The owner has made it perfectly clear that h...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/rectangles-and-parabolas
Trig Patterns
In this activity, students will use the unit circle to examine patterns in the six trigonometric functions. Students will compare angles created with the x-axis in all four quadrants and discuss with one another what is happening at each coordinate as they move the point around the circle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trig-patterns-@ns
