11. Half-turn Theorem
For all theta in radians,
()
cos π + θ = − cosθ
sin (π + θ ) = − sinθ
tan (π + θ ) = tanθ
12. Example 5
Using the unit circle, explain why sin (π − θ ) = sinθ for all θ .
On the unit circle, π = 180° . When you measure theta,
you start at 0°. So, you’re beginning at points that are
reflections of each other. As you plot the values, you will
notice they remain as reflections over the y-axis, which
will keep the y-coordinates the same, which is sinθ .
