Prerequisite dot points

Use the unit circle or graphs of trigonometric functions to establish and apply the relationships sin⁡A = sin⁡(180° - A), cos⁡A = - cos⁡(180° - A), and tan⁡A = - tan⁡(180° - A) for obtuse angles when 0° ≤ A ≤ 90°

Stage 5 · Trigonometry D (Path) Draft mapping

No checked resources on this prerequisite dot point yet.

Define the sine, cosine and tangent ratios for angles in right-angled triangles and use trigonometric notation sin⁡θ,cos⁡θ,tan⁡θ

Stage 5 · Trigonometry A Draft mapping

Verify and use the relationships between the sine and cosine ratios of complementary angles in right-angled triangles: sin⁡A = cos⁡(90° - A) and cos⁡A = sin⁡(90° - A)
