y x r (a, b)
Find the exact value of each of the six trigonometric functions of a positive angle if (-2, 3) is a point on the terminal side. y (-2, 3) x
y x P= (1, 0) P= (a, b)
y P= (0,1) x
y a > 0, b > 0, r > 0 a < 0, b > 0, r > 0 x r (a, b) a < 0, b < 0, r > 0 a > 0, b < 0, r > 0

Two angles in standard position are said to be coterminal if they have the same terminal side. y x
Let denote a nonacute angle that lies in a quadrant. The acute angle formed by the terminal side of and either the positive x-axis or the negative x-axis is called the reference angle for Reference Angle
Finding the reference angle 2. Determine the quadrant in which the terminal side of the angle formed by the angle lies.
