Why is the sine positive in quadrants 1 and 2?
Sine is = to opposite side/hypotenuse, using a triangle with sides of opposite ~ 1, adjacent ~ 1 and hypotenuse ~ root(2), hypotenuse is always positive, hypotenuse = root(adjacent.squared * opposite.squared) if either is negative, squaring them brings it back to a positive and as the opposite side is the rise from the base line ( 0 degrees through to 180 degrees) it is positive in both quadrants 1 and 2 in quadrant 1, sine= 1/root(2) which is positive in quadrant 2, sine= 1/root(2) which is positive in quadrant 3, sine= -1/root(2) which is negative in quadrant 4, sine= -1/root(2) which is negative so sine is positive in quadrants 1 and 2 and is negative in 3 and 4
