In this secondary mathematics worksheet, students solve a problem which involves how far behind a rental truck must the driver of a car be so that he can see a stoplight from behind the truck.  The problem can be solved with similar...

In this trigonometry activity, students prove that for the given conditions of the problem that cos y = cos2 x.  The one page activity contains one problem with the solution. 

Students solve problems involving graphs. In this calculus lesson, students relate harmonic motion to velocity. They discuss the derivative and the effect on the functions created.

Fifth graders explore the use of trigonometry to find unknown sides and angles in right-angled triangles, taking the concepts that were developed in the previous unit and looking at different ways of practicing the new skills. Students...

Seventh graders investigate the concept of looking at the data put in a variety of ways that could include graphs or data sets. They analyze data critically in order to formulate some sound conclusions based on real data. Students graph...

Students, after reading an explanation from a NASA Web-based textbook, demonstrate an understanding of vector addition and the text by applying them to the determination of vector components and relative velocities.

Eighth graders find connections between numbers in a table; use Pythagoras' theorem in a general algebraic form; and measure accurately from a scale drawing to find a method that might enable the helicopter to land inside a rectangular...

This math lesson presents methods of solving trigonometric equations when the answer does not seem obvious. The lesson begins by giving an example then has a few practice problems for viewers to solve with solutions as links.

Some trigonometric equations can be solved only numerically. But a great many can be solved in closed form and simple procedures. This web page shows you how to do it in five steps (or fewer)!

This site gives a definition for what a trigonometric equation is, gives a listing of the simplest trigonometric equations, and lists seven main methods of solution of trigonometric equations with examples.

Sixteen problems offer practice solving trigonometric equations. They are given with each step to the solution cleverly revealed one at a time. You can work each step of the problem then click the "View Solution" button to check each...

In this section we will discuss how to solve trig equations. The answers to the equations in this section will all be one of the "standard" angles that most students have memorized after a trig class. However, the process used here can...

n this section we will discuss solving trig equations when the answer will (generally) require the use of a calculator (i.e. they aren't one of the standard angles). Note however, the process used here is identical to that for when the...

Students learn about the concept of trigonometric equations by exploring a tutorial. They can then test their knowledge by taking a ten question assessment that increases in difficulty as they correctly answer questions.

Introduces techniques for solving trigonometric equations. Provides worked examples of solving some simpler to medium-hard equations.
