<introduction>
<p>
Let <m>\theta</m> be the angle shown below in standard form. Notice that the terminal side intersects with the unit circle. (Note: We will assume a circle drawn in the this context is the unit circle unless told otherwise.) We will label that point of intersection as <m>(x,y)</m>.

Can the theta symbol be put at the angle in the diagram? Is that an easy fix?

@siwelwerd can you help with this? Can you adapt show_angle_value to show just $\theta$ instead of the value?

Try setting show_angle_value="$\theta$" and report back... I think I put that feature in already but need to update the wiki

For this one (and the one below), I was trying to not mention which one had the x (or y) in it so they had to deduce which one helped with which coordinate. Would it be better to point it out explicitly?

I'm not sure its obvious that we've been working with the special right triangles this whole section....

Do we want to add in a hint about using the Pythagorean Theorem?

@siwelwerd show_angle_value="$\theta$" gives this:

Whomp whomp.

Oh yeah, sorry, \t is an escape sequence in Python strings. show_angle_value=r"$\theta$" will do it (the r in front of the string tells Python to interpret it as a "raw" string, no escape characters)
