DescriptionThis is a course on Trigonometry. This courses covers roughly the first half of what is typically taught in a college level course on Trigonometry, hence the name, Trigonometry 1. It includes tons of videos, as well as a few assignments with solutions. This course starts from the very beginning and it assumes you know some basic algebra, although very little algebra is actually used throughout the course. There are a few instances where some algebra does come up, but those instances are explained carefully in the videos. This course is intended for beginners.
One of the most difficult parts of trigonometry is computing the trigonometric function values, and so this course places extra emphasis on that topic. Several examples of computing trig function values are given and I explain different ways to compute them.
Here are some suggestions for how to use this course.
Watch the videos at your own pace. As you watch the videos, take notes and try to work through the examples Ido by yourself.
Work through the assignments if you want to, although this really not a requirement.
Have fun, and remember trigonometry is super useful for learning further math.
I hope this course helps someone. Remember to try to have fun and work at your own pace.
Good luck:)
