use this unit circle
http://etc.usf.edu/clipart/43200/43215/unit-circle7_43215_lg.gif
locate the angle pi/6
then mark the corresponding point to this angle
the x coordinate of this point is equal to `cos(pi/6)`
the y coordinate of this point is equal to `sin(pi/6)`
divide `sin(pi/6)` over `cos(pi/6)` to get `tan(pi/6)`

do i get 3 answer?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
yes you'll have 3 different results for sine, cosine, tangent
OpenStudy (anonymous):
DO i write the answer in degree or fraction?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
they'll be fractions with square roots in them

do you see how I got \[\Large \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\] ??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
im so confuse
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
whats the y coordinate of that point
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is the answer just radical 3/2
