trig confuses me -.-
Trig is the best thing ever.. on the planet c: besides calculus
You are a rare mouse.
-_-
:*
Trig is like a dungeon filled with pipes. Everything connects back and forth to one another. It's amazing how you can get from one identity to another. Crazy looping back and forth paths that you didn't know exist.
that is why they call it "trickonometry"
No rae jay. It refers to shooting yourself bc its so hard.
trigger.
ahhyesh triggernometry i like that too
If you mean the difference inside and outside the circle. Inside the circle r=1 so \(sin \theta = y\) and \(cos \theta = x\)
thats the same from inside tho?
In the table they're talking about points outside the circle that's why you have the r
its outside. you said r = 1 is only for inside.
nvm r is the same
This coordinate that they gave us corresponds to a circle of radius r, not necessarily r=1. We'll have to apply our Pythagorean Theorem to find the value of r,\[\large\rm x^2+y^2=r^2\]Plugging the coordinate into our formula,\[\large\rm 1^2+(\sqrt3)^2=r^2\]
This r value happens to be our `hypotenuse`. We'll need that information for sine and cosine, ya?
oh the radius isnt the same anymore ;'c
why isnt x the radius?
http://prntscr.com/b79mym where would this point be? like on the circle.
|dw:1463968804809:dw|because you're looking at the wrong circle. Our point lies on some larger circle.
