What are the sine, cosine, and tangent of θ = pi/6?

We will use the concept of basic trigonometric formula to find the sine, cosine, and tangent of the given angle.

Answer : The Value of sine (π / 6) = 1 / 2 , cosine (π / 6) = (3^0.5) / 2 and tan (π / 6) = (3^0.5)

Lets see how we will use the concept of basic trigonometric formula to find the sine, cosine, and tangent of the given angle.

Explanation:

sin (θ) = perpendcular / hypotenuse

Replacing θ with π / 6 we get,

sin (π / 6) = 1 / 2  [ From trigonometric ratios of specific angles ]

cosine (θ) = base / hypotenuse

Replacing θ with π / 6 we get,

cosine (θ) = (3^0.5) / 2   [ From trigonometric ratios of specific angles ]

hence,  tan (θ) = sin (π / 6) / cos(π / 6) = 3^0.5   [ From trigonometric ratios of specific angles ]

Therefore, the Value of sine (π / 6) = 1 / 2 , cosine (π / 6) = (3^0.5) / 2 and tan (π / 6) = (3^0.5)
