1. What does it actually mean to verify a trig identity?
Verifying an identity means to make whatever you have equal to one of the identities we are given such as the reciprocal identities or the pythagorean identities. We also use the unit circle to help us too.
2. What tips and tricks have you found helpful?
When Mrs.Kirch suggested making those flashcards, that helped me most because without them, i wouldn't have memorized the identities we are supposed to.
3.Explain your thought process and steps you take in verifying a trig identity. Do not use a specific example, but speak in general terms of what you would do no matter what they give you. You have to see if the problem that is given to you can match up to one of the identities. You use them along the problems to either simplify them, or make them smaller.
