Trigonometric Equations

Reciprocal and Pythagorean Identities

DO NOW• 1) Take out Homework from Ms. Chung

• 2) Take out Paper and Pencils

• 3) Do Warm Up

Warm Up• A) Find the reciprocal of 2, -4, pi, x and (-1/2)?

• B) What is the formula used for Pythagorean Theorem?

Introduction• Goals: Trigonometric Equations and Intro to Limits

• Expectations: Etiquette for Talking, Being on Time, Asking for Help, Note Taking

• Office Hours: This Week Only: Thursday 3:30-4:30 Next Week: Wednesday 3:30-4:30

• HW Policy: HW will be assigned at least once a week

AGENDA

•1) Reciprocal and Pythagorean Identities

•2) Math Fair

•3) HW

•WARNING: Excuse my notation!!

What is an Identity?

• Definition of Identity: An equation that is true for all values of the variables.

• Examples:

• 2x = 2x

• (a-b)(a+b) = a^2 +2ab + b^2

• 5(x+13) = 5x + 65

• Non-examples: • 3x + 2 = x

• 5(y-2) = 2y

Your Turn

• Create the following and fill in the first two columns. Tip: You know these from when you first studied Trig functions.

Reciprocal Identities

Tangent and Cotangent Ratio Identities

Pythagorean Identities

Negative-Angle Identities

1) 1)

2) 2)

3)

Prove each Trigonometric Identity.

•A) sec x = (csc x)*(tan x)

•B) (sin x)*(cot x) = cos x

•Write an equivalent expression for (sec x)*(sin x)

Reciprocal Identities

Tangent and Cotangent Ratio Identities

Pythagorean Identities

Negative-Angle Identities

1) csc x = 1/sin x 1) tan x = (sin x)/(cos x)

2) sec x = 1/cos x 2) cot x = (cos x)/(sin x)

3) cot x = 1/tan x

Check for Understanding

Think-Write-Pair-Share

• Define what is an identity?

• What is an example?

• What is a non-example?

• Why is this important?

Do You See Any Patterns?

What are the Negative-Angle Identities?

Reciprocal Identities

Tangent and Cotangent Ratio Identities

Pythagorean Identities

Negative-Angle Identities

1) csc x = 1/sin x 1) tan x = (sin x)/(cos x)

1) sin (-x) = - sin x

2) sec x = 1/cos x 2) cot x = (cos x)/(sin x)

2) cos (-x) = cos x

3) cot x = 1/tan x 3) tan (-x) = - tan x

Your Turn

•Prove each trigonometric identity.

•A) csc (-x) = - csc (x)

•B) 1 – sec (-x) = 1 – sec (x)

Almost There!!!!

Reciprocal Identities

Tangent and Cotangent Ratio Identities

Pythagorean Identities

Negative-Angle Identities

1) csc x = 1/sin x 1) tan x = (sin x)/(cos x)

1) (sin x)^2 + (cos x)^2 = 1

1) sin (-x) = - sin x

2) sec x = 1/cos x 2) cot x = (cos x)/(sin x)

2) 2) cos (-x) = cos x

3) cot x = 1/tan x 3) 3) tan (-x) = - tan x

Proof of the Pythagorean TheoremSohCahToa

Mini Proof

Sin = y/1 ….. Which implies what?Cos = x/1 ….. Which implies what?

Remember that x^2 + y^2 = 1?

So then, using substitution, we know that…

(Sin )^2 + (Cos )^2 = 1

Your Turn!!

Rewrite each expression in terms of cos , and simplify.

• A)

• B) sec – (tan )*(sin )

Rewrite each expression in terms of sin , and simplify.

• A)

• B)

Proof Time!!

• The second Pythagorean Identity is:

1 + (tan )^2 = (sec )^2

• Prove it using the identities you already know.

Hint: Start with the first Pythagorean Identity.

Third Pythagorean Identity

• The second Pythagorean Identity is:

(cot )^2 + 1 = (csc )^2

• Prove it using the identities you already know.

Hint: Start with the first Pythagorean Identity.

Last Problem!!!

Which is equivalent to 1 – (sec )^2?

•A) (tan )^2

•B) -(tan )^2

•C) (cot )^2

•D) -(cot )^2

Reciprocal Identities

Tangent and Cotangent Ratio Identities

Pythagorean Identities

Negative-Angle Identities

1) csc x = 1/sin x 1) tan x = (sin x)/(cos x)

1) (sin x)^2 + (cos x)^2 = 1

1) sin (-x) = - sin x

* csc (-x) = - csc x

2) sec x = 1/cos x 2) cot x = (cos x)/(sin x)

2) 1 + (tan )^2 = (sec )^2

2) cos (-x) = cos x

*sec (-x) = sec x

3) cot x = 1/tan x 3) (cot )^2 + 1 = (csc )^2

3) tan (-x) = - tan x

*cot (-x) = - cot (x)

HW• Review pg. 459, specifically the table of identities.

• Read pg. 463, Guidelines for Establishing Identities.

• Do brain exercises: 9, 11, 13, 19, 23, 27, 49, 53 and 69 on page 464-465

Note: For these 10 exercises, show all steps and justify each step.

Due: This Friday, April 25.
