Description

I think there is a need for an option for equal x and y axis units

For these two equations, the lines should be perpendicular. Since the units for x and y are different, this property is not visible.

Also, the equation of a circle does not look like a circle:

Research direction

Start by locating the graphing view that renders the x and y axes and review how their scales are chosen. Reproduce the two line equations and circle shown in the issue; done means an available option keeps equal x/y unit ratios so perpendicular lines and circles appear geometrically correct.
