BELLWORK
Assuming the Earth makes one complete revolution around its axis in exactly 24 hours, and assuming the radius of the Earth is 3,960 miles:
a) What central angle, in radians, does the Earth rotate in one second?
b) … In degrees?
c) What distance through space, in feet, would a person standing still on the surface of the Earth actually travel in that time?
d) How long would it take for a person, sitting still on the surface of the Earth, to travel a distance of 4.321 miles through space?
REMEMBER:
𝜔 =𝜃
𝑡
𝑠 = 𝑟𝜃
1 revolution = 2𝜋 rads = 360°

Trigonometry: The Unit Circle and
Trig Functions
The Unit Circle
• A unit circle is a circle of radius 1, centered at the origin.
• If we draw a central angle in standard position on the unit circle, the radian measure of the central angle will be equal to the arc length created by that angle.
The Six Trigonometric Functions
If 𝜃 is the radian measure of the central angle in a unit circle, and 𝑃(𝑥, 𝑦) is a point on the unit circle that corresponds to 𝜃, then we define the trig functions in the following way:
1
𝜃
(1, 0)
(0, 1)
(–1, 0)
(0, –1)
𝑃(𝑥, 𝑦)
