Graphs of Sine, Cosine and Tangent

Here are some nice graphs to look at ...

Plot of Sine

The Sine Function has this beautiful up-down curve (which repeats every 2π radians, or 360°).
It starts at 0, heads up to 1 by π/2 radians (90°) and then heads down to -1.

Plot of Cosine

Cosine is just like Sine, but it starts at 1 and heads down until π radians (180°) and then heads up again.

Plot of Sine and Cosine

In fact Sine and Cosine are like good friends: they follow each other, exactly "π/2" radians, or 90°, apart.

Plot of the Tangent Function
