MTH 114 EXAM 3 REVIEW TOPICS

INVERSES:

- Know the domain and range of y = arcos x, y=arcsinx and y=arctanx

- Know the graphs and key points of y = arcos x, y=arcsinx and y=arctanx

- Understand that the input and output must be of any trig or inverse trig function.

- Be able to evaluate EXACTLY the value of arctrig(#) where that # is on the unit circle. REMEMBER, angles MUST be in radian mode – NEVER degrees, and in the correct quadrant for the range of the arctrig function.

- Be able to approximate the value of arctrig(#) using your calculator.

- Determine if trig(arctrig(#))=# or arctrig(trig(angle)=angle based on the domain and range

- Evaluate trig(arctrig(#)) or arctrig(trig(angle)) EXACTLY.

- Make sure you can do all of the problems from the inverse trig worksheet posted at

IDENTITIES:

Make sure you have memorized all of the identities and recognize them in different forms!

Be able to simplify expressions using algebra and trig ID’s

Given the value of one trig x = # and info about a quadrant, find the value of all other trig functions using trig ID’s only (NO Triangles allowed).

Be able to verify Identities. Remember you MUST WORK ON ONE SIDE ONLY, clearly show all steps. Make sure you NEVER drop your variables cos is not the same as cos x! Practice problems using all of the common techniques – using id’s, combining fractions, breaking up fractions, simplifying complex fractions, conjugates, expanding or combining sum formulas, double angle, half-angle id’s, converting to all sines and cosines etc. Watch out for common algebra mistakes!

Find the exact value of sin, cos or tan of an angle that is the sum or difference of 2 angles on the unit circle or half an angle on the unit circle. For example evaluate sin(13π/12) or tan(17π/12), cos(π/8) etc. You may need to find the angles yourself! You will likely be required to simplify expressions completely. This may require simplifying complex fractions, radical expressions or rationalizing denominators etc.

Given trig A = # and info about what quadrant A is in, and trig(B) = # and info about the quadrant B is in, find the EXACT value of

Trig(A+/- B), Trig(-A), Trig(pi/2 – A), Trig(2A), Trig (A/2), a different trig function of A etc. You may be required to simplify your answers completely. Make sure you remember to draw your triangles in the appropriate quadrants and analyze the sign values get the proper sign values of the missing sides. You MUST SHOW the Pythagorean step AND justification for the sign of the missing side to receive full credit. WATCH CAREFULLY that the legs of your triangle are correct for the quad you are in and the reference angle and sides are clearly labeled in your picture. When solving half angle problems, make sure you remember to carefully analyze the sign value and quadrants. The sign outside the radical comes from the sign in the quad of the angle A/2. You must show the work identifying what quadrant A/2 is in and why you chose the sign value this to receive full credit. The sign under the radical is the sign of cos A in the quad of the angle A. Watch sign values CAREFULLY!

Find the exact value of Trig(U+/- V), Trig(-U), Trig(2U), Trig (U/2) where U and V are of the form invtrig(#). For example [pic] or [pic]

Make sure you can do all of the problems on the multiple angle worksheet posted at !

EQUATIONS:

Solving equations: Be able to solve trig equations both in [0, 2pi) and in general. Practice problems with a variety of techniques – isolating the trig function, factoring, quadratic equation, using trig id’s, taking square roots (DON”T forget the +/-) etc. You should know how to solve them exactly if the # is on the unit circle and approximate on a calculator using reference angles if not. Make sure you understand how to do ALL of the book homework, worksheets graded homework and all examples in class. Make sure you can solve equations involving angles other than just x! Watch out that you do not invent trig id or algebra rules that do not exist!

Solve trig( ) = # not on the unit circle. You will need to show all reference angle work!

Make sure you can do all textbook problems, worksheet problems, lecture examples etc.
