75. Any point (x,y) on the terminal side of θ satisfies cosθ=xr,sinθ=yr. For the point P where r=1,cosθ=x,sinθ=y. The arc of length t is spanned by an angle θ in standard position. Because arclength is rθ and r=1,t=θ, so x=cost,y=sint.

77. The two right triangles shown are similar, so their sides are proportional. The hypotenuse of the large triangle is r times the hypotenuse of the small triangle, so the two legs of the large triangle must be r times the legs of the small triangle. Thus, because the coordinates of the vertex on the unit circle are (cosθ,sinθ), the coordinates of P must be (rcosθ,rsinθ).
