Trig Modeling and Pendulum Motion
In this activity, students:-- decompose the motion of a swinging pendulum into horizontal and vertical components-- use right triangle trig to construct pairs of theoretical equations describing the motion of a pendulum with given characteristics (string length, drop angle, etc.)-- use the regression features of desmos.com to compare their theoretical equations to observed data-- use regression analysis to discover which characteristics of a pendulum determine its period (spoiler alert: period i

Radian Lab --> Unit Circle
Students use circular objects and string to derive the circumference formula and therefore define what a "radian" is. Students finish by finding a formula for conversion between radians and degrees and complete the Unit Circle in radians.
