Which of the following explains why using the unit circle?

Question illustration
A
The side opposite a 30° angle is the same as the side adjacent to a 60° angle in a right triangle. On a unit circle, the y (sin) distance of a 30° angle is the same as the x (cos) distance of a 60° angle.
B
The side opposite a 30° angle is the same as the side adjacent to a 60° angle in a right triangle. On a unit circle, the x (sin) distance of a 30° angle is the same as the y (cos) distance of a 60° angle.
C
The ratios describe different sides of the same right triangle. On a unit circle, the y (sin) distance of a 30° angle is the same as the x (cos) distance of a 60° angle.
D
The ratios describe different sides of the same right triangle. On a unit circle, the x (sin) distance of a 30° angle is the same as the y (cos) distance of a 60° angle.
