Students will learn to solve problems involving the six trigonometric functions of sine, cosine, tangent, cotangent, secant and cosecant. They will understand how to evaluate these functions using both degrees and radians, and how to solve problems both with and without a calculator. The unit will cover naming and locating angles on the unit circle, evaluating trig functions based on the unit circle, determining properties of trig functions such as periodicity and parity, and graphing trig functions based on transformations.
