      Using the diagram, answer the following questions:

      1. Can you suggest a way of remembering that \overrightarrow{AB} represents the tangent of \theta?
      2. Can you suggest a way of remembering that \overrightarrow{FE} represents the cotangent of \theta?
      3. Can you suggest a way of remembering that \overrightarrow{OB} represents the secant of \theta?
      4. Can you suggest a way of remembering that \overrightarrow{OE} represents the cosecant of \theta?
