.

It is the Table angle.


 = .


Each student must know Trigonometry functions values of Table angles, 
as he/she knows  multiplication table.

Solved.

Happy learning.

Maybe this might help for the 1st quadrant.  Notice how the
sines and cosines are all written in the form  
rather than all simplified, so you can see a pattern.



Here it is like that for all the basic 3 trig values sine, cosine, and tangent.

Answer:


Explanation

because of this scratch work:

The angle 135 degrees is in quadrant 2 (northwest quadrant) where 90 < theta < 180.

The reference angle for this quadrant is 180-theta = 180-135 = 45

Then, which is something you should memorize.
Recall that sine is positive in Q2.

Therefore,

--------------------

A shortcut is to use the unit circle to locate angle radians in the upper left quadrant.

You have to scroll down quite a bit to reach this diagram.

This angle has the terminal point where its y coordinate is , which is the sine of the angle mentioned.

This is another way to see how

Side notes:
You don't have to memorize the entire unit circle.
Memorize only Q1 and then use symmetry to fill out the rest (or fill out what you need).
However, if the teacher is reasonable and generous, then s/he should allow the unit circle as a reference sheet on exams.
In real world settings, people use reference sheets and books all the time. Why else would people write them?
