The graph of looks like this:

Sine and cosine range from -1 to 1, and have a period of (4 quadrants).
Over a period, they go full circle, up to 1, down to -1, and back.
So, within a period, they go twice through any value other than the extremes, -1 and 1, once on the way up, and another time on the way down, and in different quadrants.
in quadrants II (), and III (, so there will be a solution for in each of those quadrants.
is one of 5 numbers that you will see in many problems about trigonometric function values.
is the opposite value, corresponding to the supplementary angle, and to .
Points , , and are circled
