Frequently Asked Questions

What is the unit circle used for?
The unit circle defines the sine, cosine, and tangent of angles from 0° to 360°. It's fundamental to trigonometry, calculus, and understanding periodic functions.
Can I view values in both degrees and radians?
Yes. Toggle between degrees and radians to see how both representations correspond to the same point on the circle.
Does the tool show all special angle values?
Yes. Special angles (30°, 45°, 60°, 90°, and their equivalents) are highlighted with exact fraction values like √2/2 and √3/2.
