• ​A reference angle is the acute angle formed by the terminal side of the given angle and the x-axis. 

• A reference angle is always positive and is always less than 90º.

• To calculate - we measure THE DISTANCE TO/FROM THE X-AXIS!

• This helps us when we have angles larger that 360 degrees. We can simplify the work if we can refer to a smaller angle.

​Reference Angles

Multiple Select

Which is true about reference angles?

• They're acute

• Formed using the y-axis and terminal side.

• Formed using the x-axis and terminal side.

• Used to calculate with large angles.

• They're right angles.

1. Determine the quadrant location of the given angle

   1. You will have to find a co-terminal angle for angles above 360⁰ or negative angles.

2. Use the formula for the determined quadrant.

   1. For Example: If a given angle is in Quadrant II --> θ_r=180-θ

​How to Find a Reference Angle

​Remember:  The reference angle is measured from the terminal side of the original angle "to" the x-axis (not "to" the y-axis).

Using the Unit Circle

• To use the Unit Circle to evaluate cosine, sine, or tangent we use the coordinates of the point of intersection between the terminal side of the angle and the Unit Circle.

• The x-coordinate of the point is equal to the cosine of the angle.

• The y-coordinate of the point is equal to the sine of the angle.

• To find the tangent of an angle you take the y-coordinate/x-coordinate.
