This example demonstrates the graphs of sine and cosine functions. Key mathematical concepts include trigonometry. Using GeoGebra commands such as Intersect, Circle, and OrthogonalLine, the sine and cosine graphs are constructed. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  2. Circle(M, r) → c
  3. OrthogonalLine(X, xAxis) → g
  4. Intersect(g, xAxis) → A
  5. Polygon(M, A, X) → poly1, rcos, rsin, radius
  6. OrthogonalLine(X_{sin}, xAxis) → h
  7. Intersect(xAxis, h) → B
  8. Segment(B, X_{sin}) → i
  9. Segment(X, X_{sin}) → j
  10. Segment(D, C) → f
  11. Intersect(f, g) → X'
  12. OrthogonalLine(M, xAxis) → k
  13. Intersect(f, k) → M'
  14. Segment(A, X') → l
  15. Segment(M', X') → m
  16. Segment(X', X_{cos}) → n
