<p>Why must you torture me? Verifying trig identities = *** is going on</p>
<p>man it's real late to be doing math homework, i feel your pain</p>
<p>ha im not to fond of it either were graphing sin and cos with all that phase shift and stuff</p>
<p>wait until you get to calc. Oh, fun with integrals, evaluating, writing, rewriting and solving from there, substitution by parts, logarythmic differentiation, riemann sums, derivatives...
Have I forgotten anything?</p>
<p>optimization, trig substitution, sequences/series, taylor/mclaurin, polar/parametric coordinates, etc.</p>
<p>Don't worry Calc isn't that tough, it's just learning and applying a few formulae... At least with one varible, multivarible is HARD though!</p>
<p>^variable.</p>
<p>How much harder is Precalculus than Algebra 2? I'm in Algebra 2 and I'm failing.. majorly. I wouldn't be happy to know that math only gets worse from here.</p>
<p>well if your failing algebra 2 you won't do much better in precal</p>
<p>That's comforting.<br>
I swear, I get easy A's in every class including the 1 AP class I am taking, but I just can't get Honors Algebra 2.</p>
<p>that's weird!</p>
<p>I hate pre-calc so much...I hate math...and this is my last year of it~ </p>
<p>For....High School... ;-; I want math to go away!</p>
<p>If you are failing Alg.2 don't take precalc next year. Going from Alg2 to precalc is a BIG leap.</p>
<p>^ No it's not? Precalc is the next sequential step after algebra 2, what else would you take?</p>
<p>I remember trying to wrap my head around the unit circle concept. That took me a pretty long time to master lol.</p>
<p>Geometry in a lot of schools around here is between Pre-Calc/trig and Algebra 2.</p>
<p>So far, and tomorrow this is going to change, but so far my Precalc class has been a review of what we learned in Alg 2. I did, however, drop down a track this year, so that might have something to do with it...</p>
<p>I went up a level this year (the first person to do that, it's not supposed to be allowed for this level). The class has been pretty easy. Well, excluding the first week when the teacher was trying to fail me out. I just missed almost a week of class for an E.C. and figured out what was going on in a couple of minutes when I got back.</p>
<p>Ironically, that was my best unit in precalculus...I can try to help you if you PM me.</p>
<p>Try to think of them as a puzzle. You have to flip things around, multiply top and bottom by stuff, add then subtract constants, etc.</p>
<p>precalc does not necessarily follow alg.2 sequentially. Many many students at our school take stats, trig, or discrete math instead of precalc because they realize that they wouldn't be able to handle precalc.</p>
