5.3 Day 1 Properties of Trigonometric Functions March 02, 2009 5.3 Properties of the Trigonometric Functions Objectives: • Identify the signs of trig functions for each quadrant • Find the exact values of the Trig Functions of an angle given: one function and the quadrant. Feb 26 ­ 9:15 PM 1 5.3 Day 1 Properties of Trigonometric Functions March 02, 2009 Periodic Functions Because our trigonometric functions continue infinitely, but repeat their values they are called periodic functions. Each revolution yields the same values for sine and cosine and their cofunctions. Feb 26 ­ 10:05 PM 2 5.3 Day 1 Properties of Trigonometric Functions March 02, 2009 Find the exact value of the following trigonometric functions.
