B.O.B. Moment of Clarity

When dealing with sec, or csc of a radian, I had no idea what was going on. I knew that I had to use the Unit circle for it, but did not understand how to use it. After staring at the circle for quite some time, and flipping the paper over to see how the Unit Circle was divided up, everything made sense!!! I then understood why at some points you had to go clockwise on the Unit Circle, and how far you had to go according to the denominator of the fraction. I felt so relieved at that point! Then I was able to use cos and sin to solve the problem. It was a fantastic moment right there :)
