Learning about tangents doesn't have to be a slippery slope. Pupils drag a point around a unit circle to see how angle affects the slope of a line. They individually answer a set of challenge questions to come to the conclusion that...

Drawing triangles is easy, even if you have to calculate the exact length of its sides. Scholars use the Law of Cosines to find missing sides of triangles. An interactive helps them check their answers.

An identity that thieves can't steal  the tangent identity. Scholars manipulate ratios to investigate the tangent ratio and connect it to the sine and cosine ratios. An interactive that uses color coding helps with this task.

The more you know, the more you can learn. Scholars apply the double angle and half angle formulas to determine trig values based on known values. They use an interactive that provides sine and cosine values to aid calculations.

Slide the resource into your lesson plans. Young mathematicians use a slider to move a movie screen to the right position for optimal viewing. Along the way, they learn to apply the half angle formulas.

Don't lose your marbles. Scholars use an interactive to create a triangle that closes off a portion of a sidewalk with loose marbles. The Law of Sines helps them find the side measures of such a triangle.
