A point P having coordinates (-0.6561,-0.7547), lies on the terminal arm of an angle theta in standard position on a unit circle. Sketch this situation and determine the value of theta in degrees. \n" ); document.write( "--------------- \n" ); document.write( "The point is in the 3rd quadrant. \n" ); document.write( "The reference angle is tan^-1[-0.7547/-0.6561] = 48.997 degrees \n" ); document.write( "------------- \n" ); document.write( "Therefore theta = 180 + 48.997 = 228.997 degrees \n" ); document.write( "================ \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( " |
