Definition of Trigonometric Functions
• With trigonometric ratios of acute angles in triangles, we are limited to angles between 0 and 90 degrees.
• We now define the trigonometric functions in terms of angles in standard form in the coordinate plane.

• Definition: Let an angle x (in radian measure) be in standard position. Let a point P with coordinates (a,b) be the point of intersection of the terminal side of the angle and the circle of radius r (were r > 0). Then:
