Graphs of Sine and Cosine 1.2 An applet illustrating how the graphs of sine and cosine are related to the unit circle. Transformations of Functions 1.3 An applet illustrating how transformations ...
Cosine and sine of an angle θ are defined to be the x and y-coordinates of the point P on the unit circle with the property that the line from O to P makes and angle θ with the positve x-axis. cos(θ) ...
In support of efforts to foreground functions as central objects of study in algebra, this study provides evidence of how secondary students use trigonometric functions in contextual tasks. The author ...
Many students think they've solved a trig equation when they get one answer (one size of angle \(x^\circ\)). However there's often more than one answer expected so be aware of this. Let's remind ...
Trigonometry is the branch of math that studies triangles, with a particular focus on the relationships between angles and the lengths of corresponding sides. Interestingly enough, the trigonometric ...
