i agree with muffincita5 :) thank you so much for the help! i get unit circles better now :D

How would I solve 3sin2x-1 in the same way in your video?

[AlRichards314]

@zacmiley12 I assume you mean 3sin2x-1 = 0

bring the 1 over: 3sin2x = 1

divide both sides by 3: sin2x = 1/3

Solve for 2x: 2x = sin^-1(1/3)

Divide by 2: x = (1/2)sin^-1(1/3)

In degrees: x = (1/2)[19.47,160.53] 180 - 19.47 = 160.53 degrees

Therefore x = 9.735, 80.265

In radians x = 0.1699, 1.4009

What a great video! Thank you so much.

you are a math god...

I understood all video, and I'm not an english native.I'm from Portugal. The video is very good, and the spoken english is easy.

can you please help me prove this

tan(x-3pi/2)=-cotx

thanks

[dillzchaitoo]

okay...to be honest! i really dont understand

[AlRichards314]

@dillzchaitoo What parts?

[titanic1224]

OMG! Thank you i have been so confused on how to do this...

[XwP1ayawX]

Thank you so much

[mylover599yes]

Awsome... So much easier to understand than my tutor. Thanks!

[eclipse245]

Man this is actually really complicated. My teacher just uses the 2 triangles. So much easier to remember.

thank you so much!

our class had to memorize the unit circle before we got into trigonometric stuff

[Westaz9]

I have learned a lot from this video. But I have a some questions that I still need help with. The question is:

Solve the following equation, giving values of θ in the interval -180 and 180 for

A. 3sin^2θ - 2cos^2θ=1

B. cosθtanθ=-1/2

C. 3+4tan2θ=5

D. 4cos^2 2θ=3

How do you do these

[blabelle2]

thanks so much for the video i did not understand this at school but you explain real well

[mrpenguypen]

Thanks man! This is really helpful.

[bigteck1]

Thank you so much...my teacher has been teaching this for about 2 weeks and by watching only this video i finally understand everything my teacher tried to teach us...Thank you so much and keep it up. I'm looking forward to watching all your videos

[AlRichards314]

Thanks for the comment. It is good to hear when someone finds my videos clear and helps them understand some math.

thank you! i can finally understand solving trig functions :) you're a very good explainer
