Easy Memory Trick
- SIN (Increasing): 0 → 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 (√0/2, √1/2, √2/2, √3/2, √4/2 )
- COS (Decreasing): 4 → 3 → 2 → 1 → 0 (√4/2, √3/2, √2/2, √1/2, √0/2)
- TAN = SIN ÷ COS
Angle: 0° → 30° → 45° → 60° → 90°
tan θ: 0 → 1/√3 → 1 → √3 → Not Defined (∞)
Formula to Remember
- SIN: 0 → 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → √ → ÷2
- COS: 4 → 3 → 2 → 1 → 0 → √ → ÷2
- TAN = SIN ÷ COS
Memory Sentence: "SIN goes Up, COS comes Down, TAN divides them Around."

Trigonometric Table Trick (0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°)
1st: Remember the numbers : 0 → 1 → 2 → 3 → 4
2nd: SIN Trick
Take the square root of each number and divide by 2.
- 0° = √0/2 = 0
- 30° = √1/2 = 1/2
- 45° = √2/2 = 1/√2
- 60° = √3/2
- 90° = √4/2 = 1
Memory: SIN = 0 → 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 (√ and ÷2)
3rd: COS Trick
Write the same numbers in reverse. : 4 → 3 → 2 → 1 → 0
Take the square root and divide by 2.
- 0° = √4/2 = 1
- 30° = √3/2
- 45° = √2/2 = 1/√2
- 60° = √1/2 = 1/2
- 90° = √0/2 = 0
Memory: COS = 4 → 3 → 2 → 1 → 0 (√ and ÷2)
4th: TAN Trick
TAN = SIN ÷ COS
So remember only this: 0 → 1/√3 → 1 → √3 → ∞
Final Memory Chart
Angles: 0° → 30° → 45° → 60° → 90°
SIN: √0/2 → √1/2 → √2/2 → √3/2 → √4/2
COS: √4/2 → √3/2 → √2/2 → √1/2 → √0/2
TAN: 0 → 1/√3 → 1 → √3 → ∞
Golden Rule : i. SIN goes UP, ii. COS comes DOWN, iii. TAN = SIN ÷ COS
Easy Trick
1. TAN and COT are reciprocals
- cot θ = 1 / tan θ
TAN: 0 → 1/√3 → 1 → √3 → ∞
COT: ∞ → √3 → 1 → 1/√3 → 0
2. COS and SEC are reciprocals
- sec θ = 1 / cos θ
COS: 1 → √3/2 → 1/√2 → 1/2 → 0
SEC: 1 → 2/√3 → √2 → 2 → ∞
3. SIN and COSEC are reciprocals
- cosec θ = 1 / sin θ
SIN: 0 → 1/2 → 1/√2 → √3/2 → 1
COSEC: ∞ → 2 → √2 → 2/√3 → 1
