Let $X=\{(x,\sin(x)): x \in \mathbb{A}^{2}\}$. I want to find the closure (with respect Zariski topology) of $X \subseteq \mathbb{A}^{2}$.
OK I've already shown that $X$ is not a closed set. Now consider $cl(X)$ this is a closed subset of $\mathbb{A}^{2}$ so its dimension is $0,1$ or $2$, it is not $0$ because it is not a point. So either $cl(X)$ has dimension $1$ or $2$. I suspect the answer is $2$. If the dimension is $1$ then $X=V(f)$ for some $f \in k[x,y]$ with $f$ irreducible. This implies then that $f(a,\sin(a))=0$ for every $a \in \mathbb{A}^{1}$.
Question: does this implies that $f$ is the zero polynomial?
From this it would follow that the dimension is $2$ so $cl(X)=\mathbb{A}^{2}$.
