Week 4 – Math 10

This week was a little bit different than the other weeks. We completed our test and started our new unit in trigonometry. I am doing pretty well and feeling good with my confidence. When my teacher is explaining the latest concepts, it is pretty easy for me to understand them, at least easier than exponents. I feel that when I am not in a rush to get it done and take my time with my work, I can usually get it done. Even though I’m slow with it now, my goal is to get a little bit better at it every day, leading up to the unit test in a couple of weeks. I think my strengths in this unit are labelling all the sides of a triangle, and using my calculator to find the “sin”, cosine and tangent. I think I need to work on finding the nearest tenth on an indicated side of an individual triangle. But, like with everything, I will only get better with practice. SOH COH TOA is something that has helped me a lot also.
