okay
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so first of all, you want to fine the reference angle.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
see 11 is larger than 6 right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so you do this : 11/6 - 6/6 = -5/6 pi (sorry I didn't write the negative and pi in the equation)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5/6 pi is equal to 150

OpenStudy (anonymous):
its -11/6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but since it's negative,
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it's gonna be 210
OpenStudy (anonymous):
cuz it's gonna go clockwise do you get this part?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how did you get -5/6 and why did you subtract one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
and wehre is the 210 and 150 come from
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay
OpenStudy (anonymous):
simpler way
hero (hero):
@musiklover317 I have another question for you
OpenStudy (anonymous):
look. you know that you want to fine the reference angle to solve for sin csc cot etc.

@Hero dude. I don't have time to deal with you. Don't bother me. I have my own hw to do but it's delay because of you.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
just deal with it by yourself.
hero (hero):
Answer that last question and then I'll be finished with you.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ha. look. I don't want to waste my time, so why don't you argue with another person.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@jhalt sorry about that. so 180 degrees = pi

Suppose the angle is 216 degrees and the area of a sector is 15pi. What's the radius of the circle?
hero (hero):
There bro. I even posted it here for you
OpenStudy (anonymous):
huh I am confused. Where did you get the 216 egrees
OpenStudy (anonymous):
in order to find the the reference angle, you have to subtract the angle given (larger than 180) to 180
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so 6pi/6 is pi

OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay
hero (hero):
That was @musiklover317 math question
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so you have to subtract 11pi/6 by 6pi/6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then you'll get -5pi/6

OpenStudy (anonymous):
5pi/6 is 150 right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thast what I am confused about
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh do you have the unit circle with you?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ya
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then you know that 5pi/6 is 150

OpenStudy (anonymous):
5pi/6 is in radian form and 150 is in degree form
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes I understand. I see 150 on the circlue. BUt I apologize but why did you subtract 180?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
because the angle was larger than 180 (or pi)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes but why thought?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh your trying to make it less?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
why not just say -30 degrees instead?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
because 11pi/6 - pi/6 is not gonna work, you see?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but that's the next step though
OpenStudy (anonymous):
150's reference angle is 30 which is pi/6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and it's (rad(3)/2,1/2) [(cos,sin)]

and you know how to find the rest of them.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hey I really have to go now good luck!
hero (hero):
Talk about taking some obscure long way of solving
OpenStudy (anonymous):
can you ehlp me hero?
hero (hero):
I'll post the solution for the first one. You're on your own with the rest

hero (hero):
\[\theta = -\frac{11 \pi}{6}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
your wrong
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sin is y/r and cos is x/r
hero (hero):
Okay, so you have all the formulas in front of you so you don't need that
hero (hero):
Anyway, you need to find \(\sec \theta\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
hero (hero):
\[\sec(\theta) = \frac{r}{x}\]
hero (hero):
Now insert theta:
\[\sec\left(-\frac{11 \pi}{6}\right) = \frac{r}{x}\]
hero (hero):
substitute \(\pi = 180\)
hero (hero):
\[\sec\left(-\frac{11(180)}{6}\right) = \frac{r}{x}\]
\[\sec\left(-11(30)\right) = \frac{r}{x}\]
\[\sec\left(-330 \right) = \frac{r}{x}\]

hero (hero):
\[\sec\left(-330 \right) = \frac{r}{x}\]
\[\sec(\theta)= \frac{1}{\cos(\theta)}\]
hero (hero):
So:
\[\sec(-330)= \frac{1}{\cos(-330)} \]
hero (hero):
But -330 degrees is just 30 degrees on the circle, so:
\[\sec(-330)= \frac{1}{\cos(30)}\]
hero (hero):
Solve the rest
hero (hero):
You should be familiar with the unit circle
