I've noticed some relationships with cosine and square root.
Your list is sometimes given in trig books as a mnemonic device. Looking a little deeper the pattern that the angles in a regular $n$-gon give algebraic values for the $\cos$ function is showing itself, though the pattern of simple surds does not continue, e.g. $\cos (\frac{2\pi}{5})=\frac{1}{4}(\sqrt{5}-1)$
This rules we used in high school with fingers do apply for both sine and cosine see the pictures
