pre calc review guide - basic trig



this is a bit early but some people like to get ready in advance.

The first trig test will be 13 questions, though there are multiple parts to some questions.  It is 80% identical to the pre test.  How about those apples??

1 converting degrees and radian
1 naming coterminal angles
1 naming reference angles
1 where you're given 1 trig function ratio and are asked to find another
3 using right triangle trig or pythag or triangle sum to find missing info
4 finding the exact value of trig value at an angle (ex.  sine 60 dgs = )
1 solving a basic trig equation ( sin x = 1/2)
1 trig application involving angle of depression/ elevation (think planes landing)
2 involving the Pythagorean Identities
2  proving a mathematical truth using trig identities (prove: (tan x) (cos x) =  sin x
1 trig application on using a 2 variable equation (think a bouncy spring)

Here are some problems in the book

p. 261 #25, 26, 51, 53
p. 270 # 9-15 odds, 23, 27, 33, 74, 75
p. 280 #7, 59-65 odds, 67, 69, 78
p. 289 #15, 23, 24, 27, 47-49, 67, 68
