We will be beginning our series of Trigonometry units after Thanksgiving Break. This sequence will continue into the next semester.
The first unit will consist of an introduction into the world of "Unit Circle Trig" and will bridge the gap between the Right Triangle Trig Unit learned in Acc Math 2 and the formal Trigonometry that we will be using the remainder of the year.
The Standards for the first Trigonometry Units are:
MA3A2. Students will use the circle to define the trigonometric functions.
a. Define and understand angles measured in degrees and radians, including but not limited to 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°, their multiples, and equivalences
b. Understand and apply the six trigonometric functions as functions of general angles in standard position.
c. Find values of trigonometric functions using points on the terminal sides of angles in the standard position.
d. Understand and apply the six trigonometric functions as functions of arc length on the unit circle.
e. Find values of trigonometric functions using the unit circle.
