Problem 2

The clock reads 3:00 p.m.

Which of the following are true? Select all that apply.

A clock. The hour hand is pointing to the 3. The minute hand is pointing to the 12.
A:

In the next hour, the minute hand moves through an angle of \(2\pi\) radians.

B:

In the next 5 minutes, the minute hand will move through an angle of \(\text-\frac{\pi}{6}\) radians.

C:

After the minute hand moves through an angle of \(\text-\pi\) radians, it is 3:30 p.m.

D:

When the hour hand moves through an angle of \(\text-\frac{\pi}{6}\) radians, it is 4:00 p.m.

E:

The angle the minute hand moves through is 12 times the angle the hour hand moves through.

Problem 5

Here is a unit circle with a point \(P\) at \((1,0)\).

For each positive angle of rotation of the unit circle around its center listed, indicate on the unit circle where \(P\) is taken, and give a negative angle of rotation which takes \(P\) to the same location.

A circle with center at the origin of an x y plane. Point P lies on the outside of the circle, on the x axis, to the right of the origin.
