Trigonometry (10 lessons, $37.62)

This 73 minute trigonometry lesson focuses on the four sum and difference identities: sin (A + B ), sin (A – B), cos (A + B), and cos (A - B). We'll also look at the double angle identities: sin (2A) and cos (2A).

This lesson show you how to find:
- exact value of angles using the sum and difference identities and special angles
- write the sum and difference identities as single trig expressions
- simplify expressions using the sum and difference identities
- find the formulas for the double angle identities using the sum & difference identities

This lesson contains explanations of the concepts and 20 example questions with step by step solutions plus 5 interactive review questions with solutions.
