Determine the coordinates of a point on the unit circle where the angle $ heta $ equals $ frac{pi}{4} $

Answer 1

Abigail Nelson

Maria Rodriguez

To determine the coordinates of a point on the unit circle where $ \theta $ equals $ \frac{\pi}{4} $, we use the unit circle equation:

$ x^2 + y^2 = 1 $

For $ \theta = \frac{\pi}{4} $, the coordinates are:

$ \left( \cos \frac{\pi}{4}, \sin \frac{\pi}{4} \right) $

The values are:

$ \left( \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}, \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \right) $

Answer 2

Alex Thompson

Michael Moore

To determine the coordinates where $ heta $ equals $ frac{pi}{4} $, we use the unit circle:

$ x^2 + y^2 = 1 $

At $ heta = frac{pi}{4} $, the coordinates are:

$ left( cos frac{pi}{4}, sin frac{pi}{4}
ight) $

Which simplifies to:

$ left( frac{sqrt{2}}{2}, frac{sqrt{2}}{2}
ight) $

Charlotte Davis

For $ heta = frac{pi}{4} $ on the unit circle:

$ left( cos frac{pi}{4}, sin frac{pi}{4}
ight) $

Coordinates are:

$ left( frac{sqrt{2}}{2}, frac{sqrt{2}}{2}
ight) $
