably greater. (Source: Cooper, J. and R. Glassow, Kinesiology, Second Edition, C.V. Mosby.)

(a) Find the angle generated by P in 6 sec.
(b) Find the distance traveled by P along the circle in 6 sec.
(c) Find the linear speed of P in centimeters per second.
SOLUTION
(a) Solve for u in the angular speed formula v = ut , and substitute the known quantities v = p18 radian per sec and t = 6 sec.
u = vt Angular speed formula solved for u
u = p 18

1293.4 Linear and Angular Speed
SOLUTION
(a) The angular speed 80 revolutions per min can be converted to radians per second using the following facts.
1 revolution = 2p radians and 1 min = 60 sec
We multiply by the corresponding unit fractions. Here, just as with the unit circle, the word unit means 1, so multiplying by a unit fraction is equivalent to multiplying by 1. We divide out common units in the same way that we divide out common factors.
v = 80 revolutions 1 min
# 2p radians 1 revolution
# 1 min 60 sec
v = 160p radians 60 sec
Multiply. Divide out common units.
v = 8p 3

(b) The linear speed v of the belt will be the same as that of a point on the cir- cumference of the pulley.

■✔ Now Try Exercise 47.
EXAMPLE 3 Finding Linear Speed and Distance Traveled by a Satellite
A satellite traveling in a circular orbit 1600 km above the surface of Earth takes 2 hr to make an orbit. The radius of Earth is approximately 6400 km. See Figure 22.
(a) Approximate the linear speed of the satellite in kilometers per hour.
(b) Approximate the distance the satellite travels in 4.5 hr.
SOLUTION
(a) The distance of the satellite from the center of Earth is approximately
r = 1600 + 6400 = 8000 km.
The angular speed 1 orbit per 2 hr can be converted to radians per hour using the fact that 1 orbit = 2p radians.
v = 1 orbit 2 hr
# 2p radians 1 orbit

(b) To approximate the distance traveled by the satellite, we use s = vt.
s = vt Formula for arc length s = 8000p14.52 Let v = 8000p and t = 4.5. s ≈ 110,000 km Multiply. Approximate to two significant digits.

Periodic Functions Phenomena that repeat with a predictable pattern, such as tides, phases of the moon, and hours of daylight, can be modeled by sine and cosine functions. These functions are periodic. The periodic graph in Figure 1 represents a normal heartbeat.

Periodic Function
A periodic function is a function ƒ such that
ƒ 1x 2 = ƒ 1x + np 2 , for every real number x in the domain of ƒ, every integer n, and some posi- tive real number p. The least possible positive value of p is the period of the function.
LOOKING AHEAD TO CALCULUS Periodic functions are used throughout
calculus, so it is important to know
their characteristics. One use of
these functions is to describe the
location of a point in the plane using
polar coordinates, an alternative to rectangular coordinates.
The circumference of the unit circle is 2p, so the least value of p for which the sine and cosine functions repeat is 2p. Therefore, the sine and cosine func- tions are periodic functions with period 2P. For every positive integer n,
sin x = sin 1x + n # 2P 2 and cos x = cos 1x + n # 2P 2 .

Periodic functions are defined as follows.
Graph of the Sine Function We have seen that for a real number s, the point on the unit circle corresponding to s has coordinates 1cos s, sin s2. See Figure 2. Trace along the circle to verify the results shown in the table.
As s Increases from sin s cos s
0 to p2 Increases from 0 to 1 Decreases from 1 to 0 p 2 to p Decreases from 1 to 0 Decreases from 0 to -1
p to 3p2 Decreases from 0 to -1 Increases from -1 to 0 3p 2 to 2p Increases from -1 to 0 Increases from 0 to 1
To avoid confusion when graphing the sine function, we use x rather than s. This corresponds to the letters in the xy-coordinate system. Selecting key values of x and finding the corresponding values of sin x leads to the table in Figure 3.

1414.1 Graphs of the Sine and Cosine Functions
To obtain the traditional graph in Figure 3, we plot the points from the table, use symmetry, and join them with a smooth curve. Because y = sin x is periodic with period 2p and has domain 1-∞, ∞2, the graph continues in the same pat- tern in both directions. This graph is a sine wave, or sinusoid.
The sine function is related to the unit circle. Its domain consists of real numbers corresponding to angle measures (or arc lengths) on the unit circle. Its range corresponds to y-coordinates (or sine values) on the unit circle.
Consider the unit circle in Figure 2 and assume that the line from the origin to some point on the circle is part of the pedal of a bicycle, with a foot placed on the circle itself. As the pedal is rotated from 0 radians on the horizontal axis through various angles, the angle (or arc length) giving the pedal’s location and its corresponding height from the horizontal axis given by sin x are used to cre- ate points on the sine graph. See Figure 4 on the next page.
NOTE A function ƒ is an odd function if for all x in the domain of ƒ,
ƒ 1−x 2 = −ƒ 1x 2 . The graph of an odd function is symmetric with respect to the origin. This means that if 1x, y2 belongs to the function, then 1-x, -y2 also belongs to the function. For example, Ap2 , 1 B and A - p2 , -1 B are points on the graph of y = sin x, illustrating the property sin1-x2 = -sin x.

142 CHAPTER 4 Graphs of the Circular Functions
LOOKING AHEAD TO CALCULUS The discussion of the derivative of a
function in calculus shows that for the
sine function, the slope of the tangent
line at any point x is given by cos x.
For example, look at the graph of
y = sin x and notice that a tangent line at x = {p2 , {
3p 2 , {
5p 2 , . . . will be
horizontal and thus have slope 0. Now
look at the graph of y = cos x and see that for these values, cos x = 0.

NOTE A function ƒ is an even function if for all x in the domain of ƒ,
ƒ 1−x 2 = ƒ 1x 2 . The graph of an even function is symmetric with respect to the y-axis. This means that if 1x, y2 belongs to the function, then 1-x, y2 also belongs to the function. For example, Ap2 , 0 B and A - p2 , 0 B are points on the graph of y = cos x, illustrating the property cos1-x2 = cos x.

It describes the height of the graph both above and below a horizontal line passing through the “middle” of the graph. Thus, for the basic sine function y = sin x (and also for the basic cosine function y = cos x), the amplitude is computed as follows.
1 2
31 - 1-124 = 1 2
122 = 1 Amplitude of y = sin x For y = 2 sin x, the amplitude is
1 2
32 - 1-224 = 1 2
142 = 2. Amplitude of y = 2 sin x We can think of the graph of y = a sin x as a vertical stretching of the
graph of y = sin x when a + 1 and a vertical shrinking when 0 * a * 1. ■✔ Now Try Exercise 15.
Amplitude
The graph of y = a sin x or y = a cos x, with a ≠ 0, will have the same shape as the graph of y = sin x or y = cos x, respectively, except with range 3- 'a ' , 'a ' 4. The amplitude is 'a ' .
Techniques for Graphing, Amplitude, and Period The examples that follow show graphs that are “stretched” or “compressed” (shrunk) either vertically, horizontally, or both when compared with the graphs of y = sin x or y = cos x.

144 CHAPTER 4 Graphs of the Circular Functions
While the coefficient a in y = a sin x or y = a cos x affects the amplitude of the graph, the coefficient of x in the argument affects the period. Consider y = sin 2x. We can complete a table of values for the interval 30, 2p4.
NOTE One method to divide an interval into four equal parts is as follows.
Step 1 Find the midpoint of the interval by adding the x-values of the end- points and dividing by 2.
Step 2 Find the quarter points (the midpoints of the two intervals found in Step 1) using the same procedure.
EXAMPLE 2 Graphing y = sin bx
Graph y = sin 2x, and compare to the graph of y = sin x.
SOLUTION In this function the coefficient of x is 2, so b = 2 and the period is 2p 2 = p. Therefore, the graph will complete one period over the interval 30, p4.
We can divide the interval 30, p4 into four equal parts by first finding its midpoint: 12 10 + p2 = p2 . The quarter points are found next by determining the midpoints of the two intervals C 0, p2 D and Cp2 , p D .

Note that one complete cycle occurs in p units, not 2p units. Therefore, the period here is p, which equals 2p2 . Now consider y = sin 4x. Look at the next table.

These values suggest that one complete cycle is achieved in p2 or 2p 4 units, which
is reasonable because
sin a4 # p 2 b = sin 2p = 0.
In general, the graph of a function of the form y = sin bx or y = cos bx, for b + 0, will have a period different from 2P when b 3 1.
To see why this is so, remember that the values of sin bx or cos bx will take on all possible values as bx ranges from 0 to 2p. Therefore, to find the period of either of these functions, we must solve the following three-part inequality.
0 … bx … 2p bx ranges from 0 to 2p.
0 … x … 2p b
Divide each part by the positive number b.
Thus, the period is 2Pb . By dividing the interval C 0, 2pb D into four equal parts, we obtain the values for which sin bx or cos bx is -1, 0, or 1. These values will give minimum points, x-intercepts, and maximum points on the graph. (If a function has b 6 0, then identities can be used to rewrite the function so that b 7 0.)

We can think of the graph of y = sin bx as a horizontal stretching of the graph of y = sin x when 0 * b * 1 and a horizontal shrinking when b + 1.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 27.
Period
For b 7 0, the graph of y = sin bx will resemble that of y = sin x, but with period 2pb . Also, the graph of y = cos bx will resemble that of y = cos x, but with period 2pb .
EXAMPLE 3 Graphing y = cos bx
Graph y = cos 23 x over one period.
SOLUTION The period is
2p 2 3
= 2p , 2 3
= 2p # 3 2
= 3p. To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal.
We divide the interval 30, 3p4 into four equal parts to obtain the x-values 0, 3p4 , 3p 2 ,
9p 4 , and 3p that yield minimum points, maximum points, and x-intercepts.
We use these values to obtain a table of key points for one period.
This screen shows a graph of the function in Example 3. By choosing
Xscl = 3p4 , the x-intercepts, maxima, and minima coincide with tick marks on the x-axis.

The amplitude is 1 because the maximum value is 1, the minimum value is -1, and 12 31 - 1-124 = 12 122 = 1. We plot these points and join them with a smooth curve. The graph is shown in Figure 8.

146 CHAPTER 4 Graphs of the Circular Functions
NOTE Look at the middle row of the table in Example 3. Dividing C 0, 2pb D into four equal parts gives the values 0, p2 , p,
3p 2 , and 2p for this row, result-
ing here in values of -1, 0, or 1. These values lead to key points on the graph, which can be plotted and joined with a smooth sinusoidal curve.
Guidelines for Sketching Graphs of Sine and Cosine Functions
To graph y = a sin bx or y = a cos bx, with b 7 0, follow these steps.
Step 1 Find the period, 2pb . Start at 0 on the x-axis, and lay off a distance of 2p b .
Step 2 Divide the interval into four equal parts. (See the Note preceding Example 2.)
Step 3 Evaluate the function for each of the five x-values resulting from Step 2. The points will be maximum points, minimum points, and x-intercepts.
Step 4 Plot the points found in Step 3, and join them with a sinusoidal curve having amplitude 'a ' .
Step 5 Draw the graph over additional periods as needed.
EXAMPLE 4 Graphing y = a sin bx
Graph y = -2 sin 3x over one period using the preceding guidelines.
SOLUTION
Step 1 For this function, b = 3, so the period is 2p3 . The function will be graphed over the interval C 0, 2p3 D .
Step 2 Divide the interval C 0, 2p3 D into four equal parts to obtain the x-values 0, p6 ,
p 3 , p 2 , and
2p 3 .
Step 3 Make a table of values determined by the x-values from Step 2.

Step 5 The graph can be extended by repeating the cycle.
Notice that when a is negative, the graph of y = a sin bx is a reflection across the x-axis of the graph of y = ∣a ∣ sin bx.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 29.

EXAMPLE 5 Graphing y = a cos bx (Where b Is a Multiple of P)
Graph y = -3 cos px over one period.
SOLUTION
Step 1 Here b = p and the period is 2pp = 2, so we will graph the function over the interval 30, 24.
Step 2 Dividing 30, 24 into four equal parts yields the x-values 0, 12 , 1, 32 , and 2. Step 3 Make a table using these x-values.

Step 5 The graph can be extended by repeating the cycle.
Notice that when b is an integer multiple of P, the first coordinates of the x-intercepts of the graph are rational numbers.

32 - 1-224 = 1 2
142 = 2 The amplitude 'a ' is 2. Because the graph completes a cycle on the interval 30, 4p4, the period is 4p. We use this fact to solve for b.
4p = 2p b
Period = 2pb
4pb = 2p Multiply each side by b.
b = 1 2
Divide each side by 4p.

148 CHAPTER 4 Graphs of the Circular Functions
A Trigonometric Model Sine and cosine functions may be used to model many real-life phenomena that repeat their values in a cyclical, or peri odic, manner. Average temperature in a certain geographic location is one such example.
EXAMPLE 7 Interpreting a Sine Function Model
The average temperature (in °F) at Mould Bay, Canada, can be approximated by the function
ƒ1x2 = 34 sin cp 6
1x - 4.32 d , where x is the month and x = 1 corresponds to January, x = 2 to February, and so on.
(a) To observe the graph over a two-year interval, graph ƒ in the window 30, 254 by 3-45, 454.
(b) According to this model, what is the average temperature during the month of May?
(c) What would be an approximation for the average annual temperature at Mould Bay?
SOLUTION
(a) The graph of ƒ1x2 = 34 sin Cp6 1x - 4.32 D is shown in Figure 11. Its ampli- tude is 34, and the period is
2p p 6
= 2p , p 6
= 2p # 6 p
= 12. Simplify the complex fraction.
Function ƒ has a period of 12 months, or 1 year, which agrees with the changing of the seasons.

(b) May is the fifth month, so the average temperature during May is
ƒ152 = 34 sin cp 6
15 - 4.32 d ≈ 12°F. Let x = 5 in the given function. See the display at the bottom of the screen in Figure 11.
(c) From the graph, it appears that the average annual temperature is about 0°F because the graph is centered vertically about the line y = 0.

154 CHAPTER 4 Graphs of the Circular Functions
EXAMPLE 1 Graphing y = sin 1x − d 2 Graph y = sin Ax - p3 B over one period. SOLUTION Method 1 For the argument x - p3 to result in all possible values throughout one period, it must take on all values between 0 and 2p, inclusive. To find an interval of one period, we solve the following three-part inequality.
0 … x - p 3
… 2p Three-part inequality
p
3 … x … 7p
3 Add p3 to each part.
Use the method described in the previous section to divide the interval Cp3 , 7p3 D into four equal parts, obtaining the following x-values.
These are key x-values.

A table of values using these x-values follows.

CAUTION In Example 1, the argument of the function is Ax - p3 B. The parentheses are important here. If the function had been
y = sin x - p 3
,
the graph would be that of y = sin x translated vertically p3 units down.
The graph can be extended through additional periods by repeating the given
portion of the graph, as necessary.

Method 2 We can also graph y = sin Ax - p3 B by using a horizontal trans- lation of the graph of y = sin x. The argument x - p3 indicates that the graph will be translated p3 units to the right (the phase shift) compared to the graph of y = sin x. See Figure 13.
To graph a function using this method, first graph the basic circular func- tion, and then graph the desired function using the appropriate translation.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 39.

1554.2 Translations of the Graphs of the Sine and Cosine Functions
We join the corresponding points with a smooth curve to obtain the solid blue graph shown in Figure 14. The period is 2p, and the amplitude is 3.
Method 2 Write y = 3 cos Ax + p4 B in the form y = a cos1x - d2. y = 3 cos ax + p
4 b , or y = 3 cos c x - a - p
4 b d Rewrite to subtract - p4 .
This result shows that d = - p4 . Because - p 4 is negative, the phase shift is 0 - p4 0 = p4 unit to the left. The graph is the same as that of y = 3 cos x (the red
graph in the calculator screen shown in the margin), except that it is translated p 4 unit to the left (the blue graph). ■✔ Now Try Exercise 41.
EXAMPLE 2 Graphing y = a cos 1x − d 2 Graph y = 3 cos Ax + p4 B over one period. SOLUTION Method 1 We first solve the following three-part inequality.
0 … x + p 4
… 2p Three-part inequality

Subtract p4 from each part.
Dividing this interval into four equal parts gives the following x-values. We use them to make a table of key points.

These x-values lead to maximum points, minimum points, and x-intercepts.
EXAMPLE 3 Graphing y = a cos 3b 1x − d 2 4 Graph y = -2 cos13x + p2 over two periods. SOLUTION Method 1 We first solve the three-part inequality
0 … 3x + p … 2p
to find the interval C - p3 , p3 D . Dividing this interval into four equal parts gives the points A - p3 , -2 B , A - p6 , 0 B , 10, 22, Ap6 , 0 B , and Ap3 , -2 B . We plot these points and join them with a smooth curve. By graphing an additional half period to the left and to the right, we obtain the graph shown in Figure 15.
Method 2 First write the equation in the form y = a cos 3b1x - d24. y = -2 cos13x + p2, or y = -2 cos c3 ax + p
3 b d Rewrite by factoring out 3.
Then a = -2, b = 3, and d = - p3 . The amplitude is $ -2 $ = 2, and the period is 2p3 (because the value of b is 3). The phase shift is 0 - p3 0 = p3 units to the left compared to the graph of y = -2 cos 3x. Again, see Figure 15.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 47.

Graph y = 3 - 2 cos 3x over two periods.
SOLUTION We use Method 1. The values of y will be 3 greater than the cor- responding values of y in y = -2 cos 3x. This means that the graph of y = 3 - 2 cos 3x is the same as the graph of y = -2 cos 3x, vertically translated 3 units up. The period of y = -2 cos 3x is 2p3 , so the key points have these x-values.

■✔ Now Try Exercise 51.
CAUTION If we use Method 2 to graph the function y = 3 - 2 cos 3x in Example 4, we must first graph
y = -2 cos 3x
and then apply the vertical translation 3 units up. To begin, use the fact that a = -2 and b = 3 to determine that the amplitude is 2, the period is 2p3 , and the graph is the reflection of the graph of y = 2 cos 3x across the x-axis. Then, because c = 3, translate the graph of y = -2 cos 3x up 3 units. See Figure 17.
If the vertical translation is applied first, then the reflection must be across the line y = 3, not across the x-axis.

Further Guidelines for Sketching Graphs of Sine and Cosine Functions
To graph y= c+ a sin 3b 1x− d 2 4 or y= c+ a cos 3b 1x− d 2 4 , with b 7 0, follow these steps.
Method 1
Step 1 Find an interval whose length is one period 2pb by solving the three- part inequality 0 … b1x - d2 … 2p.
Step 2 Divide the interval into four equal parts to obtain five key x-values.
Step 3 Evaluate the function for each of the five x-values resulting from Step 2. The points will be maximum points, minimum points, and points that intersect the line y = c (“middle” points of the wave).
Step 4 Plot the points found in Step 3, and join them with a sinusoidal curve having amplitude 'a ' .
Step 5 Draw the graph over additional periods, as needed.
Method 2
Step 1 Graph y = a sin bx or y = a cos bx. The amplitude of the function is 'a ' , and the period is 2pb .
Step 2 Use translations to graph the desired function. The vertical transla- tion is c units up if c 7 0 and ' c ' units down if c 6 0. The horizontal translation (phase shift) is d units to the right if d 7 0 and 'd ' units to the left if d 6 0.
EXAMPLE 5 Graphing y = c + a sin 3b 1x − d 2 4 Graph y = -1 + 2 sin14x + p2 over two periods. SOLUTION We use Method 1. We must first write the expression on the right side of the equation in the form c + a sin 3b1x - d24. y = -1 + 2 sin14x + p2, or y = -1 + 2 sin c4 ax + p

EXAMPLE 6 Modeling Temperature with a Sine Function
The maximum average monthly temperature in New Orleans, Louisiana, is 83°F, and the minimum is 53°F. The table shows the average monthly temperatures. The scatter diagram for a two-year interval in Figure 19 strongly suggests that the temperatures can be modeled with a sine curve.

1594.2 Translations of the Graphs of the Sine and Cosine Functions
SOLUTION
(a) We use the maximum and minimum average monthly temperatures to find the amplitude a.
a = 83 - 53 2
= 15 Amplitude a
The average of the maximum and minimum temperatures is a good choice for c. The average is
83 + 53 2
= 68. Vertical translation c
Because temperatures repeat every 12 months, b can be found as follows.
12 = 2p b
Period = 2pb
b = p 6
Solve for b.
The coldest month is January, when x = 1, and the hottest month is July, when x = 7. A good choice for d is 4 because April, when x = 4, is located at the midpoint between January and July. Also, notice that the average monthly temperature in April is 68°F, which is the value of the vertical translation, c. The average monthly temperature in New Orleans is modeled closely by the following equation.
ƒ1x2 = a sin 3b1x - d24 + c ƒ1x2 = 15 sin cp
6 1x - 42 d + 68 Substitute for a, b, c, and d.
(b) Figure 20 shows two iterations of the data points from the table, along with the graph of y = 15 sin Cp6 1x - 42 D + 68. The graph of y = 15 sin p6 x + 68 is shown for comparison.
(c) We used the given data for a two-year period and the sine regression capabil- ity of a graphing calculator to produce the model
ƒ1x2 = 15.35 sin10.52x - 2.132 + 68.89 described in Figure 21(a). Its graph along with the data points is shown in Figure 21(b).

4.3 Graphs of the Tangent and Cotangent Functions
Graph of the Tangent Function Consider the table of selected points accompanying the graph of the tangent function in Figure 22 on the next page.
These points include special values between - p2 and p
2 . The tangent function
is undefined for odd multiples of p
2 and, thus, has vertical asymptotes for such values. A vertical asymptote is a vertical line that the graph approaches but does not intersect. As the x-values get closer and closer to the line, the function values increase or decrease without bound. Furthermore, because
tan1-x2 = - tan x, Odd function the graph of the tangent function is symmetric with respect to the origin.

1654.3 Graphs of the Tangent and Cotangent Functions
The tangent function has period p. Because tan x = sin xcos x , tangent values are 0 when sine values are 0, and are undefined when cosine values are 0. As x-values increase from - p2 to
p
2 , tangent values range from -∞ to ∞ and increase through- out the interval. Those same values are repeated as x increases from
p
2 to 3p 2 , from
3p 2 to
5p 2 , and so on. The graph of y = tan x from -
3p 2 to
3p 2 is shown in Figure 23.

Its period is p.
There are no minimum or maximum values, so its graph has no amplitude.
The graph is symmetric with respect to the origin, so the function is an odd function. For all x in the domain, tan1-x2 = - tan x.

Graph of the Cotangent Function A similar analysis for selected points between 0 and p for the graph of the cotangent function yields the graph in Figure 25 on the next page. Here the vertical asymptotes are at x-values that are integer multiples of p. Because

The cotangent function also has period p. Cotangent values are 0 when cosine values are 0, and are undefined when sine values are 0. As x-values increase from 0 to p, cotangent values range from ∞ to -∞ and decrease throughout the inter- val. Those same values are repeated as x increases from p to 2p, from 2p to 3p, and so on. The graph of y = cot x from -p to p is shown in Figure 26.

Techniques for Graphing
Guidelines for Sketching Graphs of Tangent and Cotangent Functions
To graph y = a tan bx or y = a cot bx, with b 7 0, follow these steps.
Step 1 Determine the period, pb . To locate two adjacent vertical asymptotes, solve the following equations for x:
For y = a tan bx: bx = - p2 and bx = p
2 .
For y = a cot bx: bx = 0 and bx = p. Step 2 Sketch the two vertical asymptotes found in Step 1.
Step 3 Divide the interval formed by the vertical asymptotes into four equal parts.
Step 4 Evaluate the function for the first-quarter point, midpoint, and third- quarter point, using the x-values found in Step 3.
Step 5 Join the points with a smooth curve, approaching the vertical asymp- totes. Indicate additional asymptotes and periods of the graph as necessary.
EXAMPLE 1 Graphing y = tan bx
Graph y = tan 2x. SOLUTION
Step 1 The period of this function is p2 . To locate two adjacent vertical asymp- totes, solve 2x = - p2 and 2x =
p 2 (because this is a tangent function). The
two asymptotes have equations x = - p4 and x = p 4 .
Step 2 Sketch the two vertical asymptotes x = {p4 , as shown in Figure 28. Step 3 Divide the interval A - p4 , p4 B into four equal parts to find key x-values. first-quarter value: - p

EXAMPLE 2 Graphing y = a tan bx
Graph y = -3 tan 12 x.
SOLUTION The period is p 1 2
= p , 12 = p # 21 = 2p. Adjacent asymptotes are at x = -p and x = p. Dividing the interval 1-p, p2 into four equal parts gives key x-values of - p2 , 0, and
p 2 . Evaluating the function at these x-values gives
the following key points.a - p 2
, 3b , 10, 02, ap 2
, -3b Key points By plotting these points and joining them with a smooth curve, we obtain the graph shown in Figure 29. Because the coefficient -3 is negative, the graph is reflected across the x-axis compared to the graph of y = 3 tan 12 x.

NOTE The function y = -3 tan 12 x in Example 2, graphed in Figure 29, has a graph that compares to the graph of y = tan x as follows.
1. The period is larger because b = 12 , and 1 2 6 1.
2. The graph is stretched vertically because a = -3, and ' -3 ' 7 1. 3. Each branch of the graph falls from left to right (that is, the function
decreases) between each pair of adjacent asymptotes because a = -3, and -3 6 0. When a 6 0, the graph is reflected across the x-axis com- pared to the graph of y = 'a ' tan bx.
EXAMPLE 3 Graphing y = a cot bx
Graph y = 12 cot 2x.
SOLUTION Because this function involves the cotangent, we can locate two adjacent asymptotes by solving the equations 2x = 0 and 2x = p. The lines x = 0 (the y-axis) and x = p2 are two such asymptotes. We divide the interval A0, p2 B into four equal parts, obtaining key x-values of p8 , p4 , and 3p8 . Evaluating the function at these x-values gives the key points Ap8 , 12 B , Ap4 , 0 B , A3p8 , - 12 B . We plot these points and join them with a smooth curve approaching the asymptotes to obtain the graph shown in Figure 30.

1694.3 Graphs of the Tangent and Cotangent Functions
Like the other circular functions, the graphs of the tangent and cotangent functions may be translated horizontally and vertically.
EXAMPLE 4 Graphing y = c + tan x
Graph y = 2 + tan x. ANALYTIC SOLUTION
Every value of y for this function will be 2 units more than the corresponding value of y in y = tan x, causing the graph of y = 2 + tan x to be translated 2 units up compared to the graph of y = tan x. See Figure 31.
GRAPHING CALCULATOR SOLUTION
Observe Figures 32 and 33. In these figures
y2 = tan x
is the red graph and
y1 = 2 + tan x
is the blue graph. Notice that for the arbitrarily-chosen value of p4 1approximately 0.785398162, the difference in the y-values is
y1 - y2 = 3 - 1 = 2.
This illustrates the vertical translation 2 units up.

−Three periods of the function are shown in Figure 31. Because the period of y = 2 + tan x is p, additional asymptotes and periods of the function can be drawn by repeating the basic graph every p units on the x-axis to the left or to the right of the graph shown.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 29.
EXAMPLE 5 Graphing y = c + a cot 1x − d 2 Graph y = -2 - cot Ax - p4 B . SOLUTION Here b = 1, so the period is p. The negative sign in front of the cotangent will cause the graph to be reflected across the x-axis, and the argument Ax - p4 B indicates a phase shift (horizontal shift) p4 unit to the right. Because c = -2, the graph will then be translated 2 units down. To locate adjacent asymp- totes, because this function involves the cotangent, we solve the following.
x - p 4
= 0 and x - p 4
= p
x = p 4
and x = 5p 4
Add p4 .

(b) This is the graph of a cotangent function, but the period is p2 rather than p. Therefore, the coefficient of x is 2. This graph is vertically translated 1 unit down compared to the graph of y = cot 2 x. An equation for this graph is
y = -1 + cot 2 x. Period is p2 .
Vertical translation 1 unit down
■✔ Now Try Exercises 39 and 43.
NOTE Because the circular functions are periodic, there are infinitely many equations that correspond to each graph in Example 6. Confirm that both
y = -1 - cot1-2x2 and y = -1 - tan a2x - p 2 b
are equations for the graph in Example 6(b). When writing the equation from a graph, it is practical to write the simplest form. Therefore, we choose values of b where b 7 0 and write the function without a phase shift when possible.

1754.4 Graphs of the Secant and Cosecant Functions
Graph of the Cosecant function A similar analysis for selected points between -p and p for the graph of the cosecant function yields the graph in Figure 38. The vertical asymptotes are at x-values that are integer multiples of p. This graph is symmetric with respect to the origin because
csc1-x2 = -csc x. Odd function
Because cosecant values are reciprocals of corresponding sine values, the period of the cosecant function is 2p, the same as for y = sin x. When sin x = 1, the value of csc x is also 1. Likewise, when sin x = -1, csc x = -1. For all x, -1 … sin x … 1, and thus ' csc x ' Ú 1 for all x in its domain. Figure 39 shows how the graphs of y = sin x and y = csc x are related.Figure 39

176 CHAPTER 4 Graphs of the Circular Functions
Calculators do not have keys for the cosecant and secant functions. To graph them with a graphing calculator, use
csc x = 1 sin x
and sec x = 1 cos x
. Reciprocal identities ■
Guidelines for Sketching Graphs of Cosecant and Secant Functions
To graph y = a csc bx or y = a sec bx, with b 7 0, follow these steps. Step 1 Graph the corresponding reciprocal function as a guide, using a
dashed curve.
To Graph Use as a Guide
y = a csc bx y = a sin bx y = a sec bx y = a cos bx
Step 2 Sketch the vertical asymptotes. They will have equations of the form x = k, where k corresponds to an x-intercept of the graph of the guide function.
Step 3 Sketch the graph of the desired function by drawing the typical U-shaped branches between the adjacent asymptotes. The branches will be above the graph of the guide function when the guide function values are positive and below the graph of the guide function when the guide function values are negative. The graph will resemble those in Figures 37 and 40 in the function boxes given earlier in this section.
Like graphs of the sine and cosine functions, graphs of the secant and cose- cant functions may be translated vertically and horizontally. The period of both basic functions is 2p.
EXAMPLE 1 Graphing y = a sec bx
Graph y = 2 sec 12 x.
SOLUTION
Step 1 This function involves the secant, so the corresponding reciprocal func- tion will involve the cosine. The guide function to graph is
y = 2 cos 1 2
x.
Using the guidelines given earlier, we find that this guide function has amplitude 2 and that one period of the graph lies along the interval that satisfies the following inequality.
0 … 1 2
x … 2p
0 … x … 4p Multiply each part by 2.
Dividing the interval 30, 4p4 into four equal parts gives these key points.10, 22, 1p, 02, 12p, -22, 13p, 02, 14p, 22 Key points

Simple Harmonic Motion In part A of Figure 46, a spring with a weight attached to its free end is in equilibrium (or rest) position. If the weight is pulled down a units and released (part B of the figure), the spring’s elasticity causes the weight to rise a units 1a 7 02 above the equilibrium position, as seen in part C, and then to oscillate about the equilibrium position.

Simple Harmonic Motion
The position of a point oscillating about an equilibrium position at time t is modeled by either
s 1 t 2 = a cos V t or s 1 t 2 = a sin V t, where a and v are constants, with v 7 0. The amplitude of the motion is 'a ' , the period is
2p v
, and the frequency is v
2p oscillations per time unit.
EXAMPLE 1 Modeling the Motion of a Spring
Suppose that an object is attached to a coiled spring such as the one in Figure 46 on the preceding page. It is pulled down a distance of 5 in. from its equilibrium position and then released. The time for one complete oscillation is 4 sec.
(a) Give an equation that models the position of the object at time t.
(b) Determine the position at t = 1.5 sec. (c) Find the frequency.
SOLUTION
(a) When the object is released at t = 0, the distance of the object from the equi- librium position is 5 in. below equilibrium. If s1t2 is to model the motion, then s102 must equal -5. We use
s1t2 = a cos vt, with a = -5. We choose the cosine function here because cos v102 = cos 0 = 1, and -5 # 1 = -5. (Had we chosen the sine function, a phase shift would have been required.) Use the fact that the period is 4 to solve for v.
2p v
= 4 The period is 2pv .
v = p 2
Solve for v.
Thus, the motion is modeled by s1t2 = -5 cos p2 t.
To develop a general equation for such motion, consider Figure 47. Sup- pose the point P1x, y2 moves around the circle counterclockwise at a uniform angular speed v. Assume that at time t = 0, P is at 1a, 02. The angle swept out by ray OP at time t is given by u = vt. The coordinates of point P at time t are
x = a cos u = a cos vt and y = a sin u = a sin vt.
As P moves around the circle from the point 1a, 02, the point Q10, y2 oscil- lates back and forth along the y-axis between the points 10, a2 and 10, -a2. Similarly, the point R1x, 02 oscillates back and forth between 1a, 02 and 1-a, 02. This oscillatory motion is simple harmonic motion.
The amplitude of the motion is 'a ' , and the period is 2p v
. The moving points P and Q or P and R complete one oscillation or cycle per period. The number of cycles per unit of time, called the frequency, is the reciprocal of the period, v2p , where v 7 0.

1834.5 Harmonic Motion
(b) Substitute the given value of t in the equation found in part (a).
s1t2 = -5 cos p 2
t Equation from part (a)
s11.52 = -5 cos cp 2
11.52 d Let t = 1.5. s11.52 ≈ 3.54 in. Use a calculator. Because 3.54 7 0, the object is above the equilibrium position.
(c) The frequency is the reciprocal of the period, or 14 oscillation per sec.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 7.
EXAMPLE 2 Analyzing Harmonic Motion
Suppose that an object oscillates according to the model
s1t2 = 8 sin 3t, where t is in seconds and s1t2 is in feet. Analyze the motion. SOLUTION The motion is harmonic because the model is
s1t2 = a sin vt. Because a = 8, the object oscillates 8 ft in either direction from its starting point. The period 2p3 ≈ 2.1 is the time, in seconds, it takes for one complete oscillation. The frequency is the reciprocal of the period, so the object completes 3
2p ≈ 0.48 oscillation per sec.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 17.
Damped Oscillatory Motion In the example of the stretched spring, we disregard the effect of friction. Friction causes the amplitude of the motion to diminish gradually until the weight comes to rest. In this situation, we say that the motion has been damped by the force of friction. Most oscillatory motions are damped. For instance, shock absorbers are put on an automobile in order to damp oscillatory motion. Instead of oscillating up and down for a long while after hitting a bump or pothole, the oscillations of the car are quickly damped out for a smoother ride.
The decrease in amplitude of a damped oscillatory motion usually follows the pattern of exponential decay.
EXAMPLE 3 Analyzing Damped Oscillatory Motion
A typical example of damped oscillatory motion is provided by the function
s1x2 = e-x cos 2px. (The number e ≈ 2.718 is the base of the natural logarithm function.) We use x rather than t to match the variable for graphing calculators.
(a) Provide a calculator graph of y3 = e-x cos 2px, along with the graphs of y1 = e-x and y2 = -e-x for 0 … x … 3.
(b) Describe the relationships among the three graphs drawn in part (a).

(d) For what values of x does the graph of y3 intersect the x-axis?
SOLUTION
(a) Figure 48 shows a TI-84 Plus graph of y1, y2, and y3 in the window 30, 34 by 3-1, 14.
(b) The graph of y3 is bounded above by the graph of y1 and below by the graph of y2. (The graphs of y1 and y2 are referred to as envelopes for the graph of y3.)
(c) When 2px = 0, 2p, 4p, and 6p, cos 2px = 1. Thus, the value of e-x cos 2px is the same as the value of e-x when 2px = 0, 2p, 4p, and 6p—that is, when x = 0, 1, 2, and 3.

196 CHAPTER 5 Trigonometric Identities
5.1 Fundamental Identities
Fundamental Identities Recall that a function is even if ƒ 1−x 2 = ƒ 1x 2 for all x in the domain of ƒ, and a function is odd if ƒ 1−x 2 = −ƒ 1x 2 for all x in the domain of ƒ. We have used graphs to classify the trigono- metric functions as even or odd. We can also use Figure 1 to do this.
As suggested by the circle in Figure 1, an angle u having the point 1x, y2 on its terminal side has a corresponding angle -u with the point 1x, -y2 on its terminal side.
From the definition of sine, we see that sin1-u2 and sin u are negatives of each other. That is,
sin1-u2 = -y r and sin u =
y r ,
so sin 1−U 2 = −sin U Sine is an odd function. This is an example of an identity, an equation that is satisfied by every value in the domain of its variable. Some examples from algebra follow.
x2 - y2 = 1x + y21x - y2 x1x + y2 = x2 + xy Identities
x2 + 2xy + y2 = 1x + y22 Figure 1 shows an angle u in quadrant II, but the same result holds for u in
any quadrant. The figure also suggests the following identity for cosine.
cos1-u2 = x r and cos u = x
r
cos 1−U 2 = cos U Cosine is an even function. We use the identities for sin1-u2 and cos1-u2 to find tan1-u2 in terms of tan u.
tan1-u2 = sin1-u2 cos1-u2 = -sin ucos u = - sin ucos u
tan 1−U 2 = − tan U Tangent is an odd function. The reciprocal identities are used to determine that cosecant and cotangent are odd functions and secant is an even function. These even-odd identities together with the reciprocal, quotient, and Pythagorean identities make up the fundamental identities.

5.2 Verifying Trigonometric Identities
Strategies One of the skills required for more advanced work in math- ematics, especially in calculus, is the ability to use identities to write expressions in alternative forms. We develop this skill by using the fundamental identities to verify that a trigonometric equation is an identity (for those values of the variable for which it is defined).
■ Strategies ■ Verifying Identities by
Working with One Side ■ Verifying Identities
by Working with Both Sides
CAUTION The procedure for verifying identities is not the same as that for solving equations. Techniques used in solving equations, such as add- ing the same term to each side, and multiplying each side by the same term, should not be used when working with identities.
Work each problem.
79. Let cos x = 15 . Find all possible values of sec x - tan x

80. Let csc x = -3. Find all possible values of sin x + cos xsec x .

2035.2 Verifying Trigonometric Identities
Verifying Identities by Working with One Side Avoid the temptation to use algebraic properties of equations to verify identities.
One strategy is to work with one side and rewrite it to match the other side.
Hints for Verifying Identities
1. Learn the fundamental identities. Whenever you see either side of a fundamental identity, the other side should come to mind. Also, be aware of equivalent forms of the fundamental identities. For example,
sin2 u = 1 - cos2 u is an alternative form of sin2 u + cos2 u = 1. 2. Try to rewrite the more complicated side of the equation so that it is
identical to the simpler side.
3. It is sometimes helpful to express all trigonometric functions in the equation in terms of sine and cosine and then simplify the result.
4. Usually, any factoring or indicated algebraic operations should be performed. These algebraic identities are often used in verifying trigo- nometric identities.
x2 + 2xy + y2 = 1x + y22 x2 - 2xy + y2 = 1x - y22
x3 - y3 = 1x - y21x2 + xy + y22 x3 + y3 = 1x + y21x2 - xy + y22 x2 - y2 = 1x + y21x - y2
For example, the expression
sin2 x + 2 sin x + 1 can be factored as 1sin x + 122. The sum or difference of two trigonometric expressions can be found in
the same way as any other rational expression. For example,
1 sin u
+ 1 cos u
= 1 # cos u
sin u cos u + 1
# sin u cos u sin u
Write with the LCD.
= cos u + sin u sin u cos u
. ac + b c =
a + b c
5. When selecting substitutions, keep in mind the side that is not changing, because it represents the goal. For example, to verify that the equation
tan2 x + 1 = 1 cos2 x
is an identity, think of an identity that relates tan x to cos x. In this case, because sec x = 1cos x and sec2 x = tan2 x + 1, the secant function is the best link between the two sides.
6. If an expression contains 1 + sin x, multiplying both numerator and denominator by 1 - sin x would give 1 - sin2 x, which could be replaced with cos2 x. Similar procedures apply for 1 - sin x, 1 + cos x, and 1 - cos x.
LOOKING AHEAD TO CALCULUS Trigonometric identities are used in
calculus to simplify trigonometric
expressions, determine derivatives of
trigonometric functions, and change
the form of some integrals.

■✔ Now Try Exercise 59.
Verifying Identities by Working with Both Sides If both sides of an identity appear to be equally complex, the identity can be verified by working independently on the left side and on the right side, until each side is changed into some common third result. Each step, on each side, must be reversible. With all steps reversible, the procedure is as shown in the margin. The left side leads to a common third expression, which leads back to the right side.

NOTE Working with both sides is often a good alternative for identities that are difficult. In practice, if working with one side does not seem to be effective, switch to the other side. Somewhere along the way it may happen that the same expression occurs on both sides.
EXAMPLE 5 Verifying an Identity (Working with Both Sides)
Verify that the following equation is an identity.
sec a + tan a sec a - tan a =
1 + 2 sin a + sin2 a cos2 a
SOLUTION Both sides appear equally complex, so we verify the identity by changing each side into a common third expression. We work first on the left, multiplying the numerator and denominator by cos a.
sec a + tan a sec a - tan a =
1sec a + tan a2 cos a1sec a - tan a2 cos a Multiply by 1 in the form cos acos a .(1111)1111* Left side of given equation =

On the right side of the original equation, we begin by factoring.
1 + 2 sin a + sin2 a
cos2 a = 11 + sin a22

Compare this with the result shown in Example 5 for the right side to see that the two sides indeed agree.
EXAMPLE 6 Applying a Pythagorean Identity to Electronics
Tuners in radios select a radio station by adjusting the frequency. A tuner may contain an inductor L and a capacitor C, as illustrated in Figure 3. The energy stored in the inductor at time t is given by
L1t2 = k sin2 2pFt and the energy stored in the capacitor is given by
C1t2 = k cos2 2pFt, where F is the frequency of the radio station and k is a constant. The total energy E in the circuit is given by
E1t2 = L1t2 + C1t2. Show that E is a constant function. (Source: Weidner, R. and R. Sells, Elemen- tary Classical Physics, Vol. 2, Allyn & Bacon.)
SOLUTION
E1t2 = L1t2 + C1t2 Given equation = k sin2 2pFt + k cos2 2pFt Substitute. = k3sin2 2pFt + cos2 2pFt4 Factor out k. = k112 sin2 u + cos2 u = 1 1Here u = 2pFt.2 = k Identity property
Because k is a constant, E1t2 is a constant function. ■✔ Now Try Exercise 105.

Difference Identity for Cosine Several examples presented earlier should have convinced you by now that
cos 1A − B 2 does not equal cos A − cos B. For example, if A = p2 and B = 0, then
cos1A - B2 = cos ap 2
- 0b = cos p 2
= 0,
while cos A - cos B = cos p 2
- cos 0 = 0 - 1 = -1.
To derive a formula for cos1A - B2, we start by locating angles A and B in standard position on a unit circle, with B 6 A. Let S and Q be the points where the terminal sides of angles A and B, respectively, intersect the circle. Let P be the point 11, 02, and locate point R on the unit circle so that angle POR equals the difference A - B. See Figure 4.

Because point Q is on the unit circle, the x-coordinate of Q is the cosine of angle B, while the y-coordinate of Q is the sine of angle B.
Q has coordinates 1cos B, sin B2.

212 CHAPTER 5 Trigonometric Identities
In the same way,
S has coordinates 1cos A, sin A2, and R has coordinates 1cos1A - B2, sin1A - B22.
Angle SOQ also equals A - B. The central angles SOQ and POR are equal, so chords PR and SQ are equal. Because PR = SQ, by the distance formula,23cos1A - B2 - 142 + 3sin1A - B2 - 042
d = 21x2 - x122 + 1y2 - y122 = 21cos A - cos B22 + 1sin A - sin B22. Square each side of this equation. Then square each expression, remembering that for any values of x and y, 1x - y22 = x2 - 2xy + y2.3cos1A - B2 - 142 + 3sin1A - B2 - 042
= 1cos A - cos B22 + 1sin A - sin B22 cos21A - B2 - 2 cos1A - B2 + 1 + sin21A - B2 = cos2 A - 2 cos A cos B + cos2 B + sin2 A - 2 sin A sin B + sin2 B
For any value of x, sin2 x + cos2 x = 1, so we can rewrite the equation.
2 - 2 cos1A - B2 = 2 - 2 cos A cos B - 2 sin A sin B Use sin2 x + cos2 x = 1 three times and add like terms.
cos 1A − B 2 = cos A cos B + sin A sin B Subtract 2, and then divide by -2. This is the identity for cos1A - B2. Although Figure 4 shows angles A and B in the second and first quadrants, respectively, this result is the same for any values of these angles.
Cosine of a Sum or Difference
cos 1A + B 2 = cos A cos B − sin A sin B cos 1A − B 2 = cos A cos B + sin A sin B
These identities are important in calculus and useful in certain applications. For example, the method shown in Example 1 can be applied to find an exact value for cos 15°.
Sum Identity for Cosine To find a similar expression for cos1A + B2, rewrite A + B as A - 1-B2 and use the identity for cos1A - B2.
cos1A + B2 = cos3A - 1-B24 Definition of subtraction = cos A cos1-B2 + sin A sin1-B2 Cosine difference identity = cos A cos B + sin A1-sin B2 Even-odd identities
cos 1A + B 2 = cos A cos B − sin A sin B Multiply.

Find the exact value of each expression.
(a) cos 15° (b) cos 5p 12
(c) cos 87° cos 93° - sin 87° sin 93°
SOLUTION
(a) To find cos 15°, we write 15° as the sum or difference of two angles with known function values, such as 45° and 30°, because
15° = 45° - 30°. (We could also use 60° - 45°.)
Then we use the cosine difference identity.

This screen supports the solution in Example 1(b) by showing that the decimal approximations for cos 5p12
and 26 - 224 agree.
Cofunction Identities We can use the identity for the cosine of the differ- ence of two angles and the fundamental identities to derive cofunction identities, presented previously for values of u in the interval 30°, 90°4. For example, sub- stituting 90° for A and u for B in the identity for cos1A - B2 gives the following.
cos 190° − U 2 = cos 90° cos u + sin 90° sin u Cosine difference identity = 0 # cos u + 1 # sin u cos 90° = 0 and sin 90° = 1 = sin U Simplify.
This result is true for any value of u because the identity for cos1A - B2 is true for any values of A and B.

214 CHAPTER 5 Trigonometric Identities
NOTE Because trigonometric (circular) functions are periodic, the solu- tions in Example 2 are not unique. We give only one of infinitely many possibilities.
Cofunction Identities
The following identities hold for any angle u for which the functions are defined.
cos 190° − U 2 = sin U cot 190° − U 2 = tan U sin 190° − U 2 = cos U sec 190° − U 2 = csc U tan 190° − U 2 = cot U csc 190° − U 2 = sec U
The same identities can be obtained for a real number domain by replacing 90° with p2 .
EXAMPLE 2 Using Cofunction Identities to Find U
Find one value of u or x that satisfies each of the following.
(a) cot u = tan 25° (b) sin u = cos1-30°2 (c) csc 3p 4

SOLUTION
(a) Because tangent and cotangent are cofunctions, tan190° - u2 = cot u. cot u = tan 25°
tan190° - u2 = tan 25° Cofunction identity 90° - u = 25° Set angle measures equal.
u = 65° Solve for u.
(b) sin u = cos1-30°2 cos190° - u2 = cos1-30°2 Cofunction identity 90° - u = -30° Set angle measures equal. u = 120° Solve for u.

Applications of the Sum and Difference Identities If either angle A or angle B in the identities for cos1A + B2 and cos1A - B2 is a quadrantal angle, then the identity allows us to write the expression in terms of a single function of A or B.

EXAMPLE 4 Finding cos 1s + t 2 Given Information about s and t Suppose that sin s = 35 , cos t = -
12 13 , and both s and t are in quadrant II. Find
cos1s + t2. SOLUTION By the cosine sum identity,
cos1s + t2 = cos s cos t - sin s sin t. The values of sin s and cos t are given, so we can find cos1s + t2 if we know the values of cos s and sin t. There are two ways to do this.
Method 1 We use angles in standard position. To find cos s and sin t, we sketch two reference triangles in the second quadrant, one with sin s = 35 and the other with cos t = - 1213 . Notice that for angle t, we use -12 to denote the length of the side that lies along the x-axis. See Figure 5.
In Figure 5(a), y = 3 and r = 5. We must find x.
x2 + y2 = r2 Pythagorean theorem x2 + 32 = 52 Substitute.
x2 = 16 Isolate x2. x = -4 Choose the negative
square root here.
Choose the positive square root here.
Thus, cos s = xr = - 4 5 .
In Figure 5(b), x = -12 and r = 13. We must find y.
x2 + y2 = r2 Pythagorean theorem 1-1222 + y2 = 132 Substitute.
y2 = 25 Isolate y2. y = 5
Thus, sin t = yr = 5

Method 2 We use Pythagorean identities here. To find cos s, recall that sin2 s + cos2 s = 1, where s is in quadrant II.
a 3 5 b 2 + cos2 s = 1 sin s = 35 9 25
+ cos2 s = 1 Square 35 .
cos2 s = 16 25
Subtract 925 .
cos s = - 4 5
To find sin t, we use sin2 t + cos2 t = 1, where t is in quadrant II.
sin2 t + a - 12 13 b 2 = 1 cos t = - 1213
sin2 t + 144 169
= 1 Square - 1213 .
sin2 t = 25 169
Subtract 144169 .
sin t = 5 13
From this point, the problem is solved using the same steps beginning with the equation marked (1) in Method 1 on the previous page. The result is
cos1s + t2 = 33 65
. Same result as in Method 1
■✔ Now Try Exercise 51.
EXAMPLE 5 Applying the Cosine Difference Identity to Voltage
Common household electric current is called alternating current because the current alternates direction within the wires. The voltage V in a typical 115-volt outlet can be expressed by the function
V1t2 = 163 sin vt, where v is the angular speed (in radians per second) of the rotating generator at the electrical plant and t is time in seconds. (Source: Bell, D., Fundamentals of Electric Circuits, Fourth Edition, Prentice-Hall.)
(a) It is essential for electric generators to rotate at precisely 60 cycles per sec so household appliances and computers will function properly. Determine v for these electric generators.
(b) Graph V in the window 30, 0.054 by 3-200, 2004. (c) Determine a value of f so that the graph of
V1t2 = 163 cos1vt - f2 is the same as the graph of
V1t2 = 163 sin vt.

SOLUTION
(a) We convert 60 cycles per sec to radians per second as follows.
v = 60 cycles
1 sec # 2p radians
1 cycle = 120p radians per sec.
(b) V1t2 = 163 sin vt V1t2 = 163 sin 120pt From part (a), v = 120p radians per sec. Because the amplitude of the function V1t2 is 163, an appropriate interval for
the range is 3-200, 2004, as shown in the graph in Figure 6. (c) Use the even-odd identity for cosine and a cofunction identity.
cos ax - p 2 b = cos c - ap
2 - xb d = cos ap
2 - xb = sin x
Therefore, if f = p2 , then
V1t2 = 163 cos1vt - f2 V1t2 = 163 cos avt - p

76. Sound Waves Sound is a result of waves applying pressure to a person’s eardrum. For a pure sound wave radiating outward in a spherical shape, the trig- onometric function

can be used to model the sound pressure at a radius of r feet from the source, where t is time in seconds, l is length of the sound wave in feet, c is speed of sound in feet per second, and a is maximum sound pressure at the source measured in pounds per square foot. (Source: Beranek, L., Noise and Vibration Control, Institute of Noise Control Engineering, Washington, D.C.) Let l = 4.9 ft and c = 1026 ft per sec. (a) Let a = 0.4 lb per ft2. Graph the sound pressure at distance r = 10 ft from its
source in the window 30, 0.054 by 3-0.05, 0.054. Describe P at this distance. (b) Now let a = 3 and t = 10. Graph the sound pressure in the window 30, 204 by 3-2, 24. What happens to pressure P as radius r increases? (c) Suppose a person stands at a radius r so that r = nl, where n is a positive integer.
Use the difference identity for cosine to simplify P in this situation.

(This discussion applies to functions of both angles and real numbers.) The result of Example 3 in this section can be written as an identity.
cos 1180° − U 2 = −cos U This is an example of a reduction formula, which is an identity that reduces a func- tion of a quadrantal angle plus or minus u to a function of u alone. Another example of a reduction formula is
cos 1270° + U 2 = sin U. Here is an interesting method for quickly determining a reduction formula for a
trigonometric function ƒ of the form
ƒ 1Q t U 2 , where Q is a quadrantal angle. There are two cases to consider, and in each case, think of U as a small positive angle in order to determine the quadrant in which Q{ u will lie.

Determine the quadrant in which Q{ u will lie for a small positive angle u. If the given function ƒ is positive in that quadrant, use a + sign on the reduced form. If ƒ is negative in that quadrant, use a - sign. The reduced form will have that sign, ƒ as the function, and u as the argument.

For example, suppose the spacecraft undergoes roll through angle R. The coordinates 1x, y, z2 of point Q become 1x′, y′, z′2, the coordinates of the corresponding point Q′. In the new reference system, OQ′ = r and, because the roll is around the x-axis and angle Y′OQ′ = YOQ = u,
x′ = x, y′ = r cos1u + R2, and z′ = r sin1u + R2. (Source: Kastner, B., Space Mathematics, NASA.)

5.5 Double-Angle Identities
Double-Angle Identities When A = B in the identities for the sum of two angles, the double-angle identities result. To derive an expression for cos 2A, we let B = A in the identity cos1A + B2 = cos A cos B - sin A sin B.
cos 2 A = cos1A + A2 2A = A + A = cos A cos A - sin A sin A Cosine sum identity
cos 2 A = cos2 A − sin2 A a # a = a2
Two other useful forms of this identity can be obtained by substituting
cos2 A = 1 - sin2 A or sin2 A = 1 - cos2 A.
Replacing cos2 A with the expression 1 - sin2 A gives the following.
cos 2 A = cos2 A - sin2 A Double-angle identity from above = 11 - sin2 A2 - sin2 A Fundamental identity
cos 2 A = 1 − 2 sin2 A Subtract.
Replacing sin2 A with 1 - cos2 A gives a third form.
cos 2 A = cos2 A - sin2 A Double-angle identity from above = cos2 A - 11 - cos2 A2 Fundamental identity = cos2 A - 1 + cos2 A Distributive property
cos 2 A = 2 cos2 A − 1 Add.

Using the identity for tan1A + B2, we find tan 2A. tan 2 A = tan1A + A2 2A = A + A

LOOKING AHEAD TO CALCULUS The identities

EXAMPLE 1 Finding Function Values of 2U Given Information about U
Given cos u = 35 and sin u 6 0, find sin 2u, cos 2u, and tan 2u.
SOLUTION To find sin 2u, we must first find the value of sin u.
sin2 u + cos2 u = 1 Pythagorean identity
sin2 u + a 3 5 b 2 = 1 cos u = 35
sin2 u = 16 25
A35 B2 = 925 ; Subtract 925 . sin u = - 4

Take square roots. Choose the negative square root because sin u 6 0.
Pay attention to signs here.
Now use the double-angle identity for sine.
sin 2u = 2 sin u cos u = 2a - 4 5 b a 3
5 b = - 24
25 sin u = - 45 and cos u =

Now we find cos 2u, using the first of the double-angle identities for cosine.
cos 2u = cos2 u - sin2 u = 9 25
- 16 25
= - 7 25
cos u = 35 and A35 B2 = 925 ; sin u = - 45 and A - 45 B2 = 1625Any of the three forms may be used.

tan 2u = 2 tan u 1 - tan2 u =

Alternatively, we can find tan 2u by finding the quotient of sin 2u and cos 2u.
tan 2u = sin 2u cos 2u

Now find values of cos u and tan u by sketching and labeling a right triangle in
quadrant II. Because sin u = 1110 , the triangle in Figure 7 is labeled accordingly. The Pythagorean theorem is used to find the remaining leg.

indeed valid.
EXAMPLE 4 Simplifying Expressions Using Double-Angle Identities
Simplify each expression.

(a) This expression suggests one of the double-angle identities for cosine: cos 2 A = cos2 A - sin2 A. Substitute 7x for A.
cos2 7x - sin2 7x = cos 217x2 = cos 14x (b) If the expression sin 15° cos 15° were
2 sin 15° cos 15°,
we could apply the identity for sin 2 A directly because sin 2 A = 2 sin A cos A.

EXAMPLE 6 Determining Wattage Consumption
If a toaster is plugged into a common household outlet, the wattage consumed is not constant. Instead, it varies at a high frequency according to the model
W = V 2
R ,
where V is the voltage and R is a constant that measures the resistance of the toaster in ohms. (Source: Bell, D., Fundamentals of Electric Circuits, Fourth Edition, Prentice-Hall.)
Graph the wattage W consumed by a toaster with R = 15 and V = 163 sin 120pt in the window 30, 0.054 by 3-500, 20004. How many oscillations are there?
SOLUTION Substituting the given values into the wattage equation gives
W = V 2
R = 1163 sin 120pt22
15 .
To determine the range of W, we note that sin 120pt has maximum value 1, so
the expression for W has maximum value 1632
15 ≈ 1771. The minimum value is 0. The graph in Figure 8 shows that there are six oscillations.

Product-to-Sum and Sum-to-Product Identities We can add the corresponding sides of the identities for cos1A + B2 and cos1A - B2 to derive a product-to-sum identity that is useful in calculus.

LOOKING AHEAD TO CALCULUS The product-to-sum identities are used
in calculus to find integrals of functions that are products of trigonometric

■✔ Now Try Exercise 57.
We can transform the product-to-sum identities into equivalent useful forms— the sum-to-product identities—using substitution. Consider the product-to-sum identity for sin A cos B.
sin A cos B = 1 2
3sin 1A + B2 + sin 1A - B24 Product-to-sum identity Let u = A + B and v = A - B. Then u + v = 2A and u - v = 2B,

The other three sum-to-product identities are derived using the same substitu- tions into the other three product-to-sum formulas.
Use substitution variables to write the product-to-sum identity in terms of u and v.

5.6 Half-Angle Identities
Half-Angle Identities From alternative forms of the identity for cos 2A,
we derive identities for sin A2 , cos A 2 , and tan
A 2 , known as half-angle identities.
We derive the identity for sin A2 as follows.
cos 2x = 1 - 2 sin2 x Cosine double-angle identity 2 sin2 x = 1 - cos 2x Add 2 sin2 x and subtract cos 2x.
sin x = tB1 - cos 2 x2 Divide by 2 and take square roots. sin
A 2 = tÅ1 − cos A2 Let 2x = A, so x = A2 . Substitute.
■ Half-Angle Identities ■ Applications of the
Half-Angle Identities ■ Verifying an Identity
Remember both the positive and negative
square roots.
The { symbol indicates that the appropriate sign is chosen depending on the quadrant of A2 . For example, if
A 2 is a quadrant III angle, we choose the negative
sign because the sine function is negative in quadrant III.

2395.6 Half-Angle Identities
We derive the identity for cos A2 using another double-angle identity.
cos 2x = 2 cos2 x - 1 Cosine double-angle identity 1 + cos 2x = 2 cos2 x Add 1.
cos2 x = 1 + cos 2x 2
Rewrite and divide by 2.
cos x = {B1 + cos 2x2 Take square roots. cos
A 2 = tÅ1 + cos A2 Replace x with A2 .
An identity for tan A2 comes from the identities for sin A 2 and cos
A 2 .
tan A 2
= sin A2 cos A2
= {B1 - cos A2 {B1 + cos A2 = tÅ1 − cos A1 + cos A

A 2 =
sin A 1 + cos A
Simplify.
From the identity tan A2 = sin A
1 + cos A , we can also derive an equivalent identity.
tan A 2 =
1 − cos A sin A
Half-Angle Identities
In the following identities, the { symbol indicates that the sign is chosen based on the function under consideration and the quadrant of
A 2 .
cos A 2 = tÅ1 + cos A2 sin A2 = tÅ1 − cos A2
tan A 2 = tÅ1 − cos A1 + cos A tan A2 = sin A1 + cos A tan A2 = 1 − cos Asin A
Three of these identities require a sign choice. When using these identities,
select the plus or minus sign according to the quadrant in which A2 terminates. For
example, if an angle A = 324°, then A2 = 162°, which lies in quadrant II. So when A = 324°, cos A2 and tan
A 2 are negative, and sin
A 2 is positive.

(Modeling) Mach Number An airplane flying faster than the speed of sound sends out sound waves that form a cone, as shown in the figure. The cone intersects the ground to form a hyperbola. As this hyperbola passes over a particular point on the ground, a sonic boom is heard at that point. If u is the angle at the vertex of the cone, then
sin u

m ,
where m is the Mach number for the speed of the plane. (We assume m 7 1.) The Mach number is the ratio of the speed of the plane to the speed of sound. Thus, a speed of Mach 1.4 means that the plane is flying at 1.4 times the speed of sound.

Relating Concepts
For individual or collaborative investigation (Exercises 77–84)
These exercises use results from plane geom- etry to obtain exact values of the trigonometric functions of 15°.
Start with a right triangle ACB having a 60° angle at A and a 30° angle at B. Let the hypotenuse of this triangle have length 2. Extend side BC and draw a semicircle with diameter along BC extended, center at B, and radius AB. Draw segment AE. (See the figure.) Any angle inscribed in a semicircle is a right angle, so triangle EAD is a right triangle. Work Exercises 77– 84 in order.
77. Why is AB = BD true? Conclude that triangle ABD is isosceles.
78. Why does angle ABD have measure 150°?
79. Why do angles DAB and ADB both have measures of 15°?
80. What is the length DC?
81. Use the Pythagorean theorem to show that the length AD is 26 + 22. 82. Use angle ADB of triangle EAD to find cos 15°.
83. Show that AE has length 26 - 22 and find sin 15°. 84. Use triangle ACD to find tan 15°.

252 CHAPTER 6 Inverse Circular Functions and Trigonometric Equations
Inverse Functions We now review some basic concepts from algebra. For a function ƒ, every element x in the domain corresponds to one and only one element y, or ƒ 1x 2 , in the range. This means the following:
1. If point 1a, b2 lies on the graph of ƒ, then there is no other point on the graph that has a as first coordinate.
2. Other points may have b as second coordinate, however, because the defi- nition of function allows range elements to be used more than once.
If a function is defined so that each range element is used only once, then it is a one-to-one function. For example, the function
ƒ1x2 = x3 is a one@to@one function because every real number has exactly one real cube root. However,
g1x2 = x2 is not a one@to@one function because g122 = 4 and g1-22 = 4. There are two domain elements, 2 and -2, that correspond to the range element 4.
The horizontal line test helps determine graphically whether a function is one-to-one.
6.1 Inverse Circular Functions ■ Inverse Functions ■ Inverse Sine Function ■ Inverse Cosine Function ■ Inverse Tangent
Function ■ Other Inverse Circular
Functions ■ Inverse Function Values
This test is applied to the graphs of ƒ1x2 = x3 and g1x2 = x2 in Figure 1. By interchanging the components of the ordered pairs of a one-to-one
function ƒ, we obtain a new set of ordered pairs that satisfies the definition of a function. This new function is the inverse function, or inverse, of ƒ.
The special notation used for inverse functions is ƒ−1 (read “ƒ-inverse”). It represents the function created by interchanging the input (domain) and the output (range) of a one-to-one function.
Horizontal Line Test
A function is one-to-one if every horizontal line intersects the graph of the function at most once.

Inverse Function
The inverse function of a one-to-one function ƒ is defined as follows.
ƒ −1 = 5 1 y, x 2 ∣ 1x, y 2 belongs to ƒ 6 CAUTION Do not confuse the −1 in ƒ−1 with a negative exponent. The symbol ƒ-11x2 represents the inverse function of ƒ, not 1ƒ1x2 .

2536.1 Inverse Circular Functions
The following statements summarize the concepts of inverse functions.
Summary of Inverse Functions
1. In a one-to-one function, each x-value corresponds to only one y-value and each y-value corresponds to only one x-value.
2. If a function ƒ is one-to-one, then ƒ has an inverse function ƒ-1.
3. The domain of ƒ is the range of ƒ-1, and the range of ƒ is the domain of ƒ -1. That is, if the point 1a, b2 lies on the graph of ƒ, then the point 1b, a2 lies on the graph of ƒ-1.
4. The graphs of ƒ and ƒ-1 are reflections of each other across the line y = x.
5. To find ƒ-11x2 for ƒ1x2, follow these steps. Step 1 Replace ƒ1x2 with y and interchange x and y. Step 2 Solve for y.
Step 3 Replace y with ƒ-11x2. Figure 2 illustrates some of these concepts.

We often restrict the domain of a function that is not one-to-one to make it one-to-one without changing the range. We saw in Figure 1 that g1x2 = x2, with its natural domain 1-∞, ∞2, is not one-to-one. However, if we restrict its domain to the set of nonnegative numbers 30, ∞2, we obtain a new function ƒ that is one-to-one and has the same range as g, 30, ∞2. See Figure 3.
If the domain of g(x) = x2 is restricted so that x ≥ 0, then it is a one-to-one function.
g(x) = x2, x ≥ 0

Figure 3
NOTE We could have restricted the domain of g1x2 = x2 to 1-∞, 04 to obtain a different one-to-one function. For the trigonometric functions, such choices are based on general agreement by mathematicians.
LOOKING AHEAD TO CALCULUS The inverse circular functions are used in calculus to solve certain types
of related-rates problems and to
integrate certain rational functions.
Inverse Sine Function Refer to the graph of the sine function in Figure 4 on the next page. Applying the horizontal line test, we see that y = sin x does not define a one-to-one function. If we restrict the domain to the interval C - p2 , p2 D , which is the part of the graph in Figure 4 shown in color, this restricted function is one-to-one and has an inverse function. The range of y = sin x is 3-1, 14 , so the domain of the inverse function will be 3-1, 14, and its range will be C - p2 , p2 D .

254 CHAPTER 6 Inverse Circular Functions and Trigonometric Equations
Reflecting the graph of y = sin x on the restricted domain, shown in Fig- ure 5(a), across the line y = x gives the graph of the inverse function, shown in Figure 5(b). Some key points are labeled on the graph. The equation of the inverse of y = sin x is found by interchanging x and y to obtain
x = sin y.
This equation is solved for y by writing
y = sin−1 x (read “inverse sine of x”).
As Figure 5(b) shows, the domain of y = sin-1 x is 3-1, 14, while the restricted domain of y = sin x, C - p2 , p2 D , is the range of y = sin-1 x. An alternative nota- tion for sin−1 x is arcsin x.

Inverse Sine Function
y = sin−1 x or y = arcsin x means that x = sin y, for - p2 … y … p 2 .
We can think of y = sin−1 x or y = arcsin x as “y is the number (angle) in the interval C−P2 , P2 D whose sine is x.”
Thus, we can write y = sin-1 x as sin y = x to evaluate it. We must pay close attention to the domain and range intervals.

CAUTION In Example 1(b), it is tempting to give the value of sin-11-12 as 3p2 because sin
3p 2 = -1. However,
3p 2 is not in the range of the inverse
sine function. Be certain that the number given for an inverse function value is in the range of the particular inverse function being considered.

EXAMPLE 1 Finding Inverse Sine Values
Find the value of each real number y if it exists.
(a) y = arcsin 1 2
(b) y = sin-11-12 (c) y = sin-11-22 ALGEBRAIC SOLUTION
(a) The graph of the function defined by y = arcsin x (Figure 5(b)) includes the point A12 , p6 B . Therefore, arcsin
1 2 =
p
6 .
Alternatively, we can think of y = arcsin 12 as “y is the number in C - p2 , p2 D whose sine is 12 .” Then we can write the given equation as sin y = 12 . Because sin p6 =
1 2 and
p 6 is in the range of the arc-
sine function, y = p6 .
(b) Writing the equation y = sin-11-12 in the form sin y = -1 shows that y = - p2 . Notice that the
point A -1, - p2 B is on the graph of y = sin-1 x. (c) Because -2 is not in the domain of the inverse sine
function, sin-11-22 does not exist.
GRAPHING CALCULATOR SOLUTION
(a)–(c) We graph the equation y1 = sin-1 x and find the points with x-values 12 = 0.5 and -1. For these two x-values, Figure 6 indicates that y = p6 ≈ 0.52359878 and y = - p2 ≈ -1.570796.

Inverse Cosine Function The function
y = cos−1 x or y = arccos x
is defined by restricting the domain of the function y = cos x to the interval 30, p4 as in Figure 8. This restricted function, which is the part of the graph in Figure 8 shown in color, is one-to-one and has an inverse function. The inverse function, y = cos-1 x, is found by interchanging the roles of x and y. Reflecting the graph of y = cos x across the line y = x gives the graph of the inverse func- tion shown in Figure 9. Some key points are shown on the graph.

We can think of y = cos−1 x or y = arccos x as
“y is the number (angle) in the interval 30, P 4 whose cosine is x.” Inverse Cosine Function
y = cos−1 x or y = arccos x means that x = cos y, for 0 … y … p.
EXAMPLE 2 Finding Inverse Cosine Values
Find the value of each real number y if it exists.
(a) y = arccos 1 (b) y = cos-1 ¢ - 22 2
≤ SOLUTION
(a) Because the point 11, 02 lies on the graph of y = arccos x in Figure 9, the value of y, or arccos 1, is 0. Alternatively, we can think of y = arccos 1 as
“y is the number in 30, p4 whose cosine is 1,” or cos y = 1. Thus, y = 0, since cos 0 = 1 and 0 is in the range of the arccosine function.
(b) We must find the value of y that satisfies
cos y = - 222 , where y is in the interval 30, p4, which is the range of the function y = cos-1 x. The only value for y that satisfies these conditions is 3p4 . Again, this can be verified from the graph in Figure 9.

Inverse Tangent Function Restricting the domain of the function y = tan x to the open interval A - p2 , p2 B yields a one-to-one function. By interchanging the roles of x and y, we obtain the inverse tangent function given by
y = tan−1 x or y = arctan x.
Figure 11 shows the graph of the restricted tangent function. Figure 12 gives the graph of y = tan-1 x.

EXAMPLE 3 Finding Inverse Function Values (Degree-Measured Angles)
Find the degree measure of u if it exists.
(a) u = arctan 1 (b) u = sec-1 2 SOLUTION
(a) Here u must be in 1-90°, 90°2, but because 1 is positive, u must be in quad- rant I. The alternative statement, tan u = 1, leads to u = 45°.
(b) Write the equation as sec u = 2. For sec-1 x, u is in quadrant I or II. Because 2 is positive, u is in quadrant I and u = 60°, since sec 60° = 2. Note that 60° 1the degree equivalent of p3 B is in the range of the inverse secant function.
■✔ Now Try Exercises 37 and 45.
The inverse trigonometric function keys on a calculator give correct results for the inverse sine, inverse cosine, and inverse tangent functions.
sin-1 0.5 = 30°, sin-1 1-0.52 = -30°, Degree mode
tan-11-12 = -45°, and cos-11-0.52 = 120° However, finding cot-1 x, sec-1 x, and csc-1 x with a calculator is not as
straightforward because these functions must first be expressed in terms of tan-1 x, cos-1 x, and sin-1 x, respectively. If y = sec-1 x, for example, then we have sec y = x, which must be written in terms of cosine as follows.
If sec y = x, then 1cos y = x, or cos y = 1 x , and y = cos-1
1 x .
Inverse Function Values The inverse circular functions are formally defined with real number ranges. However, there are times when it may be con- venient to find degree-measured angles equivalent to these real number values. It is also often convenient to think in terms of the unit circle and choose the inverse function values on the basis of the quadrants given in the preceding table.

Use a calculator to approximate each value.
(a) Find y in radians if y = csc-11-32. (b) Find u in degrees if u = arccot1-0.35412. SOLUTION
(a) With the calculator in radian mode, enter csc-1 1-32 as sin-1 A 1-3 B to obtain y ≈ -0.3398369095. See Figure 15(a).
(b) A calculator in degree mode gives the inverse tangent value of a negative number as a quadrant IV angle. The restriction on the range of arccotangent implies that u must be in quadrant II.
arccot1-0.35412 is entered as tan-1 A 1-0.3541 B + 180°. As shown in Figure 15(b),
u ≈ 109.4990544°. ✔ Now Try Exercises 53 and 65.
CAUTION Be careful when using a calculator to evaluate the inverse cotangent of a negative quantity. Enter the inverse tangent of the recipro- cal of the negative quantity, which returns an angle in quadrant IV. Because inverse cotangent is negative in quadrant II, adjust the calculator result by adding p or 180° accordingly. (Note that cot-1 0 = p2 or 90°.)

6.2 Trigonometric Equations I
Earlier we studied trigonometric equations that were identities. We now consider trigonometric equations that are conditional. These equations are satisfied by some values but not others.
■ Linear Methods ■ Zero-Factor Property
Method ■ Quadratic Methods ■ Trigonometric Identity
Substitutions ■ An Application
Linear Methods The most basic trigonometric equations are solved by first using properties of equality to isolate a trigonometric expression on one side of the equation.
EXAMPLE 1 Solving a Trigonometric Equation (Linear Methods)
Solve the equation 2 sin u + 1 = 0 (a) over the interval 30°, 360°2 (b) for all solutions.
ALGEBRAIC SOLUTION
(a) Because sin u is to the first power, we use the same method as we would to solve the linear equation 2x + 1 = 0.
2 sin u + 1 = 0 Original equation 2 sin u = -1 Subtract 1.
sin u = - 1 2 Divide by 2.
To find values of u that satisfy sin u = - 12 , we observe that u must be in either quadrant III or quadrant IV because the sine function is negative only in these two quadrants. Furthermore, the ref- erence angle must be 30°. The graph of the unit circle in Figure 22 shows the two possible values of u. The solution set is 5210°, 330°6.
GRAPHING CALCULATOR SOLUTION
(a) Consider the original equation.
2 sin u + 1 = 0
We can find the solution set of this equation by graphing the function
y1 = 2 sin x + 1
and then determining its zeros. Because we are find- ing solutions over the interval 30°, 360°2, we use degree mode and choose this interval of values for the input x on the graph.
The screen in Figure 23(a) indicates that one solution is 210°, and the screen in Figure 23(b) indicates that the other solution is 330°. The solution set is 5210°, 330°6, which agrees with the algebraic solution.

(b) To find all solutions, we add integer multiples of the period of the sine function, 360°, to each solu- tion found in part (a). The solution set is written as follows. 5210° + 360°n , 330° + 360°n ,
where n is any integer6 (b) Because the graph of
y1 = 2 sin x + 1 repeats the same y-values every 360°, all solutions are found by adding integer multiples of 360° to the solutions found in part (a). See the algebraic solution.

Zero-Factor Property Method
EXAMPLE 2 Solving a Trigonometric Equation (Zero-Factor Property)
Solve sin u tan u = sin u over the interval 30°, 360°2. SOLUTION sin u tan u = sin u Original equation sin u tan u - sin u = 0 Subtract sin u. sin u 1tan u - 12 = 0 Factor out sin u.
sin u = 0 or tan u - 1 = 0 Zero-factor property tan u = 1
u = 0° or u = 180° u = 45° or u = 225° Apply the inverse function.
See Figure 24. The solution set is 50°, 45°, 180°, 225°6. ✔ Now Try Exercise 35.

CAUTION Trying to solve the equation in Example 2 by dividing each side by sin u would lead to tan u = 1, which would give u = 45° or u = 225°. The missing two solutions are the ones that make the divisor, sin u, equal 0. For this reason, we avoid dividing by a variable expression.
Quadratic Methods The equation au2 + bu + c = 0, where u is an alge- braic expression, is solved by quadratic methods. The expression u may be a trigonometric function.
EXAMPLE 3 Solving a Trigonometric Equation (Zero-Factor Property)
Solve tan2 x + tan x - 2 = 0 over the interval 30, 2p2. SOLUTION tan2 x + tan x - 2 = 0 This equation is quadratic in form. 1tan x - 12 1tan x + 22 = 0 Factor. tan x - 1 = 0 or tan x + 2 = 0 Zero-factor property tan x = 1 or tan x = -2 Solve each equation.
The solutions for tan x = 1 over the interval 30, 2p2 are x = p4 and x = 5p4 . To solve tan x = -2 over that interval, we use a calculator set in radian mode.
We find that tan-11-22 ≈ -1.1071487. This is a quadrant IV number, based on the range of the inverse tangent function. However, because we want solutions over the interval 30, 2p2, we must first add p to -1.1071487, and then add 2p. See Figure 25.
x ≈ -1.1071487 + p ≈ 2.0344439 x ≈ -1.1071487 + 2p ≈ 5.1760366

EXAMPLE 4 Solving a Trigonometric Equation (Quadratic Formula)
Find all solutions of cot x1cot x + 32 = 1. SOLUTION We multiply the factors on the left and subtract 1 to write the equation in standard quadratic form.
cot x1cot x + 32 = 1 Original equation cot2 x + 3 cot x - 1 = 0 Distributive property; Subtract 1.
This equation is quadratic in form, but cannot be solved using the zero-factor property. Therefore, we use the quadratic formula, with a = 1, b = 3, c = -1, and cot x as the variable.
LOOKING AHEAD TO CALCULUS There are many instances in calculus

and optimization problems.
Trigonometric Identity Substitutions Recall that squaring each side of an equation, such as 2x + 4 = x + 2, will yield all solutions but may also give extraneous solutions—solutions that satisfy the final equation but not the original equation. As a result, all proposed solutions must be checked in the original equation as shown in Example 5.

EXAMPLE 5 Solving a Trigonometric Equation (Squaring)
Solve tan x + 23 = sec x over the interval 30, 2p2. SOLUTION We must rewrite the equation in terms of a single trigonometric function. Because the tangent and secant functions are related by the identity 1 + tan2 x = sec2 x, square each side and express sec2 x in terms of tan2 x.
A tan x + 23 B2 = 1sec x22 Square each side. tan2 x + 223 tan x + 3 = sec2 x 1x + y22 = x2 + 2x y + y2 tan2 x + 223 tan x + 3 = 1 + tan2 x Pythagorean identity
223 tan x = -2 Subtract 3 + tan2 x. tan x = - 123 Divide by 223. tan x = - 23
3 Rationalize the denominator.
Solutions of tan x = - 233 over 30, 2p2 are 5p6 and 11p6 . These possible, or pro- posed, solutions must be checked to determine whether they are also solutions of the original equation.
Don’t forget the middle term.

Solving a Trigonometric Equation
1. Decide whether the equation is linear or quadratic in form in order to determine the solution method.
2. If only one trigonometric function is present, solve the equation for that function.
3. If more than one trigonometric function is present, rewrite the equation so that one side equals 0. Then try to factor and apply the zero-factor property.
4. If the equation is quadratic in form, but not factorable, use the quadratic formula. Check that solutions are in the desired interval.
5. Try using identities to change the form of the equation. It may be helpful to square each side of the equation first. In this case, check for extraneous solutions.

An Application
EXAMPLE 6 Describing a Musical Tone from a Graph
A basic component of music is a pure tone. The graph in Figure 26 models the sinusoidal pressure y = P in pounds per square foot from a pure tone at time x = t in seconds. (a) The frequency of a pure tone is often measured in hertz. One hertz is equal
to one cycle per second and is abbreviated Hz. What is the frequency ƒ, in hertz, of the pure tone shown in the graph?
(b) The time for the tone to produce one complete cycle is the period. Approxi- mate the period T, in seconds, of the pure tone.
(c) An equation for the graph is y = 0.004 sin 300px. Use a calculator to estimate all solutions that make y = 0.004 over the interval 30, 0.024.
SOLUTION
(a) From Figure 26, we see that there are 6 cycles in 0.04 sec. This is equivalent
to 6
0.04 = 150 cycles per sec. The pure tone has a frequency of ƒ = 150 Hz.
(b) Six periods cover a time interval of 0.04 sec. One period would be equal to T = 0.046 =
1 150 , or 0.006 sec.
(c) If we reproduce the graph in Figure 26 on a calculator as y1 and also graph a second function as y2 = 0.004, we can determine that the approximate values of x at the points of intersection of the graphs over the interval 30, 0.024 are
0.0017, 0.0083, and 0.015.
The first value is shown in Figure 27. These values represent time in seconds.

65. Pressure on the Eardrum See Example 6. No musical instrument can generate a true pure tone. A pure tone has a unique, constant frequency and amplitude that sounds rather dull and uninteresting. The pressures caused by pure tones on the eardrum are sinusoidal. The change in pressure P in pounds per square foot on a person’s eardrum from a pure tone at time t in seconds can be modeled using the equation
P = A sin12pƒt + f2, where ƒ is the frequency in cycles per second, and f is the phase angle. When P is positive, there is an increase in pressure and the eardrum is pushed inward. When P is negative, there is a decrease in pressure and the eardrum is pushed outward. (Source: Roederer, J., Introduction to the Physics and Psychophysics of Music, Second Edition, Springer-Verlag.)

EXAMPLE 2 Solving an Equation Using a Double-Angle Identity
Solve cos 2x = cos x over the interval 30, 2p2. SOLUTION First convert cos 2x to a function of x alone. Use the identity cos 2x = 2 cos2 x - 1 so that the equation involves only cos x. Then factor.
cos 2x = cos x Original equation 2 cos2 x - 1 = cos x Cosine double-angle identity

or cos x = 1 Solve each equation for cos x.
If we use the unit circle to analyze these results, we recognize that a radian- measured angle having cosine - 12 must be in quadrant II or III with reference angle p3 . Another possibility is that it has a value of 1 at 0 radians. We can use

2 sin 2u = 23 Sine double-angle identity sin 2u = 23
2 Divide by 2.
From the given interval 0° … u 6 360°, the corresponding interval for 2u is 0° … 2u 6 720°. Because the sine is positive in quadrants I and II, solutions over this interval are as follows.
2u = 60°, 120°, 420°, 480°, Reference angle is 60°.
or u = 30°, 60°, 210°, 240° Divide by 2.
The final two solutions for 2u were found by adding 360° to 60° and 120°, respectively, which gives the solution set 530°, 60°, 210°, 240°6.
CAUTION Because 2 is not a factor of cos 2x, cos 2x2 ≠ cos x. In Exam- ple 2, we changed cos 2x to a function of x alone using an identity.

An Application A piano string can vibrate at more than one frequency when it is struck. It produces a complex wave that can mathematically be modeled by a sum of several pure tones. When a piano key with a frequency of ƒ1 is played, the corresponding string vibrates not only at ƒ1 but also at the higher frequencies of 2ƒ1 , 3ƒ1 , 4ƒ1 , . . . , nƒ1. ƒ1 is the fundamental frequency of the string, and higher frequencies are the upper harmonics. The human ear will hear the sum of these frequencies as one complex tone. (Source: Roederer, J., Introduction to the Physics and Psychophysics of Music, Second Edition, Springer-Verlag.)

Suppose that the A key above middle C is played on a piano. Its fundamental frequency is ƒ1 = 440 Hz, and its associated pressure is expressed as
P1 = 0.002 sin 880pt.
The string will also vibrate at
ƒ2 = 880, ƒ3 = 1320, ƒ4 = 1760, ƒ5 = 2200, . . . . Hz.

57. Pressure of a Plucked String If a string with a fundamental frequency of 110 Hz is plucked in the middle, it will vibrate at the odd harmonics of 110, 330, 550, . . . Hz but not at the even harmonics of 220, 440, 660, . . . Hz. The resulting pressure P caused by the string is graphed below and can be modeled by the following equation.

(b) Describe the shape of the sound wave that is produced.
(c) At lower frequencies, the inner ear will hear a tone only when the eardrum is moving outward. This occurs when P is negative. Determine the times over the interval 30, 0.034 when this will occur.
58. Hearing Beats in Music Musicians sometimes tune instruments by playing the same tone on two different instruments and listening for a phenomenon known as beats. Beats occur when two tones vary in frequency by only a few hertz. When the two instruments are in tune, the beats disappear. The ear hears beats because the pressure slowly rises and falls as a result of this slight variation in the frequency. (Source: Pierce, J., The Science of Musical Sound, Scientific American Books.)
(a) Consider the two tones with frequencies of 220 Hz and 223 Hz and pressures P1 = 0.005 sin 440pt and P2 = 0.005 sin 446pt, respectively. A graph of the pressure P = P1 + P2 felt by an eardrum over the 1-sec interval 30.15, 1.154 is shown here. How many beats are there in 1 sec?
(b) Repeat part (a) with frequencies of 220 and 216 Hz.

59. Hearing Difference Tones When a musical instrument creates a tone of 110 Hz, it also creates tones at 220, 330, 440, 550, 660, . . . Hz. A small speaker cannot reproduce the 110-Hz vibration but it can reproduce the higher frequencies, which are the upper harmonics. The low tones can still be heard because the speaker produces difference tones of the upper harmonics. The difference between con- secutive frequencies is 110 Hz, and this difference tone will be heard by a listener. (Source: Benade, A., Fundamentals of Musical Acoustics, Dover Publications.)

2836.4 Equations Involving Inverse Trigonometric Functions
Because the function y = 3 cos 2x is periodic, with period p, there are infinitely many domain values (x-values) that will result in a given range value ( y-value). For example, the x-values 0 and p both correspond to the y-value 3. See Figure 31. The restriction 0 … x … p2 given in the original problem ensures that this function is one-to-one, and, correspondingly, that
x = 1 2
arccos y 3
has a one-to-one relationship. Thus, each y-value in 3-3, 34 substituted into this equation will lead to a single x-value.

Solving a Trigonometric Equation
1. Decide whether the equation is linear or quadratic in form in order to determine the solution method.
2. If only one trigonometric function is present, solve the equation for that function.
3. If more than one trigonometric function is present, rewrite the equation so that one side equals 0. Then try to factor and apply the zero-factor property.
4. If the equation is quadratic in form, but not factorable, use the quadratic formula. Check that solutions are in the desired interval.
5. Try using identities to change the form of the equation. It may be helpful to square each side of the equation first. In this case, check for extraneous solutions.

7.1 Oblique Triangles and the Law of Sines
Congruency and Oblique Triangles We now turn our attention to solving triangles that are not right triangles. To do this we develop new relationships, or laws, that exist between the sides and angles of any triangle. The congruence axioms assist in this process. Recall that two triangles are congruent if their corresponding sides and angles are equal.
■ Congruency and Oblique Triangles
■ Derivation of the Law of Sines
■ Solutions of SAA and ASA Triangles (Case 1)
■ Area of a Triangle
Congruence Axioms
Side-Angle-Side (SAS)
If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal, respectively, to two sides and the included angle of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
Angle-Side-Angle (ASA)
If two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal, respectively, to two angles and the included side of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
Side-Side-Side (SSS)
If three sides of one triangle are equal, respectively, to three sides of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

If a side and any two angles are given (SAA), the third angle can be determined by the angle sum formula
A + B + C = 180°.
Then the ASA axiom can be applied. Whenever SAS, ASA, or SSS is given, the triangle is unique.
A triangle that is not a right triangle is an oblique triangle. Recall that a triangle can be solved—that is, the measures of the three sides and three angles can be found—if at least one side and any other two measures are known.
NOTE If we know three angles of a triangle, we cannot find unique side lengths because AAA assures us only of similarity, not congruence. For example, there are infinitely many triangles ABC of different sizes with A = 35°, B = 65°, and C = 80°.
Data Required for Solving Oblique Triangles
There are four possible cases.
Case 1 One side and two angles are known (SAA or ASA).
Case 2 Two sides and one angle not included between the two sides are known (SSA). This case may lead to more than one triangle.
Case 3 Two sides and the angle included between the two sides are known (SAS).
Case 4 Three sides are known (SSS).

2977.1 Oblique Triangles and the Law of Sines
Derivation of the Law of Sines To derive the law of sines, we start with an oblique triangle, such as the acute triangle in Figure 1(a) or the obtuse triangle in Figure 1(b). This discussion applies to both triangles. First, construct the per- pendicular from B to side AC (or its extension). Let h be the length of this perpen- dicular. Then c is the hypotenuse of right triangle ADB, and a is the hypotenuse of right triangle BDC.
In triangle ADB, sin A = h c
, or h = c sin A.
In triangle BDC, sin C = h a
, or h = a sin C.
Because h = c sin A and h = a sin C, we set these two expressions equal.
a sin C = c sin A
a
sin A =
c sin C
Divide each side by sin A sin C.
In a similar way, by constructing perpendicular lines from the other vertices, we can show that these two equations are also true.
a sin A
= b
sin B and
b sin B
= c
sin C
This discussion proves the following theorem.
Solving a triangle with given information matching Case 1 or Case 2 requires using the law of sines, while solving a triangle with given information matching Case 3 or Case 4 requires using the law of cosines.

We label oblique triangles as we did right triangles: side a opposite angle A, side b opposite angle B, and side c opposite angle C.
Law of Sines
In any triangle ABC, with sides a, b, and c, the following hold.
a sin A
= b
sin B ,
a sin A
= c
sin C , and
b sin B
= c
sin C
This can be written in compact form as follows.
a sin A
= b
sin B =
c sin C
That is, according to the law of sines, the lengths of the sides in a triangle are proportional to the sines of the measures of the angles opposite them.
In practice we can also use an alternative form of the law of sines.
sin A a
= sin B
b =
sin C c
Alternative form of the law of sines
NOTE When using the law of sines, a good strategy is to select a form that has the unknown variable in the numerator and where all other variables are known. This makes computation easier.

A + B + C = 180° Angle sum formula C = 180° - A - B Solve for C. C = 180° - 32.0° - 81.8° Substitute. C = 66.2° Subtract.

29. Why can the law of sines not be used to solve a triangle if we are given only the lengths of the three sides of the triangle?
30. In Example 1, we begin (as seen there) by solving for b and C. Why is it a better idea to solve for c by using a and sin A than by using b and sin B?
31. Eli Maor, a perceptive trigonometry student, makes this statement: “If we know any two angles and one side of a triangle, then the triangle is uniquely determined.” Why is this true? Refer to the congruence axioms given in this section.
32. In a triangle, if a is twice as long as b, is A necessarily twice as large as B?

Distance to the Moon The moon is a relatively close celestial object, so its distance can be measured directly by taking two different photographs at precisely the same time from two different locations. The moon will have a different angle of eleva- tion at each location. On April 29, 1976, at 11:35 a.m., the lunar angles of elevation during a partial solar eclipse at Bochum in upper Germany and at Donaueschingen in lower Germany were measured as 52.6997° and 52.7430°, respectively. The two cities are 398 km apart.
Calculate the distance to the moon, to the nearest thousand kilometers, from Bochum on this day, and compare it with the actual value of 406,000 km. Disregard the curvature of Earth in this calculation. (Source: Scholosser, W., T. Schmidt-Kaler, and E. Milone, Challenges of Astronomy, Springer-Verlag.)

44. Ground Distances Measured by Aerial Photography The distance covered by an aerial photograph is determined by both the focal length of the camera and the tilt of the camera from the perpendicular to the ground. A camera lens with a 12-in. focal length will have an angular cover- age of 60°. If an aerial photograph is taken with this camera tilted u = 35° at an altitude of 5000 ft, calculate to the nearest foot the ground distance d that will be shown in this photograph. (Source: Brooks, R. and D. Johannes, Phytoarchaeology, Dioscorides Press.)

Suppose an aerial photograph is taken vertically with no tilt at an altitude of 3500 ft over ground with an increasing slope of 5°, as shown in the figure. Calculate the ground distance CB, to the nearest hundred feet, that will appear in the resulting pho- tograph. (Source: Moffitt, F. and E. Mikhail, Pho- togrammetry, Third Edition, Harper & Row.)

Solve each problem.
59. Area of a Metal Plate A painter is going to apply a special coating to a triangular metal plate on a new building. Two sides measure 16.1 m and 15.2 m. She knows that the angle between these sides is 125°. What is the area of the surface she plans to cover with the coating?
60. Area of a Triangular Lot A real estate agent wants to find the area of a triangular lot. A surveyor takes measurements and finds that two sides are 52.1 m and 21.3 m, and the angle between them is 42.2°. What is the area of the triangular lot?
61. Triangle Inscribed in a Circle For a triangle inscribed in a circle of radius r, the law of sines ratios
a sin A
, b
sin B , and
c sin C
have value 2r.
The circle in the figure has diameter 1. What are the values of a, b, and c? (Note: This result provides an alternative way to define the sine function for angles between 0° and 180°. It was used nearly 2000 yr ago by the mathematician Ptolemy to construct one of the earliest trigonometric tables.)
62. Theorem of Ptolemy The following theorem is also attributed to Ptolemy:
In a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle, the product of the diagonals is equal to the sum of the products of the opposite sides.
(Source: Eves, H., An Introduction to the History of Math- ematics, Sixth Edition, Saunders College Publishing.) The circle in the figure has diameter 1. Use Ptolemy’s theorem to derive the formula for the sine of the sum of two angles.
63. Law of Sines Several of the exercises on right triangle applications involved a figure similar to the one shown here, in which angles a and b and the length of line segment AB are known, and the length of side CD is to be determined. Use the law of sines to obtain x in terms of a, b, and d.
64. Aerial Photography Aerial photographs can be used to provide coordinates of ordered pairs to determine distances on the ground. Suppose we assign coordinates as shown in the figure. If an object’s photographic coordinates are 1x, y2, then its ground coordinates 1X, Y2 in feet can be com- puted using the following formulas.
X = 1a - h2x
ƒ sec u - y sin u , Y = 1a - h2y cos u
ƒ sec u - y sin u
Here, ƒ is focal length of the camera in inches, a is altitude in feet of the airplane, and h is elevation in feet of the object. Suppose that a house has photographic coordinates 1xH, yH2 = 10.9, 3.52 with elevation 150 ft, and a nearby forest fire has photographic coordinates 1xF, yF2 = 12.1, -2.42 and is at elevation 690 ft. Also suppose the photograph was taken at 7400 ft by a camera with focal length 6 in. and tilt angle u = 4.1°. (Source: Moffitt, F. and E. Mikhail, Photogrammetry, Third Edition, Harper & Row.)
(a) Use the formulas to find the ground coordinates of the house and the fire to the nearest tenth of a foot.
(b) Use the distance formula d = 21x2 - x122 + 1y2 - y122 to find the distance on the ground between the house and the fire to the nearest tenth of a foot.

7.2 The Ambiguous Case of the Law of Sines
Description of the Ambiguous Case We have used the law of sines to solve triangles involving Case 1, given SAA or ASA. If we are given the lengths of two sides and the angle opposite one of them (Case 2, SSA), then zero, one, or two such triangles may exist. (There is no SSA congruence axiom.)
Suppose we know the measure of acute angle A of triangle ABC, the length of side a, and the length of side b, as shown in Figure 8. We must draw the side of length a opposite angle A. The table shows possible outcomes. This situation (SSA) is called the ambiguous case of the law of sines.

2. sin u = sin1180° - u2 (Supplementary angles have the same sine value.) 3. The smallest angle is opposite the shortest side, the largest angle is opposite
the longest side, and the middle-valued angle is opposite the intermediate side (assuming the triangle has sides that are all of different lengths).

3077.2 The Ambiguous Case of the Law of Sines
Solutions of SSA Triangles (Case 2)
EXAMPLE 1 Solving the Ambiguous Case (No Such Triangle)
Solve triangle ABC if B = 55° 40′, b = 8.94 m, and a = 25.1 m.
SOLUTION We are given B, b, and a. We use the law of sines to find angle A.
sin A
a = sin B
b Law of sines (alternative form)
sin A 25.1
= sin 55° 40′ 8.94
Substitute the given values.
sin A = 25.1 sin 55° 40′ 8.94
Multiply by 25.1.
sin A ≈ 2.3184379 Use a calculator.
Choose a form that has the
unknown variable in the numerator.
Because sin A cannot be greater than 1, there can be no such angle A—and thus no triangle with the given information. An attempt to sketch such a triangle leads to the situation shown in Figure 9.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 17.

EXAMPLE 2 Solving the Ambiguous Case (Two Triangles)
Solve triangle ABC if A = 55.3°, a = 22.8 ft, and b = 24.9 ft.
SOLUTION To begin, use the law of sines to find angle B.
sin A
a = sin B
b
sin 55.3°
22.8 = sin B
24.9 Substitute the given values.
sin B = 24.9 sin 55.3° 22.8
Multiply by 24.9 and rewrite.
sin B ≈ 0.8978678 Use a calculator.
Solve for sin B.
There are two angles B between 0° and 180° that satisfy this condition. Because sin B ≈ 0.8978678, one value of angle B, to the nearest tenth, is
B1 = 63.9°. Use the inverse sine function.
Supplementary angles have the same sine value, so another possible value of B is
B2 = 180° - 63.9° = 116.1°.
To see whether B2 = 116.1° is a valid possibility, add 116.1° to the measure of A, 55.3°. Because 116.1° + 55.3° = 171.4°, and this sum is less than 180°, it is a valid angle measure for this triangle.
NOTE In the ambiguous case, we are given two sides and an angle opposite one of the sides (SSA). For example, suppose b, c, and angle C are given. This situation represents the ambiguous case because angle C is opposite side c.

Solve for c2 .
■✔ Now Try Exercise 25.
The ambiguous case results in zero, one, or two triangles. The following guide- lines can be used to determine how many triangles there are.
Number of Triangles Satisfying the Ambiguous Case (SSA)
Let sides a and b and angle A be given in triangle ABC. (The law of sines can be used to calculate the value of sin B.)
1. If applying the law of sines results in an equation having sin B 7 1, then no triangle satisfies the given conditions.
2. If sin B = 1, then one triangle satisfies the given conditions and B = 90°. 3. If 0 6 sin B 6 1, then either one or two triangles satisfy the given
conditions.
(a) If sin B = k, then let B1 = sin-1 k and use B1 for B in the first triangle. (b) Let B2 = 180° - B1. If A + B2 6 180°, then a second triangle exists.
In this case, use B2 for B in the second triangle.

3097.2 The Ambiguous Case of the Law of Sines
EXAMPLE 3 Solving the Ambiguous Case (One Triangle)
Solve triangle ABC, given A = 43.5°, a = 10.7 in., and c = 7.2 in.
SOLUTION Find angle C.
sin C
c = sin A
a Law of sines (alternative form)
sin C 7.2
= sin 43.5° 10.7
Substitute the given values.
sin C = 7.2 sin 43.5° 10.7
Multiply by 7.2.
sin C ≈ 0.46319186 Use a calculator.
C ≈ 27.6° Use the inverse sine function.
There is another angle C that has sine value 0.46319186. It is
C = 180° - 27.6° = 152.4°.
However, notice in the given information that c 6 a, meaning that in the tri- angle, angle C must have measure less than angle A. Notice also that when we add this obtuse value to the given angle A = 43.5°, we obtain
152.4° + 43.5° = 195.9°,
which is greater than 180°. Thus either of these approaches shows that there can be only one triangle. See Figure 11. The measure of angle B can be found next.
B = 180° - 27.6° - 43.5° Substitute. B = 108.9° Subtract.
We can find side b with the law of sines.

EXAMPLE 4 Analyzing Data Involving an Obtuse Angle
Without using the law of sines, explain why A = 104°, a = 26.8 m, and b = 31.3 m cannot be valid for a triangle ABC.
SOLUTION Because A is an obtuse angle, it is the largest angle, and so the longest side of the triangle must be a. However, we are given b 7 a.
Thus, B 7 A, which is impossible if A is obtuse.
Therefore, no such triangle ABC exists. ■✔ Now Try Exercise 33.

Relating Concepts
For individual or collaborative investigation. (Exercises 41—44)
Colors of the U.S. Flag The flag of the United States includes the colors red, white, and blue.
Which color is predominant?
Clearly the answer is either red or white. (It can be shown that only 18.73% of the total area is blue.) (Source: Banks, R., Slicing Pizzas, Racing Turtles, and Further Adventures in Applied Mathematics, Princeton University Press.)
To answer this question, work Exercises 41– 44 in order.
41. Let R denote the radius of the circumscribing circle of a five-pointed star ap- pearing on the American flag. The star can be decomposed into ten congruent triangles. In the figure, r is the radius of the circumscribing circle of the penta- gon in the interior of the star. Show that the area of a star is

42. Angles A and B have values 18° and 36°, respectively. Express the area ! of a star in terms of its radius, R.
43. To determine whether red or white is predominant, we must know the measure- ments of the flag. Consider a flag of width 10 in., length 19 in., length of each upper stripe 11.4 in., and radius R of the circumscribing circle of each star 0.308 in. The thirteen stripes consist of six matching pairs of red and white stripes and one additional red, upper stripe. Therefore, we must compare the area of a red, upper stripe with the total area of the 50 white stars.
(a) Compute the area of the red, upper stripe.
(b) Compute the total area of the 50 white stars.
44. Which color occupies the greatest area on the flag?
7.3 The Law of Cosines
If we are given two sides and the included angle (Case 3) or three sides (Case 4) of a triangle, then a unique triangle is determined. These are the SAS and SSS cases, respectively. Both require using the law of cosines to solve the triangle.
The following property is important when applying the law of cosines.

■ Solutions of SAS and SSS Triangles (Cases 3 and 4)
■ Heron’s Formula for the Area of a Triangle
■ Derivation of Heron’s Formula
Triangle Side Length Restriction
In any triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the remaining side.
M07_LHSD7642_11_AIE_C07_pp295-354.indd 312 30/11/15 12:14 pm
3137.3 The Law of Cosines
As an example of this property, it would be impossible to construct a tri- angle with sides of lengths 3, 4, and 10. See Figure 12.
a = 3
c = 10
b = 4
No triangle is formed.
Figure 12
Law of Cosines
In any triangle ABC, with sides a, b, and c, the following hold.
a2 = b2 + c2 − 2bc cos A
b2 = a2 + c2 − 2ac cos B
c2 = a2 + b2 − 2ab cos C
That is, according to the law of cosines, the square of a side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, minus twice the product of those two sides and the cosine of the angle included between them.
Derivation of the Law of Cosines To derive the law of cosines, let ABC be any oblique triangle. Choose a coordinate system so that vertex B is at the origin and side BC is along the positive x-axis. See Figure 13.
Let 1x, y2 be the coordinates of vertex A of the triangle. Then the following are true for angle B, whether obtuse or acute.
sin B = y c and cos B = x
c Definition of sine and cosine
y = c sin B and x = c cos B Here x is negative when B is obtuse.
Thus, the coordinates of point A become 1c cos B, c sin B2. Point C in Figure 13 has coordinates 1a, 02, AC has length b, and point A
has coordinates 1c cos B, c sin B2. We can use the distance formula to write an equation.
b = 21c cos B - a22 + 1c sin B - 022 d = 21x2 - x122 + 1y2 - y122 b2 = 1c cos B - a22 + 1c sin B22 Square each side. b2 = 1c2 cos2 B - 2ac cos B + a22 + c2 sin2 B Multiply; 1x - y22 = x2 - 2xy + y2 b2 = a2 + c21cos2 B + sin2 B2 - 2ac cos B Properties of real numbers b2 = a2 + c2112 - 2ac cos B Fundamental identity b2 = a2 + c2 - 2ac cos B Law of cosines
This result is one of three possible forms of the law of cosines. In our work, we could just as easily have placed vertex A or C at the origin. This would have given the same result, but with the variables rearranged.

Solutions of SAS and SSS Triangles (Cases 3 and 4)
NOTE If we let C = 90° in the third form of the law of cosines, then cos C = cos 90° = 0, and the formula becomes
c2 = a2 + b2. Pythagorean theorem
The Pythagorean theorem is a special case of the law of cosines.
EXAMPLE 1 Applying the Law of Cosines (SAS)
A surveyor wishes to find the distance between two inaccessible points A and B on opposite sides of a lake. While standing at point C, she finds that b = 259 m, a = 423 m, and angle ACB measures 132° 40′. Find the distance c. See Figure 14.
SOLUTION We can use the law of cosines here because we know the lengths of two sides of the triangle and the measure of the included angle.
c2 = a2 + b2 - 2ab cos C Law of cosines c2 = 4232 + 2592 - 21423212592 cos 132° 40′ Substitute. c2 ≈ 394,510.6 Use a calculator.
c ≈ 628 Take the square root of each side. Choose the positive root. The distance between the points is approximately 628 m. ■✔ Now Try Exercise 39.

EXAMPLE 2 Applying the Law of Cosines (SAS)
Solve triangle ABC if A = 42.3°, b = 12.9 m, and c = 15.4 m.
SOLUTION See Figure 15. We start by finding side a with the law of cosines.
a2 = b2 + c2 - 2bc cos A Law of cosines a2 = 12.92 + 15.42 - 2112.92115.42 cos 42.3° Substitute. a2 ≈ 109.7 Use a calculator.
a ≈ 10.47 m Take square roots and choose the positive root. Of the two remaining angles B and C, B must be the smaller because it is oppo- site the shorter of the two sides b and c. Therefore, B cannot be obtuse.
sin A
a = sin B
b Law of sines (alternative form)
sin 42.3°
10.47 = sin B
12.9 Substitute.
sin B = 12.9 sin 42.3° 10.47
Multiply by 12.9 and rewrite.
B ≈ 56.0° Use the inverse sine function.
The easiest way to find C is to subtract the measures of A and B from 180°.
C = 180° - A - B Angle sum formula, solved for C C ≈ 180° - 42.3° - 56.0° Substitute. C ≈ 81.7° Subtract. ■✔ Now Try Exercise 19.

3157.3 The Law of Cosines
CAUTION Had we used the law of sines to find C rather than B in Example 2, we would not have known whether C was equal to 81.7° or to its supplement, 98.3°.
EXAMPLE 3 Applying the Law of Cosines (SSS)
Solve triangle ABC if a = 9.47 ft, b = 15.9 ft, and c = 21.1 ft.
SOLUTION We can use the law of cosines to solve for any angle of the triangle. We solve for C, the largest angle. We will know that C is obtuse if cos C 6 0.
c2 = a2 + b2 - 2ab cos C Law of cosines
cos C = a 2 + b2 - c2
2ab Solve for cos C.
cos C = 9.47 2 + 15.92 - 21.12 219.472115.92 Substitute.
cos C ≈ -0.34109402 Use a calculator. C ≈ 109.9° Use the inverse cosine function.
Now use the law of sines to find angle B.
sin B
b = sin C
c Law of sines (alternative form)
sin B 15.9
= sin 109.9° 21.1
Substitute.
sin B = 15.9 sin 109.9° 21.1
Multiply by 15.9.
B ≈ 45.1° Use the inverse sine function.
Since A = 180° - B - C, we have A ≈ 180° - 45.1° - 109.9° ≈ 25.0°. ■✔ Now Try Exercise 23.
Trusses are frequently used to support roofs on buildings, as illustrated in Figure 16. The simplest type of roof truss is a triangle, as shown in Figure 17. (Source: Riley, W., L. Sturges, and D. Morris, Statics and Mechanics of Materials, John Wiley and Sons.)Figure 16

316 CHAPTER 7 Applications of Trigonometry and Vectors
Four possible cases can occur when we solve an oblique triangle. They are summarized in the following table. In all four cases, it is assumed that the given information actually produces a triangle.
Four Cases for Solving Oblique Triangles
Oblique Triangle Suggested Procedure for Solving
Case 1: One side and two angles are known. (SAA or ASA)
Step 1 Find the remaining angle using the angle sum formula 1A + B + C = 180°2.
Step 2 Find the remaining sides using the law of sines.
Case 2: Two sides and one angle (not included between the two sides) are known. (SSA)
This is the ambiguous case. There may be no triangle, one triangle, or two triangles.
Step 1 Find an angle using the law of sines.
Step 2 Find the remaining angle using the angle sum formula.
Step 3 Find the remaining side using the law of sines.
If two triangles exist, repeat Steps 2 and 3.
Case 3: Two sides and the included angle are known. (SAS)
Step 1 Find the third side using the law of cosines.
Step 2 Find the smaller of the two remaining angles using the law of sines.
Step 3 Find the remaining angle using the angle sum formula.
Case 4: Three sides are known. (SSS)
Step 1 Find the largest angle using the law of cosines.
Step 2 Find either remaining angle using the law of sines.
Step 3 Find the remaining angle using the angle sum formula.
Heron of Alexandria (c. 62 CE)
Heron (also called Hero), a Greek geometer and inventor, produced writings that contain knowledge of the mathematics and engineering of Babylonia, ancient Egypt, and the Greco-Roman world.
Heron’s Area Formula (SSS)
If a triangle has sides of lengths a, b, and c, with semiperimeter
s = 1 2
1a + b + c 2 , then the area & of the triangle is given by the following formula.
& = !s 1s − a 2 1s − b 2 1s − c 2 That is, according to Heron’s formula, the area of a triangle is the square root of the product of four factors: (1) the semiperimeter, (2) the semiperimeter minus the first side, (3) the semiperimeter minus the second side, and (4) the semiperimeter minus the third side.
Heron’s Formula for the Area of a Triangle A formula for finding the area of a triangle given the lengths of the three sides, known as Heron’s for- mula, is named after the Greek mathematician Heron of Alexandria. It is found in his work Metrica. Heron’s formula can be used for the case SSS.

EXAMPLE 5 Using Heron’s Formula to Find an Area (SSS)
The distance “as the crow flies” from Los Angeles to New York is 2451 mi, from New York to Montreal is 331 mi, and from Montreal to Los Angeles is 2427 mi. What is the area of the triangular region having these three cities as vertices? (Ignore the curvature of Earth.)

Don’t forget the factor s.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 73.
Derivation of Heron’s Formula A trigonometric derivation of Heron’s formula illustrates some ingenious manipulation.
Let triangle ABC have sides of lengths a, b, and c. Apply the law of cosines.
a2 = b2 + c2 - 2bc cos A Law of cosines
cos A = b 2 + c2 - a2
2bc Solve for cos A. (1)
The perimeter of the triangle is a + b + c, so half of the perimeter (the semi- perimeter) is given by the formula in equation (2) below.
s = 1 2
1a + b + c2 (2) 2s = a + b + c Multiply by 2. (3)
b + c - a = 2s - 2a Subtract 2a from each side and rewrite. b + c - a = 21s - a2 Factor. (4)
Subtract 2b and 2c in a similar way in equation (3) to obtain the following.
a - b + c = 21s - b2 (5) a + b - c = 21s - c2 (6)

We have introduced two new formulas for the area of a triangle in this chapter. We can now find the area & of a triangle using one of three formulas.

7.4 Geometrically Defined Vectors and Applications
Basic Terminology Quantities that involve magnitudes, such as 45 lb or 60 mph, can be represented by real numbers called scalars. Other quantities, called vector quantities, involve both magnitude and direction. Typical vector quantities are velocity, acceleration, and force. For example, traveling 50 mph east represents a vector quantity.
A vector quantity can be represented with a directed line segment (a seg- ment that uses an arrowhead to indicate direction) called a vector. The length of the vector represents the magnitude of the vector quantity. The direction of the vector, indicated by the arrowhead, represents the direction of the quantity. See Figure 19.

Vectors may be named with two uppercase letters or with one lowercase or uppercase letter.

When we indicate vectors in print, it is customary to use boldface type or an arrow over the letter or letters. Thus, OP and OP
> both represent the vector OP.
When two letters name a vector, the first indicates the initial point and the second indicates the terminal point of the vector. Knowing these points gives the direc- tion of the vector. For example, vectors OP and PO in Figure 20 are not the same vector. They have the same magnitude but opposite directions. The magnitude of vector OP is written ∣OP ∣ .

3277.4 Geometrically Defined Vectors and Applications
Two vectors are equal if and only if they have the same direction and the same magnitude. In Figure 21, vectors A and B are equal, as are vectors C and D. As Figure 21 shows, equal vectors need not coincide, but they must be paral- lel and in the same direction. Vectors A and E are unequal because they do not have the same direction, while A ≠ F because they have different magnitudes.
A B C D E F
Figure 21
The sum of two vectors is also a vector. There are two ways to find the sum of two vectors A and B geometrically.
1. Place the initial point of vector B at the terminal point of vector A, as shown in Figure 22(a). The vector with the same initial point as A and the same terminal point as B is the sum A + B.
2. Use the parallelogram rule. Place vectors A and B so that their initial points coincide, as in Figure 22(b). Then, complete a parallelogram that has A and B as two sides. The diagonal of the parallelogram with the same initial point as A and B is the sum A + B.
Parallelograms can be used to show that vector B + A is the same as vec- tor A + B, or that A + B = B + A, so vector addition is commutative. The vector sum A + B is the resultant of vectors A and B.
For every vector v there is a vector -v that has the same magnitude as v but opposite direction. Vector -v is the opposite of v. See Figure 23. The sum of v and -v has magnitude 0 and is the zero vector. As with real numbers, to subtract vector B from vector A, find the vector sum A + 1-B2. See Figure 24.

The following properties are helpful when solving vector applications.
Geometric Properties of Parallelograms
1. A parallelogram is a quadrilateral whose opposite sides are parallel.
2. The opposite sides and opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal, and adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary.
3. The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, but they do not nec- essarily bisect the angles of the parallelogram.

EXAMPLE 1 Finding the Magnitude of a Resultant
Two forces of 15 and 22 newtons act on a point in the plane. (A newton is a unit of force that equals 0.225 lb.) If the angle between the forces is 100°, find the magnitude of the resultant force.
SOLUTION As shown in Figure 26, a parallelogram that has the forces as adjacent sides can be formed. The angles of the parallelogram adjacent to angle P measure 80° because adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supple- mentary. Opposite sides of the parallelogram are equal in length. The resultant force divides the parallelogram into two triangles. Use the law of cosines with either triangle.

Incline Applications We can use vectors to solve incline problems.
EXAMPLE 3 Finding a Required Force
Find the force required to keep a 50-lb wagon from sliding down a ramp inclined at 20° to the horizontal. (Assume there is no friction.)
SOLUTION In Figure 28, the vertical 50-lb force BA represents the force of gravity. It is the sum of vectors BC and -AC. The vector BC represents the force with which the weight pushes against the ramp. The vector BF represents the force that would pull the weight up the ramp. Because vectors BF and AC are equal, +AC + gives the magnitude of the required force.
Vectors BF and AC are parallel, so angle EBD equals angle A by alternate interior angles. Because angle BDE and angle C are right angles, triangles CBA and DEB have two corresponding angles equal and, thus, are similar triangles. Therefore, angle ABC equals angle E, which is 20°. From right triangle ABC, we have the following.
sin 20° = +AC +
50 sin B = side opposite Bhypotenuse
+AC + = 50 sin 20° Multiply by 50 and rewrite. +AC + ≈17 Use a calculator.

Navigation Applications Problems that involve bearing can also be solved using vectors.
EXAMPLE 5 Applying Vectors to a Navigation Problem
A ship leaves port on a bearing of 28.0° and travels 8.20 mi. The ship then turns due east and travels 4.30 mi. How far is the ship from port? What is its bearing from port?
SOLUTION In Figure 30, vectors PA and AE represent the ship’s path. The magnitude and bear- ing of the resultant PE can be found as follows. Triangle PNA is a right triangle, so
angle NAP = 90° - 28.0° = 62.0°, and angle PAE = 180° - 62.0° = 118.0°.
Use the law of cosines to find +PE + , the magnitude of vector PE.
+PE +2 = 8.202 + 4.302 - 218.20214.302 cos 118.0° Law of cosines +PE +2 ≈ 118.84 Use a calculator.

Vector c represents the airspeed and bearing of the plane, vector a repre- sents the speed and direction of the wind, and vector b represents the resulting bearing and ground speed of the plane. Angle ABC has as its measure the sum of angle ABN1 and angle N1BC.
Angle SAB measures 239° - 180° = 59°. Because angle ABN1 is an alternate interior angle to it, ABN1 = 59°. Angle E1BF measures 115° - 90° = 25°. Thus, angle CBW1 also measures 25° because it is a vertical angle. Angle N1BC is the complement of 25°, which is 90° - 25° = 65°.
By these results,
angle ABC = 59° + 65° = 124°.

The ground speed is approximately 446 mph. To find the resulting bearing of b, we must find the measure of angle a in

Barnard’s Star is a relatively close star with a distance of 35 trillion mi from the sun. It moves across the sky through an angle of 10.34″ per year, which is the largest motion of any known star. Its radial velocity vr is 67 mi per sec toward the sun. (Sources: Zeilik, M., S. Gregory, and E.

336 CHAPTER 7 Applications of Trigonometry and Vectors
LOOKING AHEAD TO CALCULUS In addition to two-dimensional vectors
in a plane, calculus courses introduce
three-dimensional vectors in space.
The magnitude of the two-dimensional
vector 8a, b9 is given by2a2 + b2. If we extend this to the three-
dimensional vector 8a, b, c9 , the expression becomes2a2 + b2 + c2. Similar extensions are made for other
concepts.
7.5 Algebraically Defined Vectors and the Dot Product
Algebraic Interpretation of Vectors A vector with initial point at the origin in a rectangular coordi- nate system is a position vector . A position vector u with endpoint at the point 1a, b2 is written 8a, b9 , so
u = 8a, b9 . This means that every vector in the real plane cor- responds to an ordered pair of real numbers. Thus, geometrically a vector is a directed line segment while algebraically it is an ordered pair. The numbers a and b are the horizontal component and the vertical component, respectively, of vector u.
Figure 33 shows the vector u = 8a, b9 . The positive angle between the x-axis and a position vector is the direction angle for the vector. In Figure 33, u is the direction angle for vector u. The magnitude and direction angle of a vector are related to its horizontal and vertical components.

∣u ∣ = !a2 + b2 The direction angle u satisfies tan u = ba , where a ≠ 0.
EXAMPLE 1 Finding Magnitude and Direction Angle
Find the magnitude and direction angle for u = 83, -29 . ALGEBRAIC SOLUTION
The magnitude is +u + = 232 + 1-222 = 213. To find the direction angle u, start with tan u = ba =
-2 3 =
- 23 . Vector u has a positive horizontal component and a negative vertical component, which places the position vector in quadrant IV. A calculator then gives
tan-1 1- 232 ≈ -33.7°. Adding 360° yields the direction angle u ≈ 326.3°. See Figure 34.
GRAPHING CALCULATOR SOLUTION
The TI-84 Plus calculator can find the magnitude and direction angle using rectangular to polar conversion (which is covered in detail in the next chapter). An approximation for 213 is given, and the TI-84 Plus gives the direction angle with the least possible absolute value. We must add 360° to the given value -33.7° to obtain the positive direction angle u ≈ 326.3°.

a = +w + cos u b = +w + sin u a = 25.0 cos 41.7° b = 25.0 sin 41.7° a ≈ 18.7 b ≈ 16.6

The Dot Product and the Angle between Vectors The dot product of two vectors is a real number, not a vector. It is also known as the inner product. Dot products are used to determine the angle between two vectors, to derive geometric theorems, and to solve physics problems.
Dot Product
The dot product of the two vectors u = 8a, b9 and v = 8c, d9 is denoted u # v, read “u dot v,” and given by the following.
u # v = ac + bd
That is, the dot product of two vectors is the sum of the product of their first components and the product of their second components.

The proofs of the remaining properties are similar. The dot product of two vectors can be positive,
0, or negative. A geometric interpretation of the dot product explains when each of these cases occurs. This interpretation involves the angle between the two vectors.
Consider the two vectors u = 8a1, a29 and v = 8b1, b29 , as shown in Figure 43. The angle U between u and v is defined to be the angle having the two vectors as its sides for which 0° … u … 180°.

Concepts Examples
Solve triangle ABC, given A = 44.5°, a = 11.0 in., and c = 7.0 in.
Find angle C.
sin C 7.0
= sin 44.5° 11.0
Law of sines
sin C ≈ 0.4460 Solve for sin C.
C ≈ 26.5° Use the inverse sine function.
Another angle with this sine value is
180° - 26.5° ≈ 153.5°.
However, 153.5° + 44.5° 7 180°, so there is only one triangle.
B = 180° - 44.5° - 26.5° Angle sum formula
B = 109° Subtract.
Use the law of sines again to solve for b.
b ≈ 14.8 in.
Ambiguous Case If we are given the lengths of two sides and the angle oppo- site one of them (for example, A, a, and b in triangle ABC), then it is possible that zero, one, or two such triangles exist. If A is acute, h is the altitude from C, and
a 6 h 6 b, then there is no triangle. a = h and h 6 b, then there is one triangle (a right triangle).
a Ú b, then there is one triangle. h 6 a 6 b, then there are two triangles.
If A is obtuse and
a … b, then there is no triangle. a 7 b, then there is one triangle.
See the guidelines in this section that illustrate the possible outcomes.
The Ambiguous Case of the Law of Sines7.2
The Law of Cosines
Law of Cosines In any triangle ABC, with sides a, b, and c, the following hold.
a2 = b2 + c2 − 2bc cos A
b2 = a2 + c2 − 2 ac cos B
c2 = a2 + b2 − 2 ab cos C
Heron’s Area Formula If a triangle has sides of lengths a, b, and c, with semi- perimeter
s = 1 2
1a + b + c 2 , then the area & of the triangle is given by the following.
& = !s 1s − a 2 1s − b 2 1s − c 2
7.3
In triangle ABC, find C if a = 11 units, b = 13 units, and c = 20 units. Then find its area.
c2 = a2 + b2 - 2ab cos C Law of cosines
202 = 112 + 132 - 211121132 cos C Substitute.
400 = 121 + 169 - 286 cos C Square and multiply.
cos C = 400 - 121 - 169-286 Solve for cos C.
cos C ≈ -0.38461538 Use a calculator.
C ≈ 113° Use the inverse cosine function.
The semiperimeter s of the above triangle is
s = 1 2
111 + 13 + 202 = 22, so the area is
& = 222122 - 112122 - 132122 - 202 & = 66 sq units.

356 CHAPTER 8 Complex Numbers, Polar Equations, and Parametric Equations
Basic Concepts of Complex Numbers There is no real number solution of the equation
x2 = −1
because no real number, when squared, gives -1. To extend the real number system to include solutions of equations of this type, the number i is defined.
8.1 Complex Numbers ■ Basic Concepts of
Complex Numbers ■ Complex Solutions of
Quadratic Equations (Part 1)
■ Operations on Complex Numbers
■ Complex Solutions of Quadratic Equations (Part 2)
■ Powers of i
Two complex numbers a + bi and c + di are equal provided that their real parts are equal and their imaginary parts are equal.
The following important concepts apply to a complex number a + bi.
1. If b = 0, then a + bi = a, which is a real number. (This means that the set of real numbers is a subset of the set of complex numbers. See Figure 2 on the next page.)
2. If b ≠ 0, then a + bi is a nonreal complex number. Examples: 7 + 2i, -1 - i 3. If a = 0 and b ≠ 0, then the nonreal complex number is a pure imaginary
number. Examples: 3i, -16i
The form a + bi (or a + ib) is standard form. (The form a + ib is used to write expressions such as i 25 because 25i could be mistaken for 25i .)
Imaginary Unit i
i = !−1, and therefore i2 = −1. (Note that - i is also a square root of -1.)
Complex Number
If a and b are real numbers, then any number of the form a + bi is a complex number. In the complex number a + bi, a is the real part and b is the imaginary part.*
*In some texts, the term bi is defined to be the imaginary part.
LOOKING AHEAD TO CALCULUS The letters j and k are also used to
represent 2-1 in calculus and some applications (electronics, for example).
Square roots of negative numbers were not incorporated into an integrated number system until the 16th century. They were then used as solutions of equa- tions. Today, complex numbers are used extensively in science and engineering.
The calculator is in complex number mode. This screen supports the definition of i and shows how the calculator returns the real and imaginary parts of the complex number 7 + 2i.
Figure 1
Equality of Complex Numbers
a + bi = c + di if and only if a = c and b = d.
Some graphing calculators, such as the TI-84 Plus, are capable of working with complex numbers, as seen in Figure 1. ■

CAUTION When working with negative radicands, use the definition !−a = i !a before using any of the other rules for radicals. In par- ticular, the rule 2c # 2d = 2cd is valid only when c and d are not both negative. For example, consider the following.
2-4 # 2-9 = 2i # 3i = 6i2 = -6 Correct 2-4 # 2-9 = 21-421-92 = 236 = 6 Incorrect
Operations on Complex Numbers Products or quotients with negative radicands are simplified by first rewriting2-a as i2a, for a positive number a. Then the properties of real numbers and the fact that i2 = -1 are applied.

Powers of i Powers of i can be simplified using the facts
i2 = -1 and i4 = 1i222 = 1-122 = 1. Consider the following powers of i.
i1 = i i5 = i4 # i = 1 # i = i i2 = -1 i6 = i4 # i2 = 11-12 = -1 i3 = i2 # i = 1-12 # i = - i i7 = i4 # i3 = 1 # 1- i2 = - i i4 = i2 # i2 = 1-121-12 = 1 i8 = i4 # i4 = 1 # 1 = 1 and so on.
Powers of i cycle through the same four outcomes (i, −1, − i, and 1) because i4 has the same multiplicative property as 1. It follows that a power of i with an exponent that is a multiple of 4 has value 1.

109. Suppose a friend says that she has discovered a method of simplifying a positive power of i:
“Just divide the exponent by 4. The answer is i raised to the remainder.”
Explain why her method works.
110. Why does the following method of simplifying i -42 work?
i -42 = i -42 # i44 = i2 = -1 (Modeling) Impedance Impedance is a measure of the opposition to the flow of alter- nating electrical current found in common electrical outlets. It consists of two parts, resistance and reactance. Resistance occurs when a light bulb is turned on, while reac- tance is produced when electricity passes through a coil of wire like that found in electric motors. Impedance Z in ohms 1Ω2 can be expressed as a complex number, where the real part represents resistance and the imaginary part represents reactance.
For example, if the resistive part is 3 ohms and the reactive part is 4 ohms, then the impedance could be described by the complex number Z = 3 + 4i. In the series circuit shown in the figure, the total impedance will be the sum of the individual impedances. (Source: Wilcox, G. and C. Hesselberth, Electricity for Engineering Technology, Allyn & Bacon.)
111. The circuit contains two light bulbs and two electric motors. Assuming that the light bulbs are pure resistive and the motors are pure reactive, find the total imped- ance in this circuit and express it in the form Z = a + bi.

tan u = ba . Find u, to the nearest hundredth, for this circuit.

(Modeling) Ohm’s Law Complex numbers are used to describe current I, voltage E, and impedance Z (the opposition to current). These three quantities are related by the equation
E = IZ, which is known as Ohm’s law.
Thus, if any two of these quantities are known, the third can be found. In each exercise, solve the equation E = IZ for the missing variable.

366 CHAPTER 8 Complex Numbers, Polar Equations, and Parametric Equations
Recall that the sum of the two complex numbers 4 + i and 1 + 3i is14 + i2 + 11 + 3i2 = 5 + 4i. Graphically, the sum of two complex numbers is represented by the vector that is the resultant of the vectors corresponding to the two numbers. See Figure 4.
8.2 Trigonometric (Polar) Form of Complex Numbers
The Complex Plane and Vector Representation Unlike real numbers, complex numbers cannot be ordered. One way to organize and illustrate them is by using a graph in a rectangular coordinate system.
To graph a complex number such as 2 - 3i, we modify the coordinate system by calling the horizontal axis the real axis and the vertical axis the imaginary axis. Then complex numbers can be graphed in this complex plane, as shown in Figure 3. Each complex number a + bi determines a unique position vector with initial point 10, 0 2 and terminal point 1a, b 2 .

3678.2 Trigonometric (Polar) Form of Complex Numbers
Trigonometric (Polar) Form of a Complex Number
The trigonometric form (or polar form) of the complex number x + yi is r 1cos U + i sin U 2 .
The expression cos u + i sin u is sometimes abbreviated cis U. Using this notation, r 1cos U + i sin U 2 is written r cis U.
The number r is the absolute value (or modulus) of x + yi, and u is the argument of x + yi. In this section, we choose the value of u in the interval 30°, 360°2. Any angle coterminal with u also could serve as the argument.
Converting from Rectangular to Trigonometric Form
Step 1 Sketch a graph of the number x + yi in the complex plane.
Step 2 Find r by using the equation r = 2x2 + y2. Step 3 Find u by using the equation tan u = yx , where x ≠ 0, choosing the
quadrant indicated in Step 1.
CAUTION Errors often occur in Step 3. Be sure to choose the correct quadrant for U by referring to the graph sketched in Step 1.
Converting between Rectangular and Trigonometric (Polar) Forms To convert from rectangular form to trigonometric form, we use the following procedure.
ALGEBRAIC SOLUTION
21cos 300° + i sin 300°2 = 2¢ 1
2 - i 23
2 ≤ cos 300° = 12 ; sin 300° = - 232
= 1 - i23 Distributive property Note that the real part is positive and the imaginary part is negative. This is consistent with 300° being a quad- rant IV angle. For a 300° angle, the reference angle is 60°. Thus the function values cos 300° and sin 300° cor- respond in absolute value to those of cos 60° and sin 60°, with the first of these equal to 12 and the second equal
to - 232 .

In Figure 7, the first result confirms the algebraic solu- tion, where an approximation for -23 is used for the imaginary part (from the second result). The TI-84 Plus also converts from polar to rectangular form, as seen in the third and fourth results.

(b) See Figure 9. Because -3i = 0 - 3i, we have x = 0 and y = -3.
r = 202 + 1-322 = 20 + 9 = 29 = 3 Substitute. We cannot find u by using tan u = yx because x = 0. However, the graph shows that the least positive value for u is 270°.

See Example 3(a). The TI-84 Plus converts from rectangular form to polar form. The value of u in the second result is an approximation for 5p 6 , as shown in the third result.
EXAMPLE 3 Converting from Rectangular to Trigonometric Form
Write each complex number in trigonometric form.
(a) -23 + i (Use radian measure.) (b) -3i (Use degree measure.) SOLUTION
(a) We start by sketching the graph of -23 + i in the complex plane, as shown in Figure 8. Next, we use x = -23 and y = 1 to find r and u.
r = 2x2 + y2 = 4A -23 B2 + 12 = 23 + 1 = 2 tan u =
y x
= 1 -23 = - 123 # 2323 = - 233 Rationalize the denominator.
Because tan u = - 233 , the reference angle for u in radians is p6 . From the graph, we see that u is in quadrant II, so u = p - p6 =
5p 6 .

EXAMPLE 5 Deciding Whether a Complex Number Is in the Julia Set
The fractal called the Julia set is shown in Figure 11. To determine whether a complex number z = a + bi is in this Julia set, perform the following sequence of calculations.
z2 - 1, 1z2 - 122 - 1, 31z2 - 122 - 142 - 1, . . . If the absolute values of any of the resulting complex numbers exceed 2, then the complex number z is not in the Julia set. Otherwise z is part of this set and the point 1a, b2 should be shaded in the graph.
Figure 11
Determine whether each number belongs to the Julia set.
(a) z = 0 + 0i (b) z = 1 + 1i SOLUTION
(a) Here z = 0 + 0i = 0,
z2 - 1 = 0 2 - 1 = -1, 1z2 - 122 - 1 = 1-122 - 1 = 0, 31z2 - 122 - 142 - 1 = 0 2 - 1 = -1, and so on.
We see that the calculations repeat as 0, -1, 0, -1, and so on. The absolute values are either 0 or 1, which do not exceed 2, so 0 + 0i is in the Julia set and the point 10, 02 is part of the graph.
An Application of Complex Numbers to Fractals At its basic level, a fractal is a unique, enchanting geometric figure with an endless self-similarity property. A fractal image repeats itself infinitely with ever-decreasing dimensions. If we look at smaller and smaller portions, we will continue to see the whole—it is much like looking into two parallel mirrors that are facing each other.

(b) For z = 1 + 1i, we have the following. z2 - 1
= 11 + i22 - 1 Substitute for z; 1 + 1i = 1 + i. = 11 + 2i + i22 - 1 Square the binomial; 1x + y22 = x2 + 2xy + y2. = -1 + 2i i2 = -1
The absolute value is 21-122 + 22 = 25. Because 25 is greater than 2, the number 1 + 1i is not in the Julia set and 11, 12 is not part of the graph.

8.4 De Moivre’s Theorem; Powers and Roots of Complex Numbers
Powers of Complex Numbers (De Moivre’s Theorem) Because raising a number to a positive integer power is a repeated application of the product rule, it would seem likely that a theorem for finding powers of complex numbers exists. Consider the following.3r 1cos u + i sin u242
= 3r 1cos u + i sin u243r 1cos u + i sin u24 a2 = a # a = r # r3cos1u + u2 + i sin1u + u24 Product theorem = r21cos 2u + i sin 2u2 Multiply and add.
In the same way,3r 1cos u + i sin u243 is equivalent to r31cos 3u + i sin 3u2. These results suggest the following theorem for positive integer values of n. Although the theorem is stated and can be proved for all n, we use it only for positive integer values of n and their reciprocals.

3798.4 De Moivre’s Theorem; Powers and Roots of Complex Numbers
Roots of Complex Numbers Every nonzero complex number has exactly n distinct complex nth roots. De Moivre’s theorem can be extended to find all nth roots of a complex number.
To find the three complex cube roots of 81cos 135° + i sin 135°2, for example, look for a complex number, say r 1cos a + i sin a2, that will satisfy3r 1cos a + i sin a243 = 81cos 135° + i sin 135°2.
By De Moivre’s theorem, this equation becomes
r31cos 3a + i sin 3a2 = 81cos 135° + i sin 135°2. Set r3 = 8 and cos 3a + i sin 3a = cos 135° + i sin 135°, to satisfy this equa- tion. The first of these conditions implies that r = 2, and the second implies that
cos 3a = cos 135° and sin 3a = sin 135°.
For these equations to be satisfied, 3a must represent an angle that is coterminal with 135°. Therefore, we must have
3a = 135° + 360° # k, k any integer or a = 135° + 360°
# k 3
, k any integer.
Now, let k take on the integer values 0, 1, and 2.
If k = 0, then a = 135° + 360° # 0
3 = 45°.
If k = 1, then a = 135° + 360° # 1
3 = 495°
3 = 165°.
If k = 2, then a = 135° + 360° # 2
3 = 855°
3 = 285°.
In the same way, a = 405° when k = 3. But note that 405° = 45° + 360°, so sin 405° = sin 45° and cos 405° = cos 45°. Similarly, if k = 4, then a = 525°, which has the same sine and cosine values as 165°. Continuing with larger val- ues of k would repeat solutions already found. Therefore, all of the cube roots (three of them) can be found by letting k = 0, 1, and 2, respectively.
When k = 0, the root is 21cos 45° + i sin 45°2. When k = 1, the root is 21cos 165° + i sin 165°2. When k = 2, the root is 21cos 285° + i sin 285°2.
In summary, we see that 21cos 45° + i sin 45°2, 21cos 165° + i sin 165°2, and 21cos 285° + i sin 285°2 are the three cube roots of 81cos 135° + i sin 135°2.

For a positive integer n, the complex number a + bi is an nth root of the complex number x + yi if the following holds.1a + bi 2n = x + yi

SOLUTION First write 4i in trigonometric form.
4 acos p 2

Here r = 4 and u = p2 . The square roots have absolute value 24 = 2 and argu- ments as follows.
a = p 2
2 + 2pk
2 = p
4 + pk
Because there are two square roots, let k = 0 and 1.
If k = 0, then a = p 4
+ p # 0 = p 4
.
If k = 1, then a = p 4
+ p # 1 = 5p 4
.
Using these values for a, the square roots are 2 cis p4 and 2 cis 5p 4 , which can
be written in rectangular form as22 + i22 and -22 - i22. ■✔ Now Try Exercise 23(a).
Be careful simplifying here.

3818.4 De Moivre’s Theorem; Powers and Roots of Complex Numbers
Because there are four fourth roots, let k = 0, 1, 2, and 3.
If k = 0, then a = 30° + 90° # 0 = 30°. If k = 1, then a = 30° + 90° # 1 = 120°. If k = 2, then a = 30° + 90° # 2 = 210°. If k = 3, then a = 30° + 90° # 3 = 300°.
Using these angles, the fourth roots are
2 cis 30°, 2 cis 120°, 2 cis 210°, and 2 cis 300°.
These four roots can be written in rectangular form as23 + i, -1 + i23, -23 - i, and 1 - i23. The graphs of these roots lie on a circle with center at the origin and radius 2. See Figure 12. The roots are equally spaced about the circle, 90° apart. (For con- venience, we label the real axis x and the imaginary axis y.)
EXAMPLE 4 Solving an Equation (Complex Roots)
Find all complex number solutions of x5 - 1 = 0. Graph them as vectors in the complex plane.
SOLUTION Write the equation as

A fractal of this type can be generated by repeatedly evaluating the function
ƒ1z2 = 2z3 + 1 3z2
,
where z is a complex number. We begin by picking z1 = a + bi and successively computing z2 = ƒ1z12, z3 = ƒ1z22, z4 = ƒ1z32, . . . . Suppose that if the resulting val- ues of ƒ1z2 approach w1, we color the pixel at 1a, b2 red. If they approach w2, we color it blue, and if they approach w3, we color it yellow. If this process continues for a large number of different z1, a fractal similar to the figure will appear. Deter- mine the appropriate color of the pixel for each value of z1.

8.5 Polar Equations and Graphs
Polar Coordinate System Previously we have used the rectangular coor- dinate system to graph points and equations. In the rectangular coordinate system, each point in the plane is specified by giving two numbers 1x, y2. These repre- sent the directed distances from a pair of perpendicular axes, the x-axis and the y-axis.
Now we consider the polar coordinate system which is based on a point, called the pole, and a ray, called the polar axis. The polar axis is usually drawn in the direction of the positive x-axis, as shown in Figure 14.

386 CHAPTER 8 Complex Numbers, Polar Equations, and Parametric Equations
In Figure 15 the pole has been placed at the origin of a rectangular coordi- nate system so that the polar axis coincides with the positive x-axis. Point P has rectangular coordinates 1x, y2. Point P can also be located by giving the directed angle u from the positive x-axis to ray OP and the directed distance r from the pole to point P. The ordered pair 1r, u2 gives the polar coordinates of point P. If r 7 0 then point P lies on the terminal side of u, and if r 6 0 then point P lies on the ray pointing in the opposite direction of the terminal side of u, a distance ( r ( from the pole.
Figure 16 shows rectangular axes superimposed on a polar coordinate grid.

388 CHAPTER 8 Complex Numbers, Polar Equations, and Parametric Equations
Graphs of Polar Equations An equation in the variables x and y is a rectangular (or Cartesian) equation. An equation in which r and u are the vari- ables instead of x and y is a polar equation.
r = 3 sin u, r = 2 + cos u, r = u Polar equations
Although the rectangular forms of lines and circles are the ones most often encountered, they can also be defined in terms of polar coordinates. The polar equation of the line ax + by = c can be derived as follows.

For the circle x2 + y2 = a2, the polar equation can be found in a similar manner.
Circle: x2 + y2 = a2 Rectangular equation of a circle r2 = a2 x2 + y2 = r2
r =ta Polar equation of a circle; r can be negative in polar coordinates.
We use these forms in the next example.

To graph polar equations, evaluate r for various values of u until a pattern appears, and then join the points with a smooth curve. The next four examples illustrate curves that are not usually discussed when rectangular coordinates are covered. (Using graphing calculators makes the task of graphing them quite a bit easier than using traditional point-plotting methods.)

To graph this equation, find some ordered pairs as in the table. Once the pattern of values of r becomes clear, it is not necessary to find more ordered pairs. The table includes approximate values for cos u and r.

The equation r = 3 cos 2u in Example 5 has a graph that belongs to a family of curves called roses.
r = a sin nU and r = a cos nU Equations of roses
The graph has n leaves if n is odd, and 2n leaves if n is even.
The absolute value of a determines the length of the leaves.
EXAMPLE 5 Graphing a Polar Equation (Rose)
Graph r = 3 cos 2u.
SOLUTION Because the argument is 2u, the graph requires a greater number of points than when the argument is just u. We complete the table using selected angle measures through 360° in order to see the pattern of the graph. Approxi- mate values in the table have been rounded to the nearest tenth.

Plotting these points in order gives the graph of a four-leaved rose. Note in Fig- ure 26(a) how the graph is developed with a continuous curve, beginning with the upper half of the right horizontal leaf and ending with the lower half of that leaf. As the graph is traced, the curve goes through the pole four times. This can be seen as a calculator graphs the curve. See Figure 26(b).

Graph r2 = cos 2u. ALGEBRAIC SOLUTION
Complete a table of ordered pairs, and sketch the graph, as in Figure 27. The point 1-1, 0°2, with r negative, may be plotted as 11, 180°2. Also, 1-0.7, 30°2 may be plotted as 10.7, 210°2, and so on.
Values of u for 45° 6 u 6 135° are not included in the table because the corresponding values of cos 2u are negative (quadrants II and III) and so do not have real square roots. Values of u greater than 180° give 2u greater than 360° and would repeat the points already found. This curve is called a lemniscate.
GRAPHING CALCULATOR SOLUTION
To graph r2 = cos 2u with a graphing calculator, first solve for r by considering both square roots. Enter the two polar equations as

8.6 Parametric Equations, Graphs, and Applications
Basic Concepts We have graphed sets of ordered pairs that correspond to a function of the form y = ƒ1x2 or r = g1u2. Another way to determine a set of ordered pairs involves the equations x = ƒ1t2 and y = g1t2, where t is a real number in an interval I. Each value of t leads to a corresponding x-value and a corresponding y-value, and thus to an ordered pair 1x, y2.

Parametric Equations of a Plane Curve
A plane curve is a set of points 1x, y2 such that x = ƒ1t2, y = g1t2, and ƒ and g are both defined on an interval I. The equations x = ƒ1t2 and y = g1t2 are parametric equations with parameter t.
Graphing calculators are capable of graphing plane curves defined by parametric equations. The calculator must be set to parametric mode. ■

y = 2 t + 3 Choose the simpler equation. 2 t = y - 3 Subtract 3 and rewrite.
t = y - 3

Now substitute this result into the first equation to eliminate the parameter t.

x = a y - 3 2 b 2 Substitute for t.
x = 1y - 322
4 Aab B2 = a2b2
4x = 1y - 322 Multiply by 4. This is the equation of a horizontal parabola opening to the right, which agrees with the graph given in Figure 32. Because t is in 3-3, 34, x is in 30, 94 and y is in 3-3, 94. The rectangular equation must be given with restricted domain as
4x = 1y - 322, for x in 30, 94. ■✔ Now Try Exercise 9(b).
EXAMPLE 3 Graphing a Plane Curve Defined Parametrically
Graph the plane curve defined by x = 2 sin t, y = 3 cos t, for t in 30, 2p4. SOLUTION To convert to a rectangular equation, it is not productive here to solve either equation for t. Instead, we use the fact that sin2 t + cos2 t = 1 to apply another approach.

Give two parametric representations for the equation of the parabola.
y = 1x - 222 + 1 SOLUTION The simplest choice is to let
x = t, y = 1t - 222 + 1, for t in 1-∞, ∞2. Another choice, which leads to a simpler equation for y, is
x = t + 2, y = t2 + 1, for t in 1-∞, ∞2. ■✔ Now Try Exercise 33.
NOTE Verify that another choice in Example 4 is
x = 2 + tan t, y = sec2 t, for t in A - p2 , p2 B . Other choices are possible.

The Cycloid The cycloid is a special case of the trochoid—a curve traced out by a point at a given distance from the center of a circle as the circle rolls along a straight line. If the given point is on the circumference of the circle, then the path traced as the circle rolls along a straight line is a cycloid, which is defined parametrically as follows.
x = at − a sin t, y = a − a cos t, for t in 1−H, H 2 Other curves related to trochoids are hypotrochoids and epitrochoids,
which are traced out by a point that is a given distance from the center of a circle that rolls not on a straight line, but on the inside or outside, respectively, of another circle. The classic Spirograph toy can be used to draw these curves.

4018.6 Parametric Equations, Graphs, and Applications
The cycloid has an interesting physical property. If a flexible cord or wire goes through points P and Q as in Figure 37, and a bead is allowed to slide due to the force of gravity without friction along this path from P to Q, the path that requires the shortest time takes the shape of the graph of an inverted cycloid.

Applications of Parametric Equations Parametric equations are used to simulate motion. If an object is thrown with a velocity of v feet per second at an angle u with the horizontal, then its flight can be modeled by
x = 1v cos U 2 t and y = 1v sin U 2 t − 16 t2 + h, where t is in seconds and h is the object’s initial height in feet above the ground. Here, x gives the horizontal position information and y gives the vertical posi- tion information. The term -16t2 occurs because gravity is pulling downward. See Figure 38. These equations ignore air resistance.

EXAMPLE 6 Simulating Motion with Parametric Equations
Three golf balls are hit simultaneously into the air at 132 ft per sec (90 mph) at angles of 30°, 50°, and 70° with the horizontal.
(a) Assuming the ground is level, determine graphically which ball travels the greatest distance. Estimate this distance.
(b) Which ball reaches the greatest height? Estimate this height.
SOLUTION
(a) Use the following parametric equations to model the flight of the golf balls.
x = 1v cos u2t and y = 1v sin u2t - 16t2 + h Write three sets of parametric equations.
x1 = 1132 cos 30°2t, y1 = 1132 sin 30°2t - 16t2 x2 = 1132 cos 50°2t, y2 = 1132 sin 50°2t - 16t2 x3 = 1132 cos 70°2t, y3 = 1132 sin 70°2t - 16t2
The graphs of the three sets of parametric equations are shown in Figure 39(a), where 0 … t … 3. From the graph in Figure 39(b), where 0 … t … 9, we see that the ball hit at 50° travels the greatest distance. Using the tracing feature of the TI-84 Plus calculator, we find that this distance is about 540 ft.
(b) Again, use the tracing feature to find that the ball hit at 70° reaches the great- est height, about 240 ft.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 43.
Substitute h = 0, v = 132 ft per sec, and u = 30°, 50°, and 70°.

402 CHAPTER 8 Complex Numbers, Polar Equations, and Parametric Equations
A TI-84 Plus calculator allows us to view the graphing of more than one equation either sequentially or simultaneously. By choosing the latter, the three golf balls in Figure 39 can be viewed in flight at the same time. ■
EXAMPLE 7 Examining Parametric Equations of Flight
Jack launches a small rocket from a table that is 3.36 ft above the ground. Its initial velocity is 64 ft per sec, and it is launched at an angle of 30° with respect to the ground. Find the rectangular equation that models its path. What type of path does the rocket follow?
SOLUTION The path of the rocket is defined by the parametric equations
x = 164 cos 30°2t and y = 164 sin 30°2t - 16t2 + 3.36 or, equivalently, x = 3223 t and y = -16t2 + 32t + 3.36.
From x = 3223 t, we solve for t to obtain t = x
3223 . Divide by 3223. Substituting for t in the other parametric equation yields the following.
y = -16t2 + 32t + 3.36
y = -16 ¢ x 3223 ≤2 + 32 ¢ x3223 ≤ + 3.36 Let t = x3223 .
y = - 1 192
x2 + 23 3
x + 3.36 Simplify.
This equation defines a parabola. The rocket follows a parabolic path.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 47(a).
ALGEBRAIC SOLUTION
The equation y = -16t2 + 32t + 3.36 tells the vertical position of the rocket at time t. We need to determine the positive value of t for which y = 0 because this value corresponds to the rocket at ground level. This yields
0 = -16t2 + 32t + 3.36.
Using the quadratic formula, the solutions are t = -0.1 or t = 2.1. Because t represents time, t = -0.1 is an unacceptable answer. Therefore, the flight time is 2.1 sec.
The rocket was in the air for 2.1 sec, so we can use t = 2.1 and the parametric equation that models the horizontal position, x = 3223 t, to obtain
x = 3223 12.12 ≈ 116.4 ft.
EXAMPLE 8 Analyzing the Path of a Projectile
Determine the total flight time and the horizontal distance traveled by the rocket in Example 7.

Figure 40 shows that when t = 2.1, the hor- izontal distance x covered is approximately 116.4 ft, which agrees with the algebraic solution.

Basic Terminology of Equations An equation is a statement that two expressions are equal.
x + 2 = 9, 11x = 5x + 6x, x2 - 2x - 1 = 0 Equations
To solve an equation means to find all numbers that make the equation a true statement. These numbers are the solutions, or roots, of the equation. A number that is a solution of an equation is said to satisfy the equation, and the solutions of an equation make up its solution set. Equations with the same solution set are equivalent equations. For example,
x = 4, x + 1 = 5, and 6x + 3 = 27 are equivalent equations
because they have the same solution set, 546. However, the equations x2 = 9 and x = 3 are not equivalent
because the first has solution set 5-3, 36 while the solution set of the second is 536. One way to solve an equation is to rewrite it as a series of simpler equiva-
lent equations using the addition and multiplication properties of equality. Let a, b, and c represent real numbers.
If a = b, then a + c = b + c.
If a = b and c 3 0, then ac = bc.
These properties can be extended: The same number may be subtracted from each side of an equation, and each side may be divided by the same nonzero number, without changing the solution set.
Linear Equations We use the properties of equality to solve linear equations.
Linear Equation in One Variable
A linear equation in one variable is an equation that can be written in the form
ax + b = 0,
where a and b are real numbers and a ≠ 0.
A linear equation is a first-degree equation because the greatest degree of the variable is 1.

Quadratic Equation in One Variable
An equation that can be written in the form

where a, b, and c are real numbers with a ≠ 0, is a quadratic equation. The given form is called standard form.

Inequalities An inequality says that one expression is greater than, greater than or equal to, less than, or less than or equal to another. As with equa- tions, a value of the variable for which the inequality is true is a solution of the inequality, and the set of all solutions is the solution set of the inequality. Two inequalities with the same solution set are equivalent.

Linear Inequality in One Variable
A linear inequality in one variable is an inequality that can be written in the form
ax + b + 0,* where a and b are real numbers and a ≠ 0. *The symbol 7 can be replaced with 6 , … , or Ú .
EXAMPLE 7 Solving a Linear Inequality

Don’t forget to reverse the
inequality symbol here.
Inequalities are solved with the properties of inequality, which are similar to the properties of equality. Let a, b, and c represent real numbers.
1. If a * b, then a + c * b + c. 2. If a * b and if c + 0, then ac * bc. 3. If a * b and if c * 0, then ac + bc. Replacing 6 with 7 , … , or Ú results in similar properties. (Restrictions on c remain the same.)
Multiplication may be replaced by division in Properties 2 and 3. Always remem- ber to reverse the direction of the inequality symbol when multiplying or dividing by a negative number.

The original inequality -3x + 5 7 -7 is satisfied by any real number less than 4. The solution set can be written using set-builder notation as5x ' x 6 46, Set-builder notation which is read “the set of all x such that x is less than 4.”
The solution set 5x 0 x 6 46 is an example of an interval. Using interval notation, we write it as 1-∞, 42. Interval notation The symbol -∞ does not represent an actual number. Rather, it is used to show that the interval includes all real numbers less than 4. The interval 1-∞, 42 is an example of an open interval because the endpoint, 4, is not part of the interval. An interval that includes both its endpoints is a closed interval. A square bracket indicates that a number is part of an interval, and a parenthesis indicates that a number is not part of an interval.
The solution set 1-∞, 42 is graphed in Figure 1. ■✔ Now Try Exercise 73.
Linear Inequalities and Interval Notation The definition of a linear inequality is similar to the definition of a linear equation.

■ The Rectangular Coordinate System
■ Equations in Two Variables
■ Circles
The Rectangular Coordinate System Each real number corresponds to a point on a number line. This idea is extended to ordered pairs of real numbers by using two perpendicular number lines, one horizontal and one vertical, that intersect at their zero-points. The point of intersection is the origin. The horizontal line is the x-axis, and the vertical line is the y-axis. See Figure 1.
The x-axis and y-axis together make up a rectangular coordinate system, or Cartesian coordinate system (named for one of its coinventors, René Descartes. The other coinventor was Pierre de Fermat). The plane into which the coordinate system is introduced is the coordinate plane, or xy-plane. See Figure 1. The x-axis and y-axis divide the plane into four regions, or quadrants, labeled as shown. The points on the x-axis or the y-axis belong to no quadrant.
Each point P in the xy-plane corresponds to a unique ordered pair 1a, b2 of real numbers. The point P corresponding to the ordered pair 1a, b2 often is written P1a, b2 as in Figure 1 and referred to as
“the point 1a, b2.” The numbers a and b are the coordinates of point P.

Equations in Two Variables Ordered pairs are used to express the solu- tions of equations in two variables. When an ordered pair represents the solution of an equation with the variables x and y, the x-value is written first. For example, we say that 11, 22 is a solution of 2x - y = 0. Substituting 1 for x and 2 for y in the equation gives a true statement.
2x - y = 0 2112 - 2≟ 0 Let x = 1 and y = 2.
0 = 0 ✓ True
To locate on the xy-plane the point corresponding to the ordered pair 13, 42, for example, start at the origin, move 3 units in the positive x-direction, and then move 4 units in the positive y-direction. See Figure 2. Point A corresponds to the ordered pair 13, 42.

EXAMPLE 1 Finding Ordered-Pair Solutions of Equations
For each equation, find at least three ordered pairs that are solutions.
(a) y = 4x - 1 (b) x = 2y - 1 (c) y = x2 - 4 SOLUTION
(a) Choose any real number for x or y, and substitute in the equation to obtain the corresponding value of the other variable. For example, let x = -2 and then let y = 3.
y = 4x - 1 y = 41-22 - 1 Let x = -2. y = -8 - 1 Multiply. y = -9 Subtract.
y = 4x - 1 3 = 4x - 1 Let y = 3. 4 = 4x Add 1. 1 = x Divide by 4.
This gives the ordered pairs 1-2, -92 and 11, 32. Verify that the ordered pair 10, -12 is also a solution.
(b) x = 2y - 1 Given equation 1 = 2y - 1 Let x = 1. 1 = y - 1 Square each side. 2 = y Add 1.
One ordered pair is 11, 22. Verify that the ordered pairs 10, 12 and 12, 52 are also solutions of the equation.
(c) A table provides an organized method for determining ordered pairs. Here, we let x equal -2, -1, 0, 1, and 2 in
y = x2 - 4
and determine the corresponding y-values.

Five ordered pairs are 1-2, 02, 1-1, -32, 10, -42, (1, -32, and 12, 02. ■✔ Now Try Exercises 15(a), 19(a), and 21(a).
The graph of an equation is found by plotting ordered pairs that are solutions of the equation. The intercepts of the graph are good points to plot first. An x-intercept is a point where the graph intersects the x-axis, and a y-intercept is a point where the graph intersects the y-axis. In other words, the x-intercept is represented by an ordered pair with y-coordinate 0, and the y-intercept is represented by an ordered pair with x-coordinate 0.
A general algebraic approach for graphing an equation using intercepts and point-plotting follows.

Step 3 Plot the ordered pairs from Steps 1 and 2.
Step 4 Join the points from Step 3 with a smooth line or curve.

to find the x-intercept. When y = 0, the quantity under the radical symbol is negative, so there is no x-intercept. In fact, y - 1 must be greater than or equal to 0, so y must be greater than or equal to 1.
We plot the ordered pairs 10, 12, 11, 22, and 12, 52 from Example 1(b) and join the points with a smooth curve as in Figure 4. To confirm the direc- tion the curve will take as x increases, we find another solution, 13, 102.

Relations and Functions In algebra, we use ordered pairs to represent related quantities. For example, 13, $10.502 might indicate that we pay $10.50 for 3 gallons of gas. The amount we pay depends on the number of gallons pumped, so the amount (in dollars) is called the dependent variable, and the number of gallons pumped is called the independent variable.
Generalizing, if the value of the second component y depends on the value of the first component x, then y is the dependent variable and x is the indepen- dent variable.
Independent variable Dependent variable1x, y2 A set of ordered pairs such as 513, 10.502, 18, 28.002, 110, 35.0026 is a
relation. A function is a special kind of relation.

Relation and Function
A relation is a set of ordered pairs. A function is a relation in which, for each distinct value of the first component of the ordered pairs, there is exactly one value of the second component.
EXAMPLE 1 Deciding Whether Relations Define Functions
Decide whether each relation defines a function.
F = 511, 22, 1-2, 42, 13, 426 G = 511, 12, 11, 22, 11, 32, 12, 326 H = 51-4, 12, 1-2, 12, 1-2, 026
SOLUTION Relation F is a function because for each different x-value there is exactly one y-value. We can show this correspondence as follows.51, -2, 36 x-values of F
52, 4, 46 y-values of F As the correspondence below shows, relation G is not a function because
one first component corresponds to more than one second component.51, 26 x-values of G 51, 2, 36 y-values of G
In relation H the last two ordered pairs have the same x-value paired with two different y-values (-2 is paired with both 1 and 0), so H is a relation but not a function. In a function, no two ordered pairs can have the same first compo- nent and different second components.
Different y-values
H = 51-4, 12, 1-2, 12, 1-2, 026 Not a function Same x-value ■✔ Now Try Exercises 1 and 3.

Relations and functions can also be expressed as a correspondence or mapping from one set to another, as shown in Figure 1 for function F and relation H from Example 1. The arrow from 1 to 2 indicates that the ordered pair 11, 22 belongs to F— each first component is paired with exactly one second compo- nent. In the mapping for relation H, which is not a function, the first component -2 is paired with two different second compo- nents, 1 and 0.
Because relations and functions are sets of ordered pairs, we can represent them using tables and graphs. A table and graph for function F are shown in Figure 2.
Finally, we can describe a relation or function using a rule that tells how to determine the dependent variable for a specific value of the independent vari- able. The rule may be given in words: for instance, “the dependent variable is twice the independent variable.” Usually the rule is an equation, such as the one below.
Dependent variable y = 2x Independent variable

In a function, there is exactly one value of the dependent variable, the sec- ond component, for each value of the independent variable, the first component.
Domain and Range
For every relation consisting of a set of ordered pairs 1x, y2, there are two important sets of elements.
The set of all values of the independent variable 1x2 is the domain. The set of all values of the dependent variable 1y2 is the range.
SOLUTION
(a) The domain is the set of x-values, 53, 4, 66. The range is the set of y-values, 5-1, 2, 5, 86. This relation is not a function because the same x-value, 4, is paired with two different y-values, 2 and 5.
(b) The domain is 54, 6, 7, -36 and the range is 5100, 200, 3006. This map- ping defines a function. Each x-value corresponds to exactly one y-value.
EXAMPLE 2 Finding Domains and Ranges of Relations

(c) This relation, represented by a table, is a set of ordered pairs. The domain is the set of x-values 5-5, 0, 56, and the range is the set of y-values 526. The table defines a function because each different x-value corresponds to exactly one y-value (even though it is the same y-value).

(b) The x-values of the points on the graph include all numbers between -4 and 4, inclusive. The y-values include all numbers between -6 and 6, inclusive.
The domain is 3-4, 44. The range is 3-6, 64. Use interval notation. (c) The arrowheads indicate that the line extends indefinitely left and right, as
well as up and down. Therefore, both the domain and the range include all real numbers, which is written 1-∞, ∞2. Interval notation for the
set of all real numbers
(d) The arrowheads indicate that the graph extends indefinitely left and right, as well as upward. The domain is 1-∞, ∞2. Because there is a least y-value, -3, the range includes all numbers greater than or equal to -3, written 3-3, ∞2.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 19.
Vertical Line Test
If every vertical line intersects the graph of a relation in no more than one point, then the relation is a function.
Determining Whether Relations Are Functions Because each value of x leads to only one value of y in a function, any vertical line must intersect the graph in at most one point. This is the vertical line test for a function.

The graph in Figure 3(a) represents a function because each vertical line intersects the graph in no more than one point. The graph in Figure 3(b) is not the graph of a function because there exists a vertical line that intersects the graph in more than one point.

The graphs of the relations in parts (a), (c), and (d) pass the vertical line test because every vertical line intersects each graph no more than once. Thus, these graphs represent functions.
The graph of the relation in part (b) fails the vertical line test because the same x-value corresponds to two different y-values. Therefore, it is not the graph of a function.

The vertical line test is a simple method for identifying a function defined by a graph. Deciding whether a relation defined by an equation or an inequality is a function, as well as determining the domain and range, is more difficult. The next example gives some hints that may help.

EXAMPLE 5 Identifying Functions, Domains, and Ranges
Decide whether each relation defines y as a function of x, and give the domain and range.
(a) y = x + 4 (b) y = 22x - 1 (c) y2 = x (d) y = 5 x - 1
SOLUTION
(a) In the defining equation (or rule), y = x + 4, y is always found by adding 4 to x. Thus, each value of x corresponds to just one value of y, and the relation defines a function. The variable x can represent any real number, so the domain is5x ' x is a real number6, or 1-∞, ∞2.
Because y is always 4 more than x, y also may be any real number, and so the range is 1-∞, ∞2.
(b) For any choice of x in the domain of y = 22x - 1, there is exactly one cor- responding value for y (the radical is a nonnegative number), so this equation defines a function. The equation involves a square root, so the quantity under the radical sign cannot be negative.
2x - 1 Ú 0 Solve the inequality. 2x Ú 1 Add 1.
x Ú 1 2
Divide by 2.
The domain of the function is C 12 , ∞ B. Because the radical must represent a nonnegative number, as x takes values greater than or equal to 12 , the range is 5y ' y Ú 06, or 30, ∞2. See Figure 4.
(c) The ordered pairs 116, 42 and 116, -42 both satisfy the equation y2 = x. There exists at least one value of x —for example, 16—that corresponds to two values of y, 4 and -4, so this equation does not define a function. Because x is equal to the square of y, the values of x must always be nonnegative. The domain of the relation is 30, ∞2. Any real number can be squared, so the range of the relation is 1-∞, ∞2. See Figure 5.
(d) Given any value of x in the domain of
y = 5 x - 1 ,
we find y by subtracting 1 from x, and then dividing the result into 5. This process produces exactly one value of y for each value in the domain, so this equation defines a function.
The domain of y = 5x - 1 includes all real numbers except those that make the denominator 0. We find these numbers by setting the denominator equal to 0 and solving for x.
x - 1 = 0 x = 1 Add 1.
Thus, the domain includes all real numbers except 1, written as the inter- val 1-∞, 12 ´ 11, ∞2. Values of y can be positive or negative, but never 0, because a fraction cannot equal 0 unless its numerator is 0. Therefore, the range is the interval 1-∞, 02 ´ 10, ∞2, as shown in Figure 6.

Function Notation When a function ƒ is defined with a rule or an equation using x and y for the independent and dependent variables, we say, “y is a function of x” to emphasize that y depends on x. We use the notation
y = ƒ 1x 2 , called function notation, to express this and read ƒ1x2 as “ƒ of x,” or “ƒ at x.” The letter ƒ is the name given to this function.
For example, if y = 3x - 5, we can name the function ƒ and write
ƒ1x2 = 3x - 5. Note that ƒ 1x 2 is just another name for the dependent variable y. For example, if y = ƒ1x2 = 3x - 5 and x = 2, then we find y, or ƒ122, by replacing x with 2.
ƒ122 = 3 # 2 - 5 Let x = 2. ƒ122 = 1 Multiply, and then subtract.
The statement “In the function ƒ, if x = 2, then y = 1” represents the ordered pair 12, 12 and is abbreviated with function notation as follows.
ƒ122 = 1 The symbol ƒ122 is read “ƒ of 2” or “ƒ at 2.”
Function notation can be illustrated as follows.
Name of the function Defining expression $1%1&
y = ƒ1x2 = 3x - 5 Value of the function Name of the independent variable
EXAMPLE 6 Using Function Notation
Let ƒ1x2 = -x2 + 5x - 3 and g1x2 = 2x + 3. Find each of the following. (a) ƒ122 (b) ƒ1q2 (c) g1a + 12 SOLUTION
(a) ƒ1x2 = -x2 + 5x - 3 ƒ122 = -22 + 5 # 2 - 3 Replace x with 2. ƒ122 = -4 + 10 - 3 Apply the exponent and multiply. ƒ122 = 3 Add and subtract.
Thus, ƒ122 = 3, and the ordered pair 12, 32 belongs to ƒ. (b) ƒ1x2 = -x2 + 5x - 3
ƒ1q2 = -q2 + 5q - 3 Replace x with q. (c) g1x2 = 2x + 3
g1a + 12 = 21a + 12 + 3 Replace x with a + 1. g1a + 12 = 2a + 2 + 3 Distributive property g1a + 12 = 2a + 5 Add.

(b) For ƒ = 51-3, 52, 10, 32, 13, 12, 16, -126, we want ƒ132, the y-value of the ordered pair where x = 3. As indicated by the ordered pair 13, 12, when x = 3, y = 1, so ƒ132 = 1.
(c) In the mapping, repeated in Figure 7, the domain element 3 is paired with 5 in the range, so ƒ132 = 5.
(d) To evaluate ƒ132 using the graph, find 3 on the x-axis. See Figure 8. Then move up until the graph of ƒ is reached. Moving horizontally to the y-axis gives 4 for the corresponding y-value. Thus, ƒ132 = 4.

Increasing, Decreasing, and Constant Functions Informally speak- ing, a function increases over an open interval of its domain if its graph rises from left to right on the interval. It decreases over an open interval of its domain if its graph falls from left to right on the interval. It is constant over an open interval of its domain if its graph is horizontal on the interval.
For example, consider Figure 9.
The function increases over the open interval 1-2, 12 because the y-values continue to get larger for x-values in that interval.
The function is constant over the open inter- val 11, 42 because the y-values are always 5 for all x-values there.
The function decreases over the open interval 14, 62 because in that interval the y-values continuously get smaller.
The intervals refer to the x-values where the y-values either increase, decrease, or are con- stant.
The formal definitions of these concepts follow.

SOLUTION We observe the domain and ask, “What is happening to the y-values as the x-values are getting larger?” Moving from left to right on the graph, we see the following:
On the open interval 1-∞, -22, the y-values are decreasing. On the open interval 1-2, 12, the y-values are increasing. On the open interval 11, ∞2, the y-values are constant (and equal to 8).
Therefore, the function is decreasing on 1-∞, -22, increasing on 1-2, 12, and constant on 11, ∞2.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 65.
NOTE To decide whether a function is increasing, decreasing, or con- stant over an interval, ask yourself, “What does y do as x goes from left to right?” Our definition of increasing, decreasing, and constant function behavior applies to open intervals of the domain, not to individual points.
EXAMPLE 8 Determining Open Intervals of a Domain
Figure 11 shows the graph of a function. Determine the largest open intervals of the domain over which the function is increasing, decreasing, or constant.

D Graphing Techniques
Graphing techniques presented in this section show how to graph functions that are defined by altering the equation of a basic function.
■ Stretching and Shrinking
■ Reflecting ■ Symmetry ■ Translations
Stretching and Shrinking We begin by considering how the graphs of y = aƒ1x2 and y = ƒ1ax2 compare to the graph of y = ƒ1x2, where a 7 0.
EXAMPLE 1 Stretching or Shrinking Graphs
Graph each function.
(a) g1x2 = 2 0 x 0 (b) h1x2 = 1 2
0 x 0 (c) k1x2 = 0 2x 0 SOLUTION
(a) Comparing the tables of values for ƒ1x2 = 0 x 0 and g1x2 = 2 0 x 0 in Figure 1 on the next page, we see that for corresponding x-values, the y-values of g are each twice those of ƒ. The graph of ƒ1x2 = 0 x 0 is vertically stretched. The graph of g1x2, shown in blue in Figure 1, is narrower than that of ƒ1x2, shown in red for comparison.
NOTE Recall from algebra that 'a ' is the absolute value of a number a.
∣a ∣ = b a if a is positive or 0 −a if a is negative
Thus, '2 ' = '2 ' and ' -2 ' = '2 ' . We use absolute value functions to illustrate many
of the graphing techniques in this section.

Vertical Stretching or Shrinking of the Graph of a Function
Suppose that a 7 0. If a point 1x, y2 lies on the graph of y = ƒ1x2, then the point 1x, ay2 lies on the graph of y = aƒ 1x 2 . (a) If a 7 1, then the graph of y = aƒ1x2 is a vertical stretching of the
graph of y = ƒ1x2. (b) If 0 6 a 6 1, then the graph of y = aƒ1x2 is a vertical shrinking of the
graph of y = ƒ1x2. Figure 3 shows graphical interpretations of vertical stretching and shrinking.
In both cases, the x-intercepts of the graph remain the same but the y-intercepts are affected.

Therefore, the graph of k1x2 = 0 2x 0 is the same as the graph of g1x2 = 2 0 x 0 in part (a). This is a horizontal shrink of the graph of ƒ1x2 = 0 x 0 . See Figure 1.

the graph of y = ƒ1x2. (b) If a 7 1, then the graph of y = ƒ1ax2 is a horizontal shrinking of the
graph of y = ƒ1x2.
Graphs of functions can also be stretched and shrunk horizontally.

Reflecting Forming the mirror image of a graph across a line is called reflecting the graph across the line.

Graph each function.
(a) g1x2 = -2x (b) h1x2 = 2-x SOLUTION
(a) The tables of values for g1x2 = -2x and ƒ1x2 = 2x are shown with their graphs in Figure 5. As the tables suggest, every y-value of the graph of g1x2 = -2x is the negative of the corresponding y-value of ƒ1x2 = 2x. This has the effect of reflecting the graph across the x-axis.

Reflecting across an Axis
The graph of y = −ƒ 1x 2 is the same as the graph of y = ƒ1x2 reflected across the x-axis. (If a point 1x, y2 lies on the graph of y = ƒ1x2, then 1x, -y2 lies on this reflection.) The graph of y = ƒ 1−x 2 is the same as the graph of y = ƒ1x2 reflected across the y-axis. (If a point 1x, y2 lies on the graph of y = ƒ1x2, then 1-x, y2 lies on this reflection.)
The graphs in Example 2 suggest the following generalizations.
Symmetry The graph of ƒ shown in Figure 7(a) is cut in half by the y-axis, with each half the mirror image of the other half. Such a graph is symmetric with respect to the y-axis. In general, for a graph to be symmetric with respect to the y-axis, the point 1−x, y 2 must be on the graph whenever the point 1x, y 2 is on the graph.

Similarly, if the graph in Figure 7(b) were folded in half along the x-axis, the portion at the top would exactly match the portion at the bottom. Such a graph is symmetric with respect to the x-axis. In general, for a graph to be symmetric with respect to the x-axis, the point 1x, −y 2 must be on the graph whenever the point 1x, y 2 is on the graph.

Symmetry with Respect to an Axis
The graph of an equation is symmetric with respect to the y-axis if the replacement of x with -x results in an equivalent equation. The graph of an equation is symmetric with respect to the x-axis if the replacement of y with -y results in an equivalent equation.
EXAMPLE 3 Testing for Symmetry with Respect to an Axis
Test for symmetry with respect to the x-axis and the y-axis.
(a) y = x2 + 4 (b) x = y2 - 3 (c) x2 + y2 = 16 (d) 2x + y = 4
SOLUTION
(a) In y = x2 + 4, replace x with -x.
y = x2 + 4 y = 1-x22 + 4 The result is equivalent to the original equation. y = x2 + 4
Use parentheses around -x.
Thus the graph, shown in Figure 8, is symmetric with respect to the y-axis. The y-axis cuts the graph in half, with the halves being mirror images.
Now replace y with -y to test for symmetry with respect to the x-axis.
y = x2 + 4 -y = x2 + 4 The result is not equivalent to the original equation.
y = -x2 - 4 Multiply
by -1.
The graph is not symmetric with respect to the x-axis. See Figure 8.
(b) In x = y2 - 3, replace y with -y.
x = 1-y22 - 3 = y2 - 3 Same as the original equation The graph is symmetric with respect to the x-axis, as shown in Figure 9. It
is not symmetric with respect to the y-axis.
(c) Substitute -x for x and then -y for y in x2 + y2 = 16.1-x22 + y2 = 16 and x2 + 1-y22 = 16 Both simplify to the original equation,
x2 + y2 = 16.

Another kind of symmetry occurs when a graph can be rotated 180° about the origin, with the result coinciding exactly with the original graph. Symmetry of this type is symmetry with respect to the origin. In general, for a graph to be symmetric with respect to the origin, the point 1−x, −y 2 is on the graph whenever the point 1x, y 2 is on the graph.

-2x + y = 4
2x + y = 4 2x + 1-y2 = 4 Not equivalent

The graph is not symmetric with respect to either axis. See Figure 11.
■✔ Now Try Exercise 35.
(d) In 2x + y = 4, replace x with -x and then replace y with -y.
The graph, a circle of radius 4 centered at the origin, is symmetric with respect to both axes. See Figure 10.
EXAMPLE 4 Testing for Symmetry with Respect to the Origin
Determine whether the graph of each equation is symmetric with respect to the origin.
(a) x2 + y2 = 16 (b) y = x3
SOLUTION
(a) Replace x with -x and y with -y.
x2 + y2 = 161-x22 + 1-y22 = 16 Equivalent x2 + y2 = 16
Use parentheses around -x and -y.
The graph, which is the circle shown in Figure 10 in Example 3(c), is sym- metric with respect to the origin.

A graph symmetric with respect to both the x- and y-axes is automatically symmetric with respect to the origin. (See Figure 10.)
A graph symmetric with respect to the origin need not be symmetric with respect to either axis. (See Figure 13.)
Of the three types of symmetry—with respect to the x-axis, with respect to the y-axis, and with respect to the origin—a graph possessing any two types must also exhibit the third type of symmetry.
A graph symmetric with respect to the x-axis does not represent a function. (See Figures 9 and 10.)
Translations The next examples show the results of horizontal and verti- cal shifts, or translations, of the graph of ƒ1x2 = 0 x 0 .
EXAMPLE 5 Translating a Graph Vertically
Graph g1x2 = 0 x 0 - 4. SOLUTION Comparing the table shown with Figure 14, we see that for corre- sponding x-values, the y-values of g are each 4 less than those for ƒ. The graph of g1x2 = 0 x 0 - 4 is the same as that of ƒ1x2 = 0 x 0 , but translated 4 units down. The lowest point is at 10, -42. The graph is symmetric with respect to the y-axis and is therefore the graph of an even function.

The graph of g will be the same as the graph of ƒ, but translated c units up if c is positive or 0 c 0 units down if c is negative.

The graph of g will be the same as the graph of ƒ, but translated c units to the right if c is positive or 0 c 0 units to the left if c is negative.

SOLUTION
(a) To graph ƒ1x2 = - 0 x + 3 0 + 1, the lowest point on the graph of y = 0 x 0 is translated 3 units to the left and 1 unit up. The graph opens down because of the negative sign in front of the absolute value expression, making the lowest point now the highest point on the graph, as shown in Figure 18. The graph is symmetric with respect to the line x = -3.

The graph of h is the graph of y = 0 x 0 translated 2 units to the right, and vertically stretched by a factor of 2. Horizontal shrinking gives the same appearance as vertical stretching for this function. See Figure 19.
(c) The graph of g1x2 = - 12 x2 + 4 has the same shape as that of y = x2, but it is wider (that is, shrunken vertically), reflected across the x-axis because the coefficient - 12 is negative, and then translated 4 units up. See Figure 20.

Answers to Selected Exercises
To The Student In this section we provide the answers that we think most students will obtain when they work the exercises using the methods explained in the text. If your answer does not look exactly like the one given here, it is not necessarily wrong. In many cases there are equivalent forms of the answer. For example, if the answer section shows 34 and your answer is 0.75, you have obtained the correct answer but written it in a different (yet equivalent) form. Unless the directions specify otherwise, 0.75 is just as valid an answer as 34 . (In answers with radicals, we give rationalized denominators when appropriate.) In general, if your answer does not agree with the one given in the text, see whether it can be transformed into the other form. If it can, then it is equivalent to the cor- rect answer. If you still have doubts, talk with your instructor.

To use the law of sines, we must know an angle measure, the length of the side opposite it, and at least one other angle measure or side length. 31. If two angles and a side are given, the third angle can be determined using the angle sum formula. Then the ASA congruence axiom can be applied. This triangle is uniquely determined because there is only one possible triangle that meets these initial conditions. 33. 118 m 35. 17.8 km 37. first location: 5.1 mi; second location: 7.2 mi 39. 0.49 mi 41. 111° 43.

85. The reference angle for 115° is 65°. Because 115° is in quadrant II, its sine is positive. The function sin u decreases on the interval 190°, 180°2 from 1 to 0. Therefore, sin 115° is closest to 0.9.
2.3 Exercises 51. sin 10° + sin 10° ≟ sin 20° Using a calculator, we obtain
sin 10° + sin 10° ≈ 0.34729636
and sin 20° ≈ 0.34202014.
Thus, the statement is false.

79. Intuitively, increasing u would make it easier to negotiate the curve at a higher speed, much as is done at a race track. Mathematically, a larger value of u (acute) will lead to a larger value for tan u. If tan u increases, then the ratio determining R will decrease. Thus, the radius can be smaller and the curve sharper if u is increased.

Chapter 2 Acute Angles and Right Triangles 2.1 Exercises 69. One point on the line y = 23x is the origin, 10, 02 .
Let 1x, y2 be any other point on this line. Then, by the definition of slope, m = y - 0x - 0 =
y x = 23 , but also, by
the definition of tangent, tan u = yx . Thus, tan u = 23 . Because tan 60° = 23, the line y = 23 x makes a 60° angle with the positive x-axis.
73. Apply the relationships among the lengths of the sides of a 30°9 60° right triangle first to the triangle on the left to find the values of x and y, and then to the triangle on the right to find the values of z and w. In a 30°960° right triangle, the side opposite the 30° angle is 12 the
length of the hypotenuse. The longer leg is 23 times the shorter leg.

Chapter 4 Graphs of the Circular Functions 4.1 Exercises 41. The point 10, 22 lies on the graph, and 2 is the maxi-
mum value of the function. It can be interpreted as the point 10, 12 on the graph of y = cos x that has been stretched vertically by a factor of 2, so we can conclude that a = 2.
To find b, note from the graph that the period is p, and use period = 2pb :
p = 2p b
