Wednesday HW = Quiz Grade!

Tonight, please complete the 5 problems provided in class (all multiple choice). This will count as a quiz grade!

Also, remember your take home test is due tomorrow! 

• There will be no additional homework tomorrow
• Remember, the take home test is review for our final! Work hard on it and you're doing some studying!

Here are some hints to help you boost your grade (by question #):

1. Isolate the cotangent (add, divide, square root); remember that the square root can be positive or negative
2. Move the tangent terms to one side of the equation, then divide to isolate tangent (this question is just like today's stamp problem)
3. Isolate the cosine (add, divide)
4. Substitute for the "cotangent squared" piece using your Pythagorean identities; then, factor (like you would for a quadratic) to solve.\
5. Substitute for the "secant squared' piece using your Pythagorean identities; then, move all terms to one side (set the equation equal to 0). This will "cancel out" the "1's" on both sides, so you're left with a "tangent squared" and a "tangent" term. Factor out a tangent from each, then solve.

And just in case you lost yours...
