Circles and Trigonomtry
infoWhy this? The equation of a circle brings together algebra, geometry and locus ideas through centres, radii, tangents and intersections. Trigonometric identities and equations enable students to simplify expressions and solve periodic problems exactly rather than numerically. Trigonometric ratios link angles and lengths and are fundamental for geometry, navigation and periodic modelling.
scheduleWhy now? It follows graphs so students can immediately use line equations when working with tangents and points of contact. Trigonometry appears after substantial algebra practice, so rearranging and factoring trigonometric expressions is manageable. further applications of trigonometry consolidates prior trigonometry and prepares students for Year 13 work on radians and trigonometric functions.
