Trig equations & identities (Lesson 3/8)

Trigonometric Functions

1 / 16

Graphs of ​sinx​ and ​cosx​

In the previous lesson, we saw that ​(cosθ,sinθ)​ are the coordinates of a point on the unit circle whose angle to the ​x​-axis is ​θ:

If we trace the values of ​sinθ​ and ​cosθ​ with ​θ​ on the ​x​-axis, we find their sinusoidal graphs:
