Unit Circle Shrinky Dink Template
Create a first quadrant model of the Unit Circle. Make learning and memorizing the Unit Circle fun and engaging! Trace the template onto a clear Shrinky Dink sheet, then bake to shrink down to a hard, scaled quarter unit circle. High School students may shrink on their own at home or you can shrink!There are three pieces: The Quadrant One piece marked with the first quadrant and angles in degrees and radians, in addition to the cosine measurements from 0 to 1.The Radius piece, marked with the on

Topographical Navigation / Triangulation Worksheet Activity
This document has a teacher concepts/directions cover page, a two-page student activity (answer sheet and map with questions), and a two-page answer key including color visuals. It can be copied in black-and-white if needed and the activity will still work. The purposes of this are to have student practice their measuring, circle, and line construction skills while learning the basics of topographical features, navigating points by straight lines with bearings, navigating points by triangulation

Trigonometry
understand the relationship of the secant, cosecant and cotangent
functions to cosine, sine and tangent, and use properties and graphs of all six trigonometric functions for angles of any magnitude;
• use trigonometrical identities for the simplification and exact
evaluation of expressions and in the course of solving equations, and select an identity or identities appropriate to the context, showing familiarity in particular with the use of:
sec^2(θ) ≡ 1 + tan^2(θ) and
cosec^2θ ≡ 1 + cot^2θ ,

Accident Investigation Lab for Trig Students
A lab exercise in which students complete a simulation of investigating a vehicle accident by measuring the length of skid marks and calculating the speed of the braking vehicle. Students will measure the length using the number of revolutions and diameter of a rolling rotary device (such as sewing tracing wheel or pizza cutter.) This lab is designed for groups of 2 - 4 students and contains 5 different scenarios of the accident so different groups can analyze different situations. These mat

Design an A Frame House
A project for any student who has learned triangle trigonometry. Students design an A frame house to certain specifications and within a certain budget. Costs for various aspects of the home are given. Students must calculate floor space, framing, roofing, foundation size, etc. This project makes a good multiple day homework assignment. It is recommended that the teacher go over problems in class that relate to the specific tasks needed to complete this project.

Constructing a Unit Circle on Geometer's Sketchpad
Guided instructions to create an animated unit circle on Geometer's Sketchpad. Students will create the unit circle and the reference triangle. They will animate a point on the circle to see what happens as the arc length increases.
Can be used to create trigonometric functions on GSP.
