A little about me: I'm about the biggest Indie fan there is, I almost exclusively watch (John Hughes>>) 80s movies or the upcoming Star Wars series, and I read sci-fi in my spare time. I tutor for the sake of those aha moments, and have taken Multivariable Calc, Linear Algebra, Real Analysis, and Complex Analysis. Who knows what I'll tutor next, hope to see you soon.

Trig Review
Today we're going to learn the trigonometric ratios (SOHCAHTOA), reciprocal ratios, and build some intuition around them (it would be helpful to know about Similarity beforehand). We'll find the lengths of missing sides of right triangles, learn about complementary angles, and do some other practice.
1h 30m

Trig Review
Hey guys, today we'll learn what radians are and how to convert between them and degrees. Then we'll go over the Unit Circle, trig identities/values that we can derived from the unit circle, and then we'll practice computing trig values.

Trig Review
Hey guys, today we're going to be plotting the values of trigonometric functions that we derived using the unit circle onto a graph; then we'll play around with inverse functions and make the trigonometric functions invertible (For background knowledge on making functions invertible, go to https://www.khanacademy.org/math/precalculus/x9e81a4f98389efdf:composite/x9e81a4f98389efdf:invertible/a/intro-to-invertible-functions). We'll also determine the domain and range of these inverse functions and see their graphs as well.
