y=sinxy = \sin xy=sinx is the yyy-coordinate of a point on the unit circle for an angle xxx in radians. Its period is 2π2\pi2π and its range is −1≤y≤1-1 \leq y \leq 1−1≤y≤1.
It equals 000 at x=0, π, 2πx = 0,\ \pi,\ 2\pix=0, π, 2π and is an odd function, symmetric about the origin. Edit the expression to overlay cos\coscos or tan\tantan and compare them.
