Trigonometric functions at related angles

Using the geometric symmetry of the unit circle, some trigonometric functions can be established. You can calculate the trigonometric functions of an angle in the second, third or fourth quadrant using its ratio with the first quadrant.

Complementary angles.
Two angles are aomplementary if they add up to 90 degrees.

Ángulo complementarioIf A and B are two angles where A+B=90º, that is, B=90º - A, we have:
sinA = cos B, so that, sin A = cos(90º-A)
cosA = sin B , so that, cosA=sin(90º-A)
Similarly, tgA = cotgB


If sinA = 0.707 and cosA = 0.707

Calculate the sine, cosine and tangent of the complementary angle of A.

Solution: Sine = Cosine = Tangent =
