This example demonstrates the relationship between the unit circle and sine and tangent functions through dynamic visualization of red and green line coordinates corresponding to trigonometric values. Core math concepts include the unit circle, sine, tangent, and coordinate geometry. It is constructed using GeoGebra commands like Point, Circle, Intersect, Rotate, Angle, Segment, OrthogonalLine, Tangent, Line, Ray, suitable for high school mathematics teaching to understand the definition and graph of trigonometric functions.

AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a unit circle and trigonometric function graph. The circle has center at the origin and radius 1. Draw a horizontal and vertical axis. Take a point B on the circle, rotate it to get point P. Draw a segment from A to P, and draw a line perpendicular to the horizontal axis intersecting the horizontal axis at point C. Draw the tangent to the circle at B and the line from A to P, their intersection is D. Connect A to C and C to P. Draw a segment from B to D and a ray from D to C. Connect other points to form the graph. Ensure the graph is clear, showing the unit circle, trigonometric values, and coordinate relationships.
