Verbal

1) Draw an angle in standard position. Label the vertex, initial side, and terminal side.

Answer: $Ex 5.1.1.png$

2) Explain why there are an infinite number of angles that are coterminal to a certain angle.

3) State what a positive or negative angle signifies, and explain how to draw each.

Answer: Whether the angle is positive or negative determines the direction. A positive angle is drawn in the counterclockwise direction, and a negative angle is drawn in the clockwise direction.

4) How does radian measure of an angle compare to the degree measure? Include an explanation of $1$ radian in your paragraph.

5) Explain the differences between linear speed and angular speed when describing motion along a circular path.

Answer: Linear speed is a measurement found by calculating distance of an arc compared to time. Angular speed is a measurement found by calculating the angle of an arc compared to time.
