Formulas and Key Relations

Angles and Measurement

1 complete revolution = 360°

1° = 60′ and 1′ = 60″

180° = π radian

1° = π/180 rad and 1 rad = (180/π)°

Arc length l = rθ

Trigonometric Functions on the Unit Circle

sin x = y-coordinate of P(a,b)

cos x = x-coordinate of P(a,b)

tan x = sin x / cos x

cot x = cos x / sin x

sec x = 1 / cos x

Signs in Quadrants and Allied Angles

sin(-x) = -sin x

cos(-x) = cos x

sin(π/2 - x) = cos x

cos(π/2 - x) = sin x

Key relations

If a circle has radius r and central angle θ in radians, then arc length is l = rθ and sector area is A = (1/2)r²θ.
