If the degree's middle number is EVEN, then it has a reference angle of 60 .
If the degree's middle number is ODD, then it has a reference angle of Finding the Trigonometric Values of Special Angles
Step 1: Determine what quadrant the angle is in.
Step 2: Determine whether or not the value will be positive or negative.
Step 3: Find the reference angle (30o, 45o, 60o).
Step 4: Determine the value for the given reference angle.
