Module 2 builds on students' previous work with units and with functions from Algebra I, and with trigonometric ratios and circles from high school Geometry. The heart of the module is the study of precise definitions of sine and cosine (as well as tangent and the co-functions) using transformational geometry from high school Geometry. This precision leads to a discussion of a mathematically natural unit of rotational measure, a radian, and students begin to build fluency with the values of the trigonometric functions in terms of radians. Students graph sinusoidal and other trigonometric functions, and use the graphs to help in modeling and discovering properties of trigonometric functions. The study of the properties culminates in the proof of the Pythagorean identity and other trigonometric identities.

Electronic practice that can provide teachers the ability to individualize or assign as a group. This collections of topics covers middle school standards through AP Calculus AB. Easily create a class and assign practice topics to one or all of your students. You can assign due date, late dates, as well as customize how many questions students need to work through. Students get immediate feedback on their practice and are walked through the correct solution if they get it incorrect. This website is run by a math teacher who created it because he was looking for an alternative to assigning textbook problems.

This is a task from the Illustrative Mathematics website that is one part of a complete illustration of the standard to which it is aligned. Each task has at least one solution and some commentary that addresses important asects of the task and its potential use. Here are the first few lines of the commentary for this task: Sketch graphs of $f(x) = \cos{x}$ and $g(x) = \sin{x}$. Find a translation of the plane which maps the graph of $f(x)$ to itself. Find a reflection of ...

Students are given an arbitray unit circle and then asked the following questions:

Explain why sin(−θ)=−sinθ and cos(−θ)=cosθ. Do these equations hold for any angle ÃŽÂ¸? Explain.

Explain why sin(2Ï€+θ)=sinθ and cos(2Ï€+θ)=cosθ. Do these equations hold for any angle ÃŽÂ¸? Explain.

This task can be used as a short formative assessment, and can be done individually, in pairs, or in small group.

This lesson unit is intended to help teachers assess how well students are able to: model a periodic situation, the height of a person on a Ferris wheel, using trigonometric functions; and interpret the constants a, b, c in the formula h = a + b cos ct in terms of the physical situation, where h is the height of the person above the ground and t is the elapsed time.

El módulo 2 se basa en el trabajo previo de los estudiantes con unidades y con funciones del álgebra I, y con relaciones y círculos trigonométricos de la geometría de la escuela secundaria. El corazón del módulo es el estudio de definiciones precisas de seno y coseno (así como tangente y las cofunciones) utilizando geometría transformacional de la geometría de la escuela secundaria. Esta precisión lleva a una discusión de una unidad matemáticamente natural de medida rotacional, un radian, y los estudiantes comienzan a desarrollar fluidez con los valores de las funciones trigonométricas en términos de radianes. Los estudiantes grafican funciones trigonométricas sinusoidales y otras, y usan los gráficos para ayudar a modelar y descubrir propiedades de las funciones trigonométricas. El estudio de las propiedades culmina en la prueba de la identidad pitagórica y otras identidades trigonométricas.
