In this math unit, students begin by learning the fundamental skills of converting angles between degrees and radians using the unit circle. They start with basic conversions, practicing both from degrees to radians and vice versa. As they progress, students further explore these conversions with a wide range of specific angles, enhancing their fluency and comprehension of angular measurements in both units. Midway through the unit, the focus shifts towards applying this knowledge to calculate the trigonometric values sine and cosine for angles defined in both radians and degrees. Students practice identifying the coordinates of points on the unit circle based on these angles. This includes exercises that provide angles in radians and degrees, for which they have to determine the cosine and sine coordinates. Towards the unit's conclusion, learners refine their understanding of mapping these angles and trigonometric coordinates visually and numerically on the unit circle. This involves more complex problem sets where they are required to interpret trigonometric functions and their corresponding coordinates or visualize angles based on provided coordinates, solidifying their comprehension of trigonometry’s relationship with the unit circle.Skills you will learn include:
