Solving Trig Equations (General Solution and [0,2pi))

In this video we go through 6 different type of trigonometric equation examples showing you how to solve using the unit circle. We discuss how to write a general solution as well as how to write the solution from [0,2pi). We discuss examples involving multiple angles as well as problems involving factoring.

everyone seems to understand how the teacher explains things while I fall behind but your videos help me so much

I'm for sure going to purchase the unit circle shirt, I need TO MEMORIZE IT!

Hey man, I really appreciate you making these videos, these have really helped me out. Compared to other channels, your videos are much easier to understand

Thank you so much for this video! I've been struggling with solving a Trig Equation for days and my coursework's explanation was...not very clear. This video was very simple and helpful though, and now I think I know how to solve it. Thank you so much!

Thank you much for the help. I have a quiz on this material tomorrow and this video eased my worries!

[issyibby]

It's because of you that I'm not failing!!

Thank you so much! Your videos are awesome! Can you do a video on open intervals?

[shanebarnes]

Your videos are so helpful! Thank you!

Your unit circle picture looks nice, yet I can't help but think "but 30 degrees isn't half of 45 degrees so they shouldn't be so evenly spaced" 😅 I totally get that it makes the picture easier to view though, so the sacrifice in accuracy may be worthwhile.

16:43 I like pointing out that tangent can be viewed as slope and so you could get the 3pi/4 answer by understanding a slope of -1 would be the perfect diagonal in the 2nd and 4th quadrants.

Thinking of tangent as slope has the advantage of making things faster but of course is ohe more thing to remember so it has that downside I guess.

How do I know when to subtract/add from pi/2pi ?

Excellent presentation on trigonometry! 🎉😊

Do you have any advice on how to stay on top of math? My problem is as I advance, I tend to forget the earlier stuff.
