how can we memorize easily the radians of unit circle
I have a method
|dw:1408775594224:dw|
oh is this a tutorial?
or do you really want to know an easy way to memorize the unit circle?

First the pattern of radians, all the radian numbers multiplied by pi as you go along around the circle counter clockwise can be remembered by this simple pattern: -> 2 3 5 4 5 7 <- -> 5 7 11 remember pi/2 and 3pi/4 are on the top and bottom respectably and closer to the verticle lines it is pi/3 and closer to the horizontal lines it is pi/6 middle is pi/4 Next remember cos = x and sin = y the coordinates are easy for each just count |dw:1408775892950:dw| just square each number on the top and divide by 2 you can easily remember what is negative by knowing that all positive x values are to the right of the vertical line, and all negative x values are to the left of the vertical line. positive y values are above the horizontal line and negative y values are below the horizontal line
