Suppose that the terminal point determined by t is the point
Suppose that the terminal point determined by t is the point (5/13, 12/13) on the unit circle. Find the terminal point determined by each of the following.
(a) t
(x, y) =
(b) t
(x, y) =
(c) + t
(x, y) =
(d) 2 + t
(x, y) =
Solution
a) t = ( 5/13 , 12/13)
pi - t
theta = tan^-1(12/13/5/13) = 67.38 deg
So pi -t would be 112 .62 deg
It mens pi -t woudl be inIIbd quadrant:
( -5/13, 12/13)
b) -t ;
(x , -y) = ( 5/13 , -12/13)
c) pi +t = 180 + 67.38 deg
IIIrd quadrant
pi +t would be ( -x, -y) = ( -5/13 , -12/13)
d) 2pi +t = t
So, (x, y) = ( 5/13 , 12/13)
