Explain the concept of reference angles in the context of the unit circle.

• Reference angles are the acute angles formed by the terminal side of an angle and the x-axis on the unit circle.

• Reference angles are the angles formed by the intersection of two lines on the unit circle.

• Reference angles are the obtuse angles formed by the terminal side of an angle and the x-axis on the unit circle.

• Reference angles are the angles measured in radians on the unit circle.

How does the unit circle help in understanding periodicity of trigonometric functions?

• It only works for acute angles

• It has no relevance to understanding trigonometric functions

• It is only applicable to calculus

• It provides a visual representation of the relationship between the angle and the trigonometric function values.
