| Lesson 1 - review of trigonometry work | ||||
| Trigonometry independent work, students can work through the PowerPoint to review their trigonometry work. This does not need to be teacher led. | Trigonometry.ppt | |||
| Lesson 2 - solving simple trigonometric equations | ||||
Using a unit circle to determine the graph of a sine curve.
This moves on to solving simple trigonometric equations by considering the corresponding trigonometric curve. |

| Lesson 3 - thinking and exploring lesson | ||||
Students work in partners. One partner has the trigonometric curve and the region where the solutions lay, i.e. 360 to 720 degrees. The other student then asks questions about the graph determining with it is sine, cosine or tangent (make rules that mean students can not use some vocabulary to differentiate the task). The task is for the student to determine where the solutions are, i.e. between 180 and 360 degrees or between 0 and 180 degrees. |

| Lesson 4 - using Easiteach Studio | ||||
| Easiteach Studio looking at special triangles to determine exact angles. Note: the downloadable file is specific to use with Easiteach Studio |
Trigonometry Special Angles.et | |||
| Lesson 5 - investigating compound angle formulae | ||||
Students can work independently through a worksheet and then power-point or both used together to determine a formula for compound angle formulae. Use the round buttons as trigger buttons, the students will have to press these more than once to have extra explanations.![]() |
