Old Stuff Again

Its getting late so lets make this quick and lets talk about reference angles.

Steps: 1 find the original quadrant and sketch it.

2 positive or negative.

3 either subtract 360 or 180 until the angle is in between 0 and 90.

Example: Find the reference angle for sin 600

600-360=240 so now you know the original quadrant is 3

Sin is positive in Q3

240-180=60

Now we can know that the reference angle is sin60
