Illustrative Mathematics: G Gpe, F Tf Coordinates of Points on a Circle

For Teachers 9th - 10th Standards
For this task, students are shown a unit circle in a plane and an angle measured from the x-axis. They must determine the coordinates of the line segment for the angle and answer a question about the sum of the coordinates. The purpose...
