MAFS.912.F-TF.3.9Archived Standard

Prove the addition and subtraction, half-angle, and double-angle formulas for sine, cosine, and tangent and use these formulas to solve problems.
General Information
Subject Area: Mathematics
Grade: 912
Domain-Subdomain: Functions: Trigonometric Functions
Cluster: Level 3: Strategic Thinking & Complex Reasoning
Cluster: Prove and apply trigonometric identities. (Algebra 2 - Additional Cluster) -

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.

Lesson Plan

Introduction to Trigonometry:

The video is a brief introduction to or review of trigonometry. The teacher uses a spray bottle to show the difference between opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse according to the angle in which the bottle is located. Then she touches upon sine, cosine, and tangent. She uses theatrics to introduce the saying "soh-cah-toa" as an acronym for each of the sine, cosine, and tangent.
