TASK 1 - CIRCULAR MEASURE CALCULATIONS

P4 solve circular and triangular measurement problems involving the use of radian, sine, cosine and tangent functions

1.(a) Convert 720 from degrees to

(i) radians (ii) revolutions

b) Convert [pic] radians to

(i) degrees (ii) revolutions

(c) Convert 6 revolutions

(i) degrees (ii) radians

[P4 Part]

Leave your answers as multiples of pi [pic] for revolutions and radians in all cases above

2. Work out the length of each arc and area of each sector to 2 decimal places using the following formulas for area of sector and length of an arc:

[pic]

[pic]

Where r is the radius of the circle and [pic] is the angle subtended at the centre in radians.

(a) Radius = 10cm, angle subtended at centre = 720

(b) Radius = 100cm, angle subtended at centre = [pic]/2 rad

[P4 Part ]

TASK 2 - TRIANGULAR MEASURE – SINE, COSINE & TANGENT RULE

P4 solve circular and triangular measurement problems involving the use of radian, sine, cosine and tangent functions

2. Three forces acting on a fixed point are represented by three sides of a triangle ABC of dimensions 7.0 cm, 12.6 cm and 18.25 cm. Determine the angles between the directions of the three forces. (Apply the cosine and sine rules)

TASK 3 – GRAPHS OF SINE, COSINE AND TANGENT OVER A FULL CYCLE

P5 sketch each of the three trigonometric functions over a complete cycle

TASK 1

(a) Using the same axis, plot the graphs of

1: [pic]

2: [pic]

3: [pic]

Over the range[pic]

(b) comment on the periodic cycles of the drawn curves above

[P5]

TASK 4 – APPLICATION OF SINE AND COSINE RULE IN ENGINEERING

P6 produce answers to two practical engineering problems involving the sine and cosine rule

Fig 1 below shows a wall crane.

1. Find the length of the tie and the angle the tie makes with the wall.

[pic]Fig. 1

2. The drawing below shows a metal piece after it has been cut out using the blanking process; dimensions for all sides are in mm.

i) Find the length AC

ii) Find the angle ADC

[P6]

TASK 5 – standard formulae for surface areas and volumes of regular solids

P7 use standard formulae to find surface areas and volumes of regular solids for three different examples respectively

1. Use standard formulae to find surface areas and volumes of the prisms below.
