### Trigonometric Functions
Here are the trigonometric function evaluations for specific angles.
**tan 45°**
The tangent of 45 degrees.
**cos 180°**
The cosine of 180 degrees.
**sin -30°**
The sine of -30 degrees.
---
For educational purposes, each of these trigonometric functions can be evaluated numerically:
- **tan 45° = 1**
- **cos 180° = -1**
- **sin -30° = -1/2**
These values are derived from the unit circle and basic trigonometric principles. The tangent of 45 degrees is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side in a right triangle, which both are equal, yielding a value of 1. The cosine of 180 degrees, which corresponds to the x-coordinate of the point where the terminal side of the angle intersects the unit circle, is -1. The sine of -30 degrees, representing the y-coordinate of the terminal side of the angle on the unit circle, is -1/2.
