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.

Trig and Other Cool Math Stuff

ten-ways-to-survive-the-math-blues
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 :)

Domain of Functions

The following link is about the Domain of the function. If you are still struggling with these concepts you may want to check them out. There are three video clips. Watch one or all if you need to:
The first talks about piecewise functions and why domain is important.
The second talks about functions expressed with radicals and fractions and the why domain is an issue for these. Please note that the presenter uses both set and interval notations. We will begin to use these in class shortly.
The third video is on how to find the domain using algebra.
