Monday's Nutshell

The first two links are notes with sample problems similar to what we did in class today.
Reference Angles  Trig functions & Exact Values

These two videos are about the same thing. The presenter doesn't show the pattern we talked about in class to make memorization easier but he does give agood explanation of why it works. You will need to watch both videos: Exact Trig Values 1  Trig functions & Exact Values 2

We will have our first trig test on Thursday. You will be recreating the unit circle from scratch. You will need to be able to do today's material for Thursday's test. Also the requiz on logs and exponentials will on Friday.

In a nutshell #1

I just found these two links and love them. If you were out on Tuesday check them out.
Angle measurement

Radian Measure

Practice 1  & Practice 2 If you are absent and can't get the worksheet from today. Do these and I'll count it. This is not an option to those present in class today.

If you're struggling with precal (and sooner or later we all struggle with math) check out this guys advice--it's good stuff.

Many of you are going on field trips over the next few weeks and it's so important that you are able to keep up with what we're doing in class. I'm posting on the right side of the blog "Nifty Trig Stuff". Most of them are interactive tutorials.

If you prefer videos to reading, check out the "Precal tutorials" under math videos--scroll and select trig.
Enjoy :)
