This example demonstrates the movement of a point P on the unit circle and its corresponding sine and cosine values through animation. Key math concepts include the unit circle, trigonometric functions, coordinate system, and geometric transformations. GeoGebra commands used in construction are Intersect, Circle, Polygon, and Angle. It is suitable for high school students to learn and understand the definition of trigonometric functions and the relationship between the unit circle, as well as for classroom demonstrations.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Intersect(xAxis, yAxis) → A
  2. Circle(A, 1) → c
  3. Polygon(A, D, B) → poly1, b, a, d
  4. Angle(F, A, B) → β
