Radians

We learned about how to measure an angle in Radians today.  Check out this visual example of what we did in class.  http://www.mathsisfun.com/definitions/radian.html.  Click on what is a radian and watch the computer do what we did with our string and circle.  Here is another site that gives some pretty good examples for helping you understand what we have learned in class the past two days.  https://braingenie.ck12.org/skills/108075.

6th period Precalculus class if you look at section 1.4 and it doesn’t look like what we talked about in class it’s because I should have said section 1.5!  SORRY!
