Unit Circle Symmetries
This applet explores the relationship between the unit circle and the sine function, focusing on the y-axis symmetry. Students can observe how the sine function behaves on the unit circle using commands like Circle, Segment, and Angle. Suitable for high school mathematics education to help students understand the basic concepts of trigonometric functions.

AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a unit circle and mark a point A on it, then draw a segment a from the center O to point A. Next, place a point B symmetric to A with respect to the y-axis and draw a segment b from O to B. Finally, draw angle α from point E to O to A, and observe the relationship between angle α and segments a and b to understand the behavior of the sine function on the unit circle.
