Every Angle for a Value
Part of the Angles and the Unit Circle section of Coddy's Trigonometry journey. Lesson 36 of 55.
To find every angle in one turn with a given value, run the method backwards. The size names the reference angle; the sign names two quadrants.
Take . The size √2/2 means reference angle 45°. Sine is negative in quadrants III and IV. In III the angle is 180° + 45° = 225°; in IV it is 360° − 45° = 315°. So two angles, one in each quadrant where the sign fits.
The usual slip is to stop after one angle. Every value strictly between −1 and 1 occurs twice in a turn.
