1.5.6 Graphs of basic trigonometric functions

Card 1 of 25

What value does y=sin⁡θy=\sin\thetay=sinθ have at θ=0∘\theta=0^\circθ=0∘?

A

sin⁡0∘=0\sin 0^\circ=\mathbf{0}sin0∘=0.

B

The reference angle gives the size; the quadrant gives the sign.

C

cos⁡30∘=\cos30^\circ=cos30∘= 32\boxed{\frac{\sqrt3}{2}}23​​​, cos⁡45∘=\cos45^\circ=cos45∘= 22\frac{\sqrt2}{2}22​​, and cos⁡60∘=\cos60^\circ=cos60∘= 12\frac1221​.

D

12\frac1221​, since 750∘−720∘=30∘750^\circ-720^\circ=30^\circ750∘−720∘=30∘.
