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 ...
The interior of the unit circle is called the open unit disk, while the interior of the unit circle combined with the unit circle itself is called the closed unit disk. One may also use other notions of "distance" to define other "unit circles", such as the Riemannian circle; see the article on mathematical norms for additional examples.
English: Some common angles (multiples of 30 and 45 degrees) and the corresponding sine and cosine values shown on the Unit circle. The angles (θ) are given in degrees and radians, together with the corresponding intersection point on the unit circle, (cos θ, sin θ).

All of the right-angled triangles are similar, i.e. the ratios between their corresponding sides are the same. For sin, cos and tan the unit-length radius forms the hypotenuse of the triangle that defines them. The reciprocal identities arise as ratios of sides in the triangles where this unit line is no longer the hypotenuse.
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.
