Huh? Do you mean the coordinates of the point on the unit circle that corresponds to that angle? Give the problem exactly as it is stated.

Yes, on the unit circle.

The coordinates of any point on the unit circle corresponding to the angle are

So how do you find the sine and cosine of Well, first you should reduce that fraction. Now what is the sine and cosine of any odd multiple of

could i do (54pi/3 + pi)

if so, then what?

What? Is it or In either case, do as I said and simplify the fraction first. What is 54 (or 57) divided by 3?

so it would be 19pi? after i divide it by 3

are the coordinates (1, 0)?

Try again with the -coordinate. What is the cosine of an odd multiple of

is it -1?
