AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw the graphs of sine and cosine functions based on the unit circle. Start by drawing the unit circle and point B on the x-axis. Rotate point A to generate points P and A', and calculate angles α and β. Then, draw the sine function graph f from point Q to the x-axis, and the unit circle c. Construct line segment a from point B to P, and vectors u, w, and z. Draw a series of horizontal line segments from the origin and vertical line segments from point B. Finally, draw the cosine function graph, including line segment d from point P to Q.
