2. Slide the steel wire between the rails, parallel to x-axis such that the wire
meets with free end of the needle (say P,) (Fig. 6.2).
3. Denote the y-coordinate of the point P, as y,, where y, is the perpendicular
distance of steel wire from the x-axis of the unit circle giving y, = sin x,.
4. Rotate the needle further anticlockwise and keep it at the angle 1 — x,. Find
the value of y-coordinate of intersecting point P, with the help of sliding
steel wire. Value of y-coordinate for the points P, and P, are same for the
different value of angles, y, = sinx, and y, = sin (1 — x,). This demonstrates
that sine function is not one-to-one for angles considered in first and second
quadrants.
5. Keep the needle at angles — x, and (— % + x,), respectively. By sliding down
the steel wire parallel to x-axis, demonstrate that y-coordinate for the points
P, and P, are the same and thus sine function is not one-to-one for points
