The formula
sin, cos and tan are ratios of a right triangle’s sides
The unit circle view
On a circle of radius 1, the point at angle θ has coordinates (cos θ, sin θ). That single picture explains everything else: why sine and cosine never leave [−1, 1], why they repeat every 360°, and why sin²θ + cos²θ = 1 — it is just Pythagoras on the radius.
The other three are reciprocals: csc = 1/sin, sec = 1/cos, cot = 1/tan. They are undefined wherever their denominator hits zero.
