Trigonometry

Trigonometry forms an important part of the Mathematics Curriculum all the way to Grade 12. It is extremely important to get a proper understanding of the principles and concepts that form the foundation of the FET phase (Grade 10 to Grade 12).

The Trigonometry Course consists of video lessons of the entire Grade 10 Trigonometry syllabus and is aligned with the CAPS curriculum. The course follows a structured learning path and you will be guided through the course over the entire four weeks which will entail watching videos of each topic, completing activity worksheets and working through the solutions by comparing your answers to the worked solutions.

The video lessons are presented by expert teachers who will not only explain the concepts of each lesson, but will also give you insights of where the topic is relevant in Grade 11 and Grade 12, common errors that learners make and what to expect in the examinations. While working through the course learners can pause or replay videos to reinforce their understanding and can always access the videos at some future date if necessary.

Some of the important sections covered include:

• Definitions of Basic Trigonometric Ratios 
• Trigonometric Ratios on the Cartesian Plane from 0⁰ to 360⁰
• Simplification of Trigonometric ratios involving special angles
• Definition of Reciprocal Trigonometric ratios
• Heights and distances – two dimensional problems
• Trigonometric Functions
