Proving Trigonometric Identities


Math Grade 11 Curriculum Map

Description

Students find that in some circumstances, they can start with a false statement and logically arrive at a true statement; so, students should avoid beginning a proof with the statement to be proven. Instead, they should work on transforming one side of the equation into the other using only results that are known to be true. In this lesson, students prove several simple identities.
