Quick answer

On the unit circle, a point at angle θ has coordinates (cos θ, sin θ), and tan θ is their ratio.

(x, y) = (cos θ, sin θ)

Frequently asked questions

Why is tan undefined at 90°?

Cosine is zero there, so the ratio divides by zero.

What are the common angles?

0, 30, 45, 60 and 90 degrees have exact surd values worth memorising.
