EXAMPLE 1
Find the exact value of the sine and cosine of 300o.
Solution
1. Sketch a diagram showing a
rotation of 300o
2. The side opposite 30o is the xcoordinate, which is , and this
gives us the cosine of the angle.
3. The side opposite 60o is the ycoordinate which is and this
gives us the sine of the angle.
Since the point is in the fourth
quadrant the x-coordinate is
positive and the y-coordinate is
negative. Thus we can say:
EXAMPLE 2
Find the exact value of sine and cosine of -225o
Solution
1. Remember that for a negative
angle the rotation is clockwise.
2. Sketch a diagram showing the
angle and the corresponding
right triangle as on the right.
3. The resulting triangle is 45o 45o - 90o so both sides are
Since the point is in the second
quadrant, the x-coordinate is
negative and the y-coordinate is
positive.

SUMMARY OF TRIG FUNCTIONS,
EQUATIONS AND IDENTITIES
SIMPLIFYING RATIONAL EXPRESSIONS
• To simplify a rational expression (as you did
with fractions) you remove the common
factors from its numerator and denominator.
This is best explained by use of an example
EXAMPLE 1
EXAMPLE 2
MULTIPLYING & DIVIDING
• To multiply rational expressions, multiply
together the numerators and denominators,
factor, and remove common factors from the
numerator and denominator. Division is
identical except that you first have to change
the division to a multiplication.
EXAMPLE 1
EXAMPLE 2
ADDITION & SUBTRACTION
• As you learned with your work on fractions in
earlier grades, to add and subtract rational
expressions requires that they have a
common denominator. Once two expressions
have a common denominator, we simply add
or subtract their numerators. It is easiest if we
find the least common denominator of the
two fractions before we start to add or
subtract. To do this, factor the denominator of
all fractions.

A GOOD STRATEGY TO USE IN
VERIFYING OR PROVING IDENTITIES IS
1. select the expressions on one side of the equal sign to
work with, usually start with the left hand side.
2. write all the expressions on that side in terms of sine
or cosine and/or apply the various trigonometric
identities that you have memorized.
3. simplify using algebraic manipulation, which may
include factoring.
4. if necessary, repeat the process for the other side of
the equal sign.
• Hopefully, if you have done your work correctly, both
sides of the equal sign will give the same expression or
value, regardless of the measure of the angle.
