Special Trig Values

These are exact values of sine, cosine, and tangent for standard angles:
Angle \(\sin\theta\) \(\cos\theta\) \(\tan\theta\)
0 1 0
30° \(\dfrac{1}{2}\) \(\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\) \(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)
45° \(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) \(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) 1
60° \(\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\) \(\dfrac{1}{2}\) \(\sqrt{3}\)
90° 1 0 undefined
