Ch 43: GACE Math: Trigonometric Graphs
About This Chapter
GACE Math: Trigonometric Graphs - Chapter Summary
Go through each lesson to reinforce what you've learned about graphing methods relating to trigonometry and master this section of the GACE Math exam. The chapter will specifically detail these concepts throughout the lessons:
- Sine & cosine transformations
- Tangent function
- Trigonometric equations
- Cosecant, secant & cotangent functions
The video lessons in this chapter take a new approach to studying that creates a fresh experience while reviewing previously learned material; some of the content may even be new to you. You can use the video tags to quickly return to any video segments for reexamination after taking a quiz. There is also a chapter exam you can take after the last lesson quiz.
1. Graphing Sine and Cosine Transformations
What happens when we take the sine and cosine wave and transform them? They get bigger, smaller, faster and slower. Find out how in this lesson on sine and cosine wave transformations.
2. Graphing the Tangent Function: Amplitude, Period, Phase Shift & Vertical Shift
Take a look at how the graph of a tangent function and how we can transform it by making a few small changes to its equation. This video shows how to graph the original function and explains its transformations.
3. Graphing the Cosecant, Secant & Cotangent Functions
After watching this video lesson, you will learn what the graphs of the cosecant, secant, and cotangent trigonometric functions look like. You will also learn how to see if these graphs are shifted or transformed.
4. Using Graphs to Determine Trigonometric Identity
After watching this video lesson, you will be able to use graphs to determine whether an equation is a trigonometric identity or not. Learn what you need to look for to determine this.
5. Solving a Trigonometric Equation Graphically
How can you show someone that you have the right answer? This video lesson will show you how you can do this for a trigonometric equation. Learn what you need to watch for and how to get your answers.
