Let $l$ be the tangent line at the point $P(s,\ t)$ on a circle $C:x^2+y^2=1$. Denote by $m$ the line passing through the point $(1,\ 0)$, parallel to $l$. Let the line $m$ intersects the circle $C$ at $P'$ other than the point $(1,\ 0)$. Note : if $m$ is the line $x=1$, then $P'$ is considered as $(1,\ 0)$. Call $T$ the operation such that the point $P'(s',\ t')$ is obtained from the point $P(s,\ t)$ on $C$. (1) Express $s',\ t'$ as the polynomials of $s$ and $t$ respectively. (2) Let $P_n$ be the point obtained by $n$ operations of $T$ for $P$. For $P\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2},\ \frac{1}{2}\right)$, plot the points $P_1,\ P_2$ and $P_3$.
