PreCalculus/Trigonometry- Chapter 1
E-mail: jarias@summitk12.org
Tools for Your Journey-In this course you will explore a variety of functions in multiple ways and
develop concepts used in calculus and other advanced math courses. Listen carefully, work hard, and ask
lots of questions. Most of the ideas in this chapter are extensions of concepts you have already learned in
Algebra 2 and Geometry. Enjoy the journey!
Guiding Question- What math tools are needed to solve the problem? How can the graphing calculator
be used to solve the problem more efficiently?
