Holes and Goals:TrigonometryKatherine Bartz
Course GoalsExplore the history of trigonometry. (When it was first discovered)Solve applications of the trigonometric function in real world problems.Use trigonometric identities to simplify trigonometric functions.Construct the unit circle
Essential QuestionsWhat are the trigonometric functions and their applications in other subjects in math and the real world?When in the history of math was trigonometry developed/discovered?How are the trigonometric functions and identities used to solve trigonometric problems?
Enduring UnderstandingCalculation and reasoning mathematical and non mathematical ideas is important for math and life.Important for students to be able totranslate mathematical formulas and solutions to real-life applications.
Product #1: Trigonometry Review Test
Product # 2: History of Trigonometry Timeline
Product # 3: Unit Circle Diagram
Product #4: Resource Wiki

ReflectionsThis project has made me Realize that how much trigonometry I had forgotten because I have not used it recentlySee how complex of a subject the trigonometry is There are a lot more applications of trigonometry that I need to explore and apply.
