    Why is there an angle in the second quadrant?
    For any given angle in the first quadrant, there is an angle in the second quadrant with the same sine value because the sine value is the ratio \frac {y} {r}, and y coordinates are positive in Quadrant I and Quadrant II.

    Why is there an angle in the second quadrant?
     
  1. In trigonometry, the sine quadrant refers to the different quadrants of the coordinate plane where the sine function has positive or negative values12. Specifically:

    The distance from a point to the origin is always positive, but the signs of the x and y coordinates may be positive or negative. Thus, in the first quadrant, where x and y coordinates are all positive, all six trigonometric functions have positive values. In the second quadrant, only sine and cosecant (the reciprocal of sine) are positive.

    The sine function has values positive or negative depending upon the quadrants. In the above table, it is seen that sine 270 is negative while sine 90 is positive. For the sine function, the value depends upon the quadrants and is positive for the first and second quadrants while it is negative for values in the third and fourth quadrants.

    Which trigonometric functions are positive in the 3rd quadrant?
    In the third quadrant, only tangent and cotangent are positive. Finally, in the fourth quadrant, only cosine and secant are positive. The following diagram may help clarify. When an angle lies along an axis, the values of the trigonometric functions are either 0, 1, -1, or undefined.

    How many quadrants are there in a trigonometric function?
    There are eight regions in which the terminal side of an angle may lie: in any of the four quadrants, or along the axes in either the positive or negative direction (the quadrantal angles). Each situation means something different for the signs of the trigonometric functions.

    How to find a sine and cosine function?
    The definition of the sine and cosine functions depends on the coordinates of a point on the terminal side of an angle in standard position. In order to find the sine and cosine function values, this point can be given to us. Alternatively, if we are given an angle with a terminal side on one of the axes, the point can be chosen by us.

    How are cosine and sine values determined in trigonometry?
    So the cosine and sine values are determined by the arc \ (t\) and the cosine and sine are functions of the arc \ (t\). Since the arc lies on the unit circle, we call the cosine and sine circular functions. An important part of trigonometry is the study of the cosine and sine and the periodic phenomena that these functions can model.

    How do you determine the sign of a sine function?
    The value of the radius r of a circle is ALWAYS positive. Therefore, the sign of a sine or cosine function is entirely determined by the signs of x and y for a point on the terminal side of the angle. In this chapter, we will explore these functions using both circles and right triangles.
