Many times throughout a Calculus AP class trigonometric
functions are used to study continuous functions, discontinuous functions,
and inverse functions. Therefore it is important that a
student beginning their study of Calculus have an excellent grasp of all
trigonometric functions. The following pages will help you review
the basic trigonometry you should remember.
| The first activity will instruct you how to fold
a unit circle (Section 13). Knowing the radian measure on this
unit circle and the ordered pairs associated with each measure is
extremely important. Make sure you take time to memorize these
ordered pairs. |
To help you memorize the values associated with the unit circle you may want
to visit an interactive site:

| The third section will review the key trigonometric
identities (Section 15) which are often used in the integration or
anti-derivative section of the Calculus course. |

One of Leibniz's great achievements in mathematics was his
development of the binary system of arithmetic. |
