I was searching for help on my 3D flight sim http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/eventexception/2088087 but was impatient and tried to help myself. The blue bar is a plane or car direction vector, for your math teacher it was something else. Truck positioning is X * 2 Plane positioning is X only, showing direction seen from above. Hope these samples help you to use SIN / COS for your games!

So if you know you want to move your sprite with the speed of 100 pixels or any other number in a specific direction, you still dont know where to display your object in X and Y coordinates. Ok in a 2D world the Scratch motion command ´move 100 steps´ will do the same, but i needed something for a 3D world, maybe you need something for any ideas with curves and circles! AFTER writing this project i found other users already did similar projects here, but i believe mine is still helpful in a practical way how to apply it to your projects.
