Transcript Coterminal Angles and Radian Measure

Radian Measure and
Coterminal Angles
Take out your
homework from
Friday!!!
Warm-up (1:30 m)

Using your “Degrees and Radians” handout
from Friday, describe how you convert
between degrees and radians.
Converting Between Degrees
and Radians

to radians, multiply to degrees, multiply

Another way of measuring angles
Convenient because major measurements of a
circle (circumference, area, etc.) are involve pi
Radians result in easier numbers to use

Positive angles move
counterclockwise around

Negative angles move
clockwise around the
circle

You may need to add or subtract 2 pi more than
once!!!
Trick: Add or subtract the coefficients of pi
rather than the entire radian measure
