    Salient values of trigonometric functions

    I noticed this pattern in the early 1990s:
    \(x\) in degrees:\(0^\circ\)\(30^\circ\)\(45^\circ\)\(60^\circ\)\(90^\circ\)
    \(x\) in radians:\(0\)\(\displaystyle\frac\pi6\)\(\displaystyle\frac\pi4\)\(\displaystyle\frac\pi3\)\(\displaystyle\frac\pi2\)
    "Label":\(0\)\(1\)\(2\)\(3\)\(4\)
    \(\sin(x)\):\(\displaystyle\frac{\sqrt0}2\)\(\displaystyle\frac{\sqrt1}2\)\(\displaystyle\frac{\sqrt2}2\)\(\displaystyle\frac{\sqrt3}2\)\(\displaystyle\frac{\sqrt4}2\)
    If you have seen this published elsewhere I'd be interested in knowing.
