Find the terminal point on the unit circle for an angle of $ frac{pi}{6} $ radians

Answer 1

Abigail Nelson

Emily Hall

To find the terminal point on the unit circle for an angle of $ \frac{\pi}{6} $ radians, we use the unit circle definition:

The coordinates are given by $ ( \cos( \theta ), \sin( \theta ) ) $.

For $ \theta = \frac{\pi}{6} $:

$ \cos( \frac{\pi}{6} ) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} $

$ \sin( \frac{\pi}{6} ) = \frac{1}{2} $

So, the terminal point is:

$( \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}, \frac{1}{2} )$

Isabella Walker

For an angle $ frac{pi}{6} $ radians on the unit circle, the terminal point coordinates are:

The coordinates are $ ( cos( heta ), sin( heta ) ) $.

For $ heta = frac{pi}{6} $:

$ cos( frac{pi}{6} ) = frac{sqrt{3}}{2} $

$ sin( frac{pi}{6} ) = frac{1}{2} $

Thus, the terminal point is:

$( frac{sqrt{3}}{2}, frac{1}{2} )$

The terminal point for $ frac{pi}{6} $ radians on the unit circle has coordinates:

$( cos( frac{pi}{6} ), sin( frac{pi}{6} ) ) = ( frac{sqrt{3}}{2}, frac{1}{2} )$
