PERFORMANCE TASK 2 IN PRE-CALCULUS (Q2)
Circular Functions
Title: "Real-Life Applications of Circular Functions"
Objective: To apply knowledge of circular functions (sine, cosine, tangent, etc.) in
formulating and solving real-world situational problems accurately, while
demonstrating a clear understanding of their practical applications.
Instructions
1. Understand the Context
Review the properties and graphs of circular functions, including their
domains, ranges, periodicity, amplitude, and phase shifts.
2. Choose a Real-World Scenario
Select one of the following contexts or propose your own:
o Physics: Modeling the motion of a pendulum or a Ferris wheel.
o Engineering: Analyzing the behavior of rotating machinery or wave
patterns.
o Astronomy: Tracking the movement of celestial bodies using periodic
functions.
o Architecture: Designing structures that incorporate curves or circular
patterns.
3. Formulate a Problem
o Describe a real-world situation involving circular motion or periodic
behavior.
o Clearly state what needs to be solved (e.g., maximum height, time for
a cycle, distance traveled).
4. Solve the Problem
o Represent the problem mathematically using circular functions (sine,
cosine, tangent).
o Identify key parameters such as amplitude, period, phase shift, and
vertical shift.
o Solve the problem step by step, ensuring accuracy in calculations.
5. Create a Visual Representation
o Draw graphs or diagrams to illustrate the circular function and its
parameters.
o Use labels and annotations to clarify the connection between the graph
and the real-world context.

6. Write a Reflection Report
o Summarize the problem, the solution process, and the result.
o Reflect on the significance of circular functions in solving real-world
problems.
o Discuss challenges encountered and how they were addressed.
7. Present Your Work
o Prepare a presentation (3-5 minutes) summarizing your problem,
solution, and reflections.
o Use visuals (e.g., slides, posters) to enhance your explanation.
Example Situational Problems and Solutions
1. Scenario: Ferris Wheel Ride
o Problem: A Ferris wheel has a radius of 20 meters and completes one
revolution every 60 seconds. Model the height of a rider as a function
of time and determine the rider's height after 25 seconds.
o Solution: Use h ( t )=20 sin ( 30π t− π2 )+20, and evaluate h(25).
2. Scenario: Tides at the Beach
o Problem: The water level at a beach varies sinusoidally with a
maximum of 6 meters and a minimum of 2 meters every 12 hours.
Write a function modeling the water level and determine when it
reaches 4 meters.
o Solution: Use h ( t )=2 sin ( π6 t )+ 4, solve h ( t )=4 .
3. Scenario: Pendulum Motion
o Problem: A pendulum swings back and forth, reaching a maximum
angular displacement of ±30∘\pm 30^\circ±30∘ every 2 seconds. Write
a function for its angular displacement and find its position after 1.25
seconds.
o Solution: Use θ ( t )=20 cos (πt), and evaluate θ(1. 25).
