This example demonstrates the graphs of sine, cosine, and tangent functions. Key mathematical concepts include trigonometry. Using GeoGebra commands such as Intersect, Point, Circle, Segment, and Angle, these functions can be constructed. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Intersect(xAxis, yAxis) → A
  2. Point(xAxis) → B
  3. Circle(A, B) → c
  4. Point({cos(θ), sin(θ)}) → C
  5. Point({θ, cos(θ)}) → cosine
  6. Point({θ, sin(θ)}) → sine
  7. Segment((0, 0), C) → a
  8. Angle((1, 0), (0, 0), Rotate[(1, 0), θ, (0, 0)]) → α
  9. Point({θ, tan(θ)}) → tangent
