Explore the formation of sine, cosine, and tangent functions by tracing angles on the unit circle. This example covers key concepts such as the unit circle, angles, and segments, using GeoGebra commands like Point, Circle, Intersect, Rotate, Angle, and Segment. Suitable for high school math education and students learning trigonometry.

AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a unit circle on a coordinate system and mark a point on the x-axis. Draw a tangent line from this point to the circle. Rotate the point on the x-axis around the circle by an angle to get a new point. Connect the original point and the new point. Draw a perpendicular line from the new point to the x-axis to find another intersection point. Connect the origin to the new point and find the intersection of the tangent line and the perpendicular line. Finally, draw all the points and line segments to illustrate the formation of sine, cosine, and tangent functions.
