Feroz's Epic Blog #4

Blog time. I'll be covering 8-5 today, just like everyone else.

Instead of doing retarded graphs, we get to go back and do those equation things from 8-1. You know, where had to get the trig function by itself and stuff.

However, unlike everyone else, I won't be posting," THINGS YOU CAN'T DO EVER DO OMG." Instead, just make sure you know not to divide by a trig function when you're solving to cancel something out, and not to cancel from the inside the trig function.

Cue the example:

2sin^2Θ-1=0

Add the one, 2sin^2Θ = 1

Divide by two, sin^2Θ = 1/2

Find the square root, sinΘ = √1/2 (neg or pos)

The inverse would equal 45.

Now, unlike 8-1, you must find the degrees of all the quadrants, not just positive or negative.

So, using those rules from 8-1, do w/e you need to get sin to each quad.

Q1 = 45

Make it negative and then add 180, Q2 = 135

Just add 180, Q3 = 225

Make it negative and add 360, Q4 = 315

These are your final answers. Hope this helped you in some way. Good luck on the test this week guys, I'm sure you'll need it. (Especially you, David)
