Review of the Introduction to Non-Right Triangle Trigonometry by ECSDM

Grade Levels

Commencement, 11th Grade


Description

In this lesson, students play a SMART Board Jeopardy game to review: quadrants, degree and radian measure, evaluating trig expressions, and finding the angle measure given the trig function of the angle.

Objectives

The students will be able to:

  • name the quadrant which contains the terminal side of an angle.
  • convert radian measure to degree measure.
  • convert degree measure to radian measure.
  • express the trigonometric function of an angle as the function of a positive acute angle.
  • evaluate a trigonometric function of an angle.
  • find the measure of an angle given the value of its trig function.

    • Duration

    1 class period ( approximately 45 minutes)

    Materials

  • SMART Board
  • Jeopardy game, (Jeopardy game is in a PowerPoint format and maybe used without the SMART Board)
  • Textbook - Unified Mathematics Book 3 - McDougal Littell
  • Practice homework problems
  • Hyperlink to additional practice questions
  • Jeopardy Game

    • Procedure

    This SMART Board lesson is a Jeopardy game devised to review the following trig topics:

    • Name the quadrant which contains the terminal side of an angle.
    • Convert radian measure to degree measure and the converse.
    • Express as the function of a positive acute angle.
    • Evaluate a trigonometric function of an angle
    • Find the measure of an angle given the value of one of its trig functions
    Depending on the size of the class, divide the students into teams of 3 to 5. To encourage maximum participation, apply the following guidelines:

    • Assign team names. i.e. Team A, Team B, ...
    • Randomly select the first team to choose a question.
    • All teams are to work on the problem and the team leader will raise his or her hand when the team has agreed on an answer and its justification.
    • Only award points to teams with the correct answer and justification.
    • The first team to arrive at the correct answer and justification picks the next question the class will attempt.
      • At the end of the class period, the winning team or teams should be given a prize. This can be a sticker, pencil, candy or a pass for a "free no homework day".
    • Homework - McDouagal Littell, page 306-307 Chapter 7 Test, 1 to 14.
    • As a follow up for homework or during the next lesson, have all teams who had difficulty with a specific category work with online with on the Jefferson Math project website student tutorials.

    Assessment

    The students will be assessed by teacher informally through out the class on:

    1. Student explanations of answers with his group.
    2. Student participation in classroom discussions on questions.

    Students will be formally assessed by:

    1. Student homework.
    2. Student performance on game.
    3. Student performance on unit test.

    Rubric:
    ARC (used by SED to create Regents rubrics)

  • 1 point for accuracy of answer
  • 1 point for reasoning/representation of process
  • 1 point for communication
