It is a circle with a radius of 1 unit (in whatever arbitrary measurement system) and a circumference of 2π. > it was a waste of time
What, the whole 5 seconds taken to understand this? Yes, terrible.

It is simply a circle whose radius is set at one unit. Some people have the peculiar notion that they must memorize the coordinates of points on that circle, specifically those that correspond to angles of degree 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 135 and so on. There is no need. If you know how to get sine and cosine values for 30, 45, and 60, then the values of the larger angles having the same reference angle size are easily and quickly figured.

The page count in the texts is a hell of a lot more than 5 seconds of reading and exercises.

I guess I can't argue with the fact that the way it is taught in schools is ridiculously and needlessly complicated. I maintain however that it only takes 5 seconds for even a small child to understand that if you rotate a straight line 360 degrees about a fixed point, the shape you draw is a unit circle.
