Course Sample for Our Trigonometry Homeschool Math Course
Introduction
Welcome to the second month of Trigonometry. I hope you are getting very familiar with the basics that we discussed in the first month. We are building on previous knowledge all the time.
Last week we started graphing by looking at the sine and cosine in great detail. This month we will complete our graphing with the remaining four functions as well as a study of inverse functions. Understanding the graphing of the six functions helps us to understand the inverse functions and why we need them. Their role is critical in solving trigonometric equations and more advanced topics. We will also add to our list of identities as we simplify and verify them.
Let’s get started. Don’t forget you can contact me and ask questions at any time.
Week 5 – More on Graphing and Inverse Trigonometric Functions

- Be able to recognize the reciprocal function graphs.
- Learn how to use inverse functions.
Algebra knowledge needed:
- Asymptote and mathematical notation
