MATH 536 TRIG QUIZ SOLUTIONS

1)Complete the following table without a calculator: do not rationalize!!

you are allowed to copy and paste the table so you can print it out for effeciency -- just the table!!

a)Q 2, b) 135º

ii) 2o /5

a)Q 1, b) 72º

iii) 17o/3

a)Q 4, b) 1020º

iv) -15o

a)x-axis, b)-2700º

v) -5o/6

4) List the 5 remaining trig functions for angle A. In which quadrant is angle A?
(make a diagram)

a) sin A = < 0, cos A > 0 d Q 4

b) cot A > 0, sin A > 0 d Q 1

c) cos A > 0, tan A < 0 d Q 4

d) csc A = -9/5, cot A > 0 d Q 3

.

5) Prove these identities

a) cot x + = csc x

b) 2 sin A + tan A =

RHS

c) (sin A + cos A)2 + (sin A - cos A)2 = 2

LHS sin 2 A + 2 sinA cosA + cos 2 A + sin 2 A - 2 sinA cosA + cos 2 A =

sin 2 A + cos 2 A + sin 2 A + cos 2 A = 1 + 1 = 2 = RHS

.

6) State the amplitude, period, phase shift, max and min, then graph

a) y = 3 sin (4x + o) - 4

y = 3 sin 4(x + o/4) - 4
amp = 3, period =
o/2, h = - o/4,
max = -1, min = -7

b) y = - 7 cos (3x - 2o) + 2

y = - 7 cos 3(x - 2o/3) + 2
amp = 7, period = 2
o/3, h = -2o/3,
max = 9, min = -5

.

7) Graph one cycle of
