Lessons that teach this standard

• Graphing Sine and Cosine: Amplitude, Period and Midline

  How unrolling the unit circle produces a wave, what amplitude, period, midline and phase shift each control, and how to fit a sine model to a repeating situation.

• Graphing Tangent and the Reciprocal Trig Functions

  Graph y = tan x with its period π and vertical asymptotes, and the reciprocal functions secant, cosecant and cotangent built from sine and cosine.

• Graphs of Exponential and Logarithmic Functions

  Graph y = bˣ and y = log_b x: growth and decay, asymptotes, domain and range, the mirror image in y = x, and shifts and stretches of both.
