    I know a trick my friend made up. If you are trying to fill in a unit circle for degrees, than say, "30, 15, 15, 30, 30, 15, 15, 30." Until you are done filling it out. It would look like this on the circle: 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 135, 150, 180, 210, 225, 240, 270, 300, 315, 330, 360. Keep adding 30 then 15 then 15 then 30 until you get to the end. Hope this helps.

    There are several ways to make things easier. You could remember the Sin() values in order from Sin(0) to Sin(90) as sqrt(x/4) with x varied from 0 to 4, then the Cos() would be the same values but invert their order. Afterwards Tan() is just solving Sin()/Cos().
    Another way is to visualize rows for Sin() and Cos(), Sin() on top, with 30, 45 and 60 degrees as columns, then fill it left to right starting from top left "1,2,3, 3,2,1 ", divide everything by 2 and the numerators get a sqrt except for the ones with 1. You won't get values for 0 or 90 degrees but those are easy if you understand what Sin() and Cos() are on the trig circle.

    FYI this does the whole circle, this is just the first quadrant. Only thing that changes is the signs (+ or -). If the x values are negative then the cosine is negative, and if the y values are negative than sine is negative. So figure out the quadrant and slap on the right negatives and you can do any angle not just up to 90.

    • @joeyenniss9099
      @joeyenniss9099 Год назад

      ​@@kipskip_1203 yes it is the same other than the sign. You can put it in you calculator to double check if you need. Supplementary angles will always give you the same sin and cos just with a different sign ( + or - ) depending on the quadrant the angle ends in. For 135 degrees it is in the second quadrant so the cos will be negative because the x axis is negative, but the sin will stay the same because it is the same positive y value. 225 degrees will return the same value as well, but both sin and cos will be negative because the x and y values are negative in the bottom left quadrant.

    I just try to remember that cos(30) = sqrt(3)/2 is the distance on the x axis and has to be larger than cos(60) = 1/2 since 30 degrees is closer to 0 degrees and cos(0)=1

    Tecmath doesn't follow his own directions at 4:20.
    When finding sin, he's counting all the fingers on the Left side of the finger to arrive at sin, but elsewhere it is those fingers to the right.
    Follow the directions in the first part of the video, and skip the last minute.
    If you're finding Cos, count the # of fingers to the LEFT ... if you're finding Sin, count the # of fingers to the RIGHT.

    • @rileysimmons9886
      @rileysimmons9886 7 лет назад +12

      The sine and cosine value of 45 are the same (as you can see, there are an equal number of fingers on the left and right side of your middle finger), so it didn't really matter which side he used, although he was technically not following his own rule, he wasn't wrong.
