5.04 Angles with exact values

Interactive practice questions

The diagram shows a unit circle with point $P\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}},\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)$P(12,12) marked on the circle. Point $P$P represents a rotation of $45^\circ$45° anticlockwise around the origin from the positive $x$x-axis.
