Determine the ordered pair that represents the coordinates of the point where the terminal side of the angle measuring 245∘ intersects the unit circle, if the terminal side of an angle in standard position measuring 65∘ intersects the unit circle at (x,y)? Answer with an ordered pair in terms of x and y.

Respuesta :

The point
[tex]x = \sin \theta \: and \: y = cos \theta[/tex]
lies on the unit circle.


The reference angle for 245° is 65°.


Since 245° lies in the third quadrant,

cosine is negative and sine is negative

Therefore 245° intersect the unit circle at


[tex]x = - \sin ( 65 \degree ) \: and \: y = - \cos(65 \degree) [/tex]
In terms of x and y, 245° intersects the unit circle at


[tex]( - x,-y)[/tex]

The ordered pair that represents the coordinates of the point where the terminal side of the angle measuring 245 degrees intersects the unit circle is (-x,-y).

Given :

The terminal side of the angle measuring 245∘ intersects the unit circle, if the terminal side of an angle in the standard position measuring 65∘ intersects the unit circle at (x,y).

The following steps can be used in order to determine the ordered pair that represents the coordinates of the point:

Step 1 - The point that lies on the unit circle is:

[tex]\rm x=sin\;\theta[/tex]

[tex]\rm y = cos \; \theta[/tex]

Step 2 - The angle measuring 245 degrees lies in the third quadrant where sine and cosine both are negative.

Step 3 - The 245 degree angle intersects the unit circle at:

[tex]\rm x = -sin\;65^\circ[/tex]

[tex]\rm y =- cos\;65[/tex]

Step 4 - Therefore, in terms of x and y, 245 degree angle intersect at (-x,-y).
