tried more examples

today in class we did more examples of trig questions and learned how to graph on a graping calculator and graphmatica

sept 22 blog post

I am late writing this post due to some complications i ran into yesterday.
In class we were given a work period where we did not learn anything new we were assigned a blog post where we take a question from a previous exam then work it out in the blog post.

more examples of solving trig equations

today in class we did several trig equations from an accelerated math sheet.
I understood all of it and feel that i will not hav any issue ith the assigned homework as long as I don't get side tracked
Homework is lesson 4 question 1-8
We also learned of another website that my be useful the link is on our math blog

more unit circle

Today in class we signed out a text book that is full of practice questions that we can try if we feel like it.

we also further discussed the 6 trig ratios and their relationship to the unit circle.

after todays class i feel i have a better understanding of the unit circle

more unit circles and arc length formula

today in class we labled a unit circle.




6 trig ratios (functions)




sine= y/1; cosecant- 1/y


sin csc


cosine=x/1; secant= 1/x


cos sec


tangent=y/x cotangent= x/y


tan cot




arc length= central angle x radius

yesterday

Yesterday was a work period we use to catch up on work

circular functions

Initial Side is the starting point and Terminal side is the ending point.

counter clockwise rotation is positive angles and clockwise is negative.


Complimentary=90 degrees or Pi/2 radians

Supplimentary= 180 degrees or Pi radians

Goals and Sept 11th math blog

Graduate Semester Early
Graduate With Honours
Make Honour Role

Measuring Angles
Old way - Degrees New way - Radians
180 degrees = 1 Pi radian
360 degrees = 2 Pi radian
Pi=180 degrees
