For two vectors A and B, A·B = ||A||||B||cos(θ)
The well known results: soh, cah, toa
soh: s stands for sine, o stands for opposite and h stands for hypotenuse, sin x =
cah: c stands for cosine, a stands for adjacent h stands for hypotenuse, cos x =
toa: t stands for tan, o stands for opposite and a stands for adjacent, tan x =

sin(nπ ± x) = [ ? ]sin x, cos(nπ ± x) = [ ? ]cos x, tan(nπ ± x) = [ ? ]tan x , the sign ? is for plus or minus
depending on the position of the terminal side. One may remember the four-quadrant rule: (All

in this case the terminal side is in quadrant four where sine is negative.
In the following diagram, each point on the unit circle is labeled first with its coordinates (exact
values), then with the angle in degrees, then with the angle in radians. Points in the lower hemisphere
have both positive and negative angles marked.
