This week we reviewed verifying, trigonometric equations and the trig identities. Verifying is when you try and get one side of a trig equation to look exactly like the other. To do this you work with one side only and use trig identities to make it the same. It is always best to start with the more complicated side of the equation. We also looked at solving trigonometric equations such as sinx=0.5. The easiest way to solve these types of equations is by making everything into sine's and cosine's. We also reviewed the Pythagorean, double angle, and other trig identities. Here is an example of a trigonometric equation.
