The amount of rotation determines the measure of the angle. An angle is in standard position if its vertex is at the origin and its initial side lies along the positive x-axis. A positive angle is measured counterclockwise from the initial side and a negative angle is measured clockwise.

The word reference is used because all angles can refer to QI. That is, memorization of ordered pairs is confined to QI of the unit circle. If a standard angle has a reference angle of 30˚, 45˚, or 60˚, the unit circle's ordered pair is duplicated, but the sign value of x or y may need adjustment, depending on the quadrant of the terminal side of the standard angle.

If the two radii form an angle of \(\theta\), measured in radians, then \(\dfrac{\theta}{2\pi }\) is the ratio of the angle measure to the measure of a full rotation and is also, therefore, the ratio of the area of the sector to the area of the circle.
