Answers to the circle module one quiz

1) If the earth is 25,000 miles around at the equator, ( the largest part of the circle ) then that
would make the circumference 25,000 miles. Since the circumference:

C = 2πR and we are looking for R ( the radius from the center of the earth to the surface )

𝐶 25,000
R= = = 3,979 miles.
2𝜋 6.2832

2) If the radius of a circle is 4 inches then:

A = π R2

A = 3.1416 x 42
A = 3.1416 x 16 = 50.2656 sq inches
3) If the trampoline is 3 meters in circumference then:

C=2πR

3 = (2)(3.1416) R
3
= R = .47746
6.2832
4) What is the measure in radians of one degree?
𝜋
10 = 1 x = 0.01745 radian
180 0
𝜋
5) 600 = radians or 1.0472 radians
3
2
6)
2
𝑦
7) The tangent of 900 is undefined because tan θ = at 900 x = 0 and division by 0 is undefined.
𝑥
𝜋
8) If angle θ is 250 then 250 = 25 x = 0.43633 radians
180 0
9) This one is a little tougher if you're not careful. look at the drawing
1
tan = tan = 1 = 450
𝑐𝑜𝑡
cot = 1 +1

1
tan = = 1 but the tan is positive in
1
quadrant 1 and 3
+1

tan = 1 = 2250

− 2 2
So this question has multiple answers it could be cos = or
2 2
− 2 2
sin = or
2 2
tan = 1
If you missed this one, hold on to your hat in module 2
10) tan is +
cos is -
sin is -
