“Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end.”

Hey everyone! I hope you’re having an amazing end of the school year! I absolutely miss doing Precalc with you all each day! Being a dad is amazing—I think I’m starting to figure this stuff out; however, it’s been a tough time for me to be out, especially with all the attention on our school. I also wish I could be there for all the fun end-of-year activities and all the nostalgia; seniors--enjoy every second! No matter how your high school experience has been these are the last days you’ll walk the halls of EHHS--take a moment to soak it all in and appreciate how much you've grown over the past four years! End your career on a positive note--ace your exams, stay positive (and focused), and get super excited about the next chapter of your life! Oh, and I hope prom was amazing!

I know you're working with some tough stuff in math--don't quit! Keep working hard! Stay focused for this last week of class, prepare yourself for your exam, and put forth your best effort!

Everyone--please feel free to email or Remind me if you need anything or have any questions!

Oh, and here are some pics of Lincoln Michael Carofano!

NO HOMEWORK!

I'll send out a Remind! later letting you know this, but no direct homework tonight! Anything you saw on the test that was confusing you should try out tonight, or ask me for examples. We'll be finishing up the Tests tomorrow and then start on the review. Let me know (send a remind!) for extra problems or if you need help.

PREP FOR TEST!

Hey y'all! Here are some problems (extra examples) for you to try out tonight. If you have any questions, send me a REMIND! also feel free to send a REMIND! to ask me for the answers.

Tuesday HW!

Since we didn't get through the whole sheet in class today that will be your homework. Finish as much as you can, but I need to see at least some work done for 1-4 (AT THE BARE MINIMUM).

Tomorrow, you will get a Key and you will grade yourself and correct mistakes on your own paper. I will label on the Key what I'm doing (procedure-wise) so you can all follow it.

The test will not be moved back any further! We will start review for the final on Friday so Thursday is the last possible day we can have this test.

Here is the worksheet from class:

Weekend HW!

Hey y'all!

Homework over the weekend is a couple of problems off of the grudgeball slides. They will be posted below, if you have any questions along the long weekend feel free to Remind! me (it will say that the message didn't send because its "outside office hours" but don't worry I'm still getting the messages.)

Thursday HW!

If you're not doing your homework every night (even though I haven't been checking it) then you are preparing yourself to fail this test. Tonight's homework is:

pg 364
#

• 14-16 all
• 22,23,24, 28

Let me know if you have any questions over remind!

The test is going to be next week (most likely wednesday), tomorrow we will be playing more grudgeball for review.

REMEMBER!! We are always solving for the unknown variable in an equation. In these trig equations that unknown variable is an angle every time. (so that will be your answer)

If you're interested in more examples/problems to prepare, send me a Remind! and ill send over some more examples.

Wednesday HW!

Homework is from the book tonight, and one additional problem.

Pg. 364

• # 15, 16
• # 29, 30
• sec(2x) + tan(2x) = 1

When solving tan and cot problems convert to simpler trig functions (tan = sin/cos) and determine if the numerator or denominator (of the side length) is larger, this will tell you whether sin or cos (whats in your numerator/denominator) is larger. If sin is larger then you have pi/3 (the larger angle), if sin is smaller then you have pi/6 (the smaller angle).
