The trigonometric functions cosine and sine of angle θ may be defined on the unit circle as follows: If (x, y) is a point on the unit circle, and if the ray from the origin (0, 0) to (x, y) makes an angle θ from the positive x-axis, (where counterclockwise turning is positive), then = =.
English: A unit circle with sine (sin), cosine (cos), tangent (tan), cotangent (cot), versine (versin), coversine (cvs), exsecant (exsec), excosecant (excsc) and (indirectly) also secant (sec), cosecant (csc) as well as chord (crd) and arc labeled as trigonometric functions of angle theta. It is designed as alternative construction to "Circle ...
All of the trigonometric functions of the angle θ (theta) can be constructed geometrically in terms of a unit circle centered at O. Sine function on unit circle (top) and its graph (bottom) In this illustration, the six trigonometric functions of an arbitrary angle θ are represented as Cartesian coordinates of points related to the unit circle.
Ptolemy's theorem states that the sum of the products of the lengths of opposite sides is equal to the product of the lengths of the diagonals. When those side-lengths are expressed in terms of the sin and cos values shown in the figure above, this yields the angle sum trigonometric identity for sine: sin(α + β) = sin α cos β + cos α sin β.
Masing-masing ordinat A, B dan D merupakan nilai dari sin θ, tan θ dan csc θ, sedangkan masing-masing absis dari A, C dan E merupakan nilai cos θ, cot θ dan sec θ. العربية: في هذا الرسم، الدوال المثلثية الستة لزاوية اختيارية θ ممثلة إحداثياتٍ ديكارتية للنقاط ...
English: This is a graphical construction of the various trigonometric functions from a chord AD (angle θ) of the unit circle centered at O. In addition to the modern trigonometric functions sin (sine), cos (cosine), tan (tangent), cot (cotangent), sec (secant), and csc (cosecant), the diagram also includes a few trigonometric functions that have fallen into disuse: chord, versin (versine or ...

Animation demonstrating how the sine function (in red) is graphed from the y-coordinate (red dot) of a point on the unit circle (in green), at an angle of θ. The cosine (in blue) is the x-coordinate. Using the unit circle definition has the advantage of drawing a graph of sine and cosine functions.
