\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The sign of the sine function is the same as the sign of the y-coordinate of a point in the quadrant containing the terminal ray of the argument of the function. The sign of the cosine function is the same as the sign of the x-coordinate of a point in the quadrant containing the terminal ray of the argument of the function.\r
