Evaluating Sine and Cosine at Special Acute Angles
If you want to make your math life incredibly easier, memorize the sine and cosine values for π/3, π/4, and π/6, as well as 0, π/2, and π. These values constantly reappear throughout Trigonometry and pre-Calculus problems and proofs. When evaluating sine, it is also useful to memorize the conversion from radians to degrees for these values; for example, to remember that π/6 is equivalent to 30°.
