This Properties of Trigonometric Functions lesson plan also includes:
Given a value of one trigonometric function, it is easy to determine others. Learners use the periodicity of trigonometric functions to develop properties. After studying the graphs of sine, cosine, and tangent, the lesson connects them to the values for these functions found on the unit circle. Finally, they use these relationships to develop properties of the functions.
