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

Overview

This week we hope to:

Become familiar with graphing the tangent function.
Be able to recognize the reciprocal function graphs.
Learn how to use inverse functions.

Algebra knowledge needed:

Asymptote and mathematical notation
Idea of inverse function
Interval notation

More About Our Trigonometry Homeschool Math Course

This semester-long Trigonometry homeschool math course is a thorough study of trigonometry that may be completed in several ways. High school students who are pursuing a math-intensive degree may wish to take this trigonometry course in the eighteen weeks as it is laid out and follow it with another semester-long math course, such as Introduction to Statistics. Homeschool teens who are pursuing a less math-intensive field may want to spread this course out over more than eighteen weeks, as it is a meaty trigonometry course with ample practice problems and assignments.

Transcript Information for Our Trigonometry Homeschool Math Course

This is a one-semester Trigonometry homeschool math course, worth 0.5 academic credit upon successful completion of all assignments. Combining this Trigonometry homeschool math course with the one-semester statistics course, a student may earn a full year of high school math credit.
