Evaluating Trig Functions for Any Angle To find the values of the trigonometric functions for any angle , we carry out use the following steps: 1. Find the reference angle associated with the angle . 2. Determine the sign of the trigonometric function of by noting the quadrant in which lies. 3. The value of the trigonometric function of is the same, except possibly for sign, as the value of the trigonometric function of . 5.1 - The Unit Circle
