i need help guys.can someone pleasd  explain to me  when to use each  of the above quadrants and how?   in trigonometry i can solve the equation  but won′t know the quadrant to use and how.   for example : solve for θ the equation   2sin^2 θ = sin θ  2sin^2 θ− sin θ=0  sinθ(2sinθ − 1)=0  Either sin θ = 0 or θ = sin^(−1) (1/2)  what do i do now?

sinθ(2sinθ−1)=0  sinθ=0 so  θ=0  2sinθ−1=0  sinθ=(1/2)=sin(Π/6)  θ=(Π/6)  now this two value lies in first quaadrant  sinθ=+ve when θ lies in second quadrant  so sin0 also can be written as sin(𝚷−0)  that is sin𝚷  next sin(Π/6) also can be written as   sin(𝚷−(𝚷/6))...sin((5Π)/6)  there is formula pls wait i shall post  sinθ=sinα  θ=nΠ+(−1)^n α

in geometric examples you have to think  which solution fits. i.e. if you calculate an  angle of a triangle it must fit into this triangle  (α+β+γ=180°)  in “free from any praxis” examples you′ll  have to deal with more than one possible  solutions, same as in equations of 2^(nd)  or  higher degree.    it might help to think of the coordinates  of the points of the circle  x^2 +y^2 =1 ⇒  ⇒ cos^2  α +sin^2  α=1 ⇒  ⇒ P= (((cos α)),((sin α)) )  0°<α<90° ⇒ P  in 1^(st)  quadrant  90°<α<180° ⇒ P  in 2^(nd)  quadrant  180°<α<270° ⇒ P  in 3^(rd)  quadrant  180°<α<360° ⇒ P  in 4^(th)  quadrant  α=0°=360° ⇒ P on x^+   α=90° ⇒ P on y^+   α=180° ⇒ P on x^−   α=270° ⇒ P on y^−     electronic calculators handle angles in  ]−180°; 180°] instead of [0°; 360°[ or in  radiant ]−π; π] instead of [0; 2π[  you have to be careful with arc−functions  (always remember what was the question,  or/and try the other possibilities to find out  which answer fits into the given example)    0° 45° 90° 135° 180°     225°  270°    315° 360°  0° 45° 90° 135° 180° −135° −90° −45°    0°  0   (π/4)  (π/2)   ((3π)/4)     π          ((5π)/4)      ((3π)/2)      ((7π)/4)     2π  0   (π/4)  (π/2)   ((3π)/4)     π      −((3π)/4)  −(π/2)   −(π/4)     0
