General Angles and Radian Measure
History Lesson of the Day
Hippocrates of Chois (470-410 BC) and Erathosthenes of Cyrene (276-194 BC) began using triangle ratios that were used by Egyptian and Babylonian engineers 4000 years earlier.
Term “trigonometry” emerged in the 16th century from Greek roots.
“Tri” = three
“gonon” = side
“metros” = measure
Why Study Trig?
• Trig functions arose from the consideration of ratios within right triangles.– Ultimate tool for engineers in the ancient world.
• As knowledge progressed from a flat earth to a world of circles and spheres, trig became the secret to understanding circular phenomena.
• Circular motion led to harmonic motion and waves.– Electrical current– Modern telecommunications– Store sound wave digitally on a CD
What you’ll learn about
• The Problem of Angular Measure• Degrees and Radians• Arc Length• Area of a Sector
… and whyAngles are the domain elements of the
trigonometric functions.
Why 360º?The idea of dividing a circle into 360 equal pieces dates The idea of dividing a circle into 360 equal pieces dates back to the sexagesimal (60-based) counting system of back to the sexagesimal (60-based) counting system of the ancient Sumerians. Early astronomical calculations the ancient Sumerians. Early astronomical calculations linked the sexagesimal system to circles.linked the sexagesimal system to circles.
The problem is that degree The problem is that degree units have no mathematical units have no mathematical relationship whatsoever to relationship whatsoever to linear units. Therefore we linear units. Therefore we needed another way to needed another way to measure a circle.measure a circle.
