Note: Some values in the table are given in forms that include a radical in the denominator — this is done both to simplify recognition of reciprocal pairs and because the form given in the table is simpler in some sense. Note also that all absolute values of trigonometric functions for remarkable points that are listed in this table are contained in the first quadrant (from 0 to 90° or π 2 {\displaystyle {\frac {\pi }{2}}} radians, inclusive); all others are deduced by simple symmetries with the horizontal or vertical axis, or by swapping axes (on the trigonometric circle) so that one trigonometric function is also swapped with its co-function.
Notice that for certain values of x {\displaystyle x} , the tangent, cotangent, secant, and cosecant functions are undefined. This is because these functions are defined as sin ( x ) cos ( x ) {\displaystyle {\frac {\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}}} , cos ( x ) sin ( x ) {\displaystyle {\frac {\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}}} , 1 cos ( x ) {\displaystyle {\frac {1}{\cos(x)}}} , and 1 sin ( x ) {\displaystyle {\frac {1}{\sin(x)}}} , respectively. Since an expression is undefined if it contains division by 0, the functions are therefore undefined at angle measures where the denominator (the sine or cosine of x {\displaystyle x} , depending on the trigonometric function) is equal to 0. For example, the tangent function for 90º ( π / 2 {\displaystyle \pi /2\,} radians) is equivalent to sin ( π 2 ) cos ( π 2 ) {\displaystyle {\frac {\sin \left({\frac {\pi }{2}}\right)}{\cos \left({\frac {\pi }{2}}\right)}}} , or 1 0 {\displaystyle {\frac {1}{0}}} , which is an undefined value.
