AP CALCULUS The Unit circle Review 1
Def: If the terminal side of an angle is in standard position and intersects the unit circle at P(x,y) then x = cos Ɵ and y = sin Ɵ Trig functions defined using the unit circle are called circular functions.
1.) Find the exact values for the trig functions for 45o
2.) Find the exact values for the trig functions:
Def: Quadrantal Angles: Angles whose terminal side coincides with either the x-axis or the y-axis are called quadrantal angles.
