Need major help #1
Hey guys. I have a big exam coming tomorrow for maths. I'm studying but I do not understand what this is telling me. This is about sin & cosine functions.

Where did 1/4 come from?
All help is appreciated.

First of all, it's explaining that their is two Pi Radians in one revolution, or in this case a 360° Sine/Cosine wave. As you can see, the area of the wave that is being highlighted is 8 Pi Radians, which is 4x bigger than one revolution (2 Pi Radians/360°). So it's basically saying, you need to scale it (multiply) to get to the number 8.

Break Down:
2 Radians are in a typical Cosine/Sine wave.
Their are 2 Pi Radians in one revolution. (360°)
Cosine/Sine waves are generally 360°.
-----------
Scale = Since 2 Radians is the limit, we need to get to 8 Radians. What do we do to get from 2 Radians to 8? You times two by 4.
-----------

You get that? It's 2:20am, and I'm a little tired.

I didn't even look at it in that perpective of the 360° revolution.

This clears up a lot. Thanks Sirius.

Please remain on topic, this thread went way off topic and only reason I'm not handing out warnings is because I'd have to warn about 5 of you.
