Page 2: Advanced Trigonometric Rules

This page delves into the sine and cosine rules for solving non-right triangles, along with applications in finding areas and arc lengths.

Definition: The sine rule states that a/sin A = b/sin B = c/sin C for any triangle

Example: Area of a triangle can be calculated using the formula Area = ½ab sin C

Highlight: The cosine rule a2=b2+c22bccosAa² = b² + c² - 2bc cos A is used when you know three sides SSSSSS or two sides and the included angle SASSAS

Vocabulary: Radian measure is an alternative to degrees, where 2π radians equals 360°

Page 3: Compound Angle Formulas

This page covers compound angle formulas and their applications in solving trigonometric equations.

Definition: sinA+BA+B = sin A cos B + cos A sin B is a fundamental compound angle formula

Example: Double angle formulas like sin 2θ = 2sin θ cos θ are derived from compound angle formulas

Highlight: Factor formulas help simplify expressions involving sums and differences of trigonometric functions

Vocabulary: Double angle formulas are special cases of compound angle formulas where both angles are equal

Page 4: Advanced Applications

This page focuses on advanced applications including r cosθ±αθ±α and r sinθ±αθ±α expressions and small angle approximations.

Definition: Small angle approximations are useful simplifications when θ is close to zero: sin θ ≈ θ, cos θ ≈ 1 - θ²/2

Example: Converting √3sin θ - cos θ to r sinθαθ-α form requires using compound angle formulas

Highlight: Maximum and minimum values of trigonometric expressions can be found using these transformations

Vocabulary: The amplitude rr represents the maximum displacement from the midline of a trigonometric function

Page 1: Basic Trigonometry Foundations

This page introduces fundamental trigonometric concepts and special angle values. The content covers basic trigonometric ratios, graphs, and identities.

Definition: The Pythagorean identity states that sin²θ + cos²θ = 1 for any angle θ.

Example: For a 45° angle, sin 45° = cos 45° = 1/√2, and tan 45° = 1

Highlight: The reciprocal trigonometric functions are derived from the basic ratios: secθ = 1/cosθ, cosecθ = 1/sinθ, and cotθ = 1/tanθ

Vocabulary: Special angles refer to commonly used angles 30°,45°,60°30°, 45°, 60° with exact trigonometric values

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Samantha Klich

Android user

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

Anna

Best app on earth! no words because it’s too good

Thomas R

Just amazing. Let's me revise 10x better, this app is a quick 10/10. I highly recommend it to anyone. I can watch and search for notes. I can save them in the subject folder. I can revise it any time when I come back. If you haven't tried this app, you're really missing out.

This app has made me feel so much more confident in my exam prep, not only through boosting my own self confidence through the features that allow you to connect with others and feel less alone, but also through the way the app itself is centred around making you feel better. It is easy to navigate, fun to use, and helpful to anyone struggling in absolutely any way.

David K

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

In school I was really bad at maths but thanks to the app, I am doing better now. I am so grateful that you made the app.

very reliable app to help and grow your ideas of Maths, English and other related topics in your works. please use this app if your struggling in areas, this app is key for that. wish I'd of done a review before. and it's also free so don't worry about that.

I know a lot of apps use fake accounts to boost their reviews but this app deserves it all. Originally I was getting 4 in my English exams and this time I got a grade 7. I didn’t even know about this app three days until the exam and it has helped A LOT. Please actually trust me and use it as I’m sure you too will see developments.

THE QUIZES AND FLASHCARDS ARE SO USEFUL AND I LOVE THE SCHOOLGPT. IT ALSO IS LITREALLY LIKE CHATGPT BUT SMARTER!! HELPED ME WITH MY MASCARA PROBLEMS TOO!! AS WELL AS MY REAL SUBJECTS ! DUHHH 😍😁😲🤑💗✨🎀😮

Elisha

This apps acc the goat. I find revision so boring but this app makes it so easy to organize it all and then you can ask the freeeee ai to test yourself so good and you can easily upload your own stuff. highly recommend as someone taking mocks now
