The unit circle

Exact values of sine and cosine at the special angles.

On a circle of radius 1, the coordinates of the point at angle θ are (cos θ, sin θ). The angles 30°, 45°, 60° and their reflections give exact values built from √2 and √3 — worth knowing by heart, and all derivable from two triangles.
