Life of Fred: Trigonometry Expanded Edition

Elk Mountain Learning center is your home for new and used Life of Fred: Trigonometry Expanded Edition curriculum. It is available in hardcover. 

Life of Fred: Trigonometry Expanded Edition:

Trigonometry: Expanded Edition is the fourth book in the Life of Fred High School Mathematics Series, and is designed for students in 12th grade who have already finished the preceding Beginning Algebra, Expanded Edition, Advanced Algebra, Expanded Edition, and Geometry books. This new edition of Trigonometry replaces the both the earlier Life of Fred Trigonometry and Fred’s Home Companion Trigonometry books; it also contains all problems completely worked out.

Ten and a half chapters with multiple sub-lessons (94 total) are included; each chapter also has a “Looking Back” half-chapter that reviews previously-taught math students will need. Half-chapters are optional for students who have mastered algebra, and segregated so that students don’t unnecessarily waste time reviewing content, or so that they can easily identify problem areas. Each lesson ends with a “Your Turn to Play” segment with a small number of thought-provoking questions. Answers are provided on the next page for students to go over themselves after attempting to solve the problems. Chapters conclude with three problem sets, each of which is named after a city. This full-year curriculum will provide students with a thorough knowledge of Trigonometry that will prepare students for college-level math, while fifteen final chapters specifically prepare students for calculus. The book concludes with an ART (All Reorganized Together) section that provides a convenient summarization for test review.

Trigonometry covers: Angles of elevation, Definition of the sine function, Angles of depression, Heron’s formula, Review of graphing and significant digits, Discrete and continuous variables as illustrated in The Merchant of Venice, Tangent function, Why we create new mathematics, Ordinal and cardinal numbers, Cosine function, Graphing y = sin x, Identity function, Contrapositives, and lots more.
