The amount of rotation determines the measure of the angle. An angle is in standard position if its vertex is at the origin and its initial side lies along the positive x-axis. A positive angle is measured counterclockwise from the initial side and a negative angle is measured clockwise.

This section provides the fundamental building blocks for working with the most basic quantity in Trigonometry - the angle. We delve into as much detail about angles as we dare, without introducing unnecessary topics. We cover a little bit of required Geometry for success in Trigonometry, and wrap things up with a brief geometric review of circles (another foundational topic for Trigonometry).

This circle is given a name: the unit circle. An angle is in standard position if its initial side is along the positive x-axis and its vertex is at the origin: point (0,0). An angle that rotates in the counter-clockwise direction is a positive angle. An angle that rotates in the clockwise direction is a negative angle.

It also explores angles in the Cartesian coordinate system, covering quadrants, angles in standard position, and coterminal angles. This foundation is critical for understanding Trigonometry's broader concepts, with practical examples and checkpoints to ensure comprehension.
