Trig question...cos ( 90 + Q) is it equal to + sin Q since it's in quadrant 2 ? Or is it -sin Q since cos is negative in quadrant 2 ?...:s

OpenStudy (amistre64):

well, it is negative if Q is between 0 and 90

OpenStudy (amistre64):

err, 0 and 180 .... doesnt really leave the left side does it till 270

OpenStudy (amistre64):

but yeah, think of it like tuning the graph so that y is in place of the x axis

OpenStudy (amistre64):

cos(t-90) = sin(t)

OpenStudy (pottersheep):

It's cos ( 90 + Q) not 90 - Q tho :P

OpenStudy (pottersheep):

or t - 90 as you said
