292- Rethinking the Trigonometric Functions through Technology

Friday, October 31, 2014: 3:30 PM-4:30 PM
Grand Ballroom 4 (Westin) (Westin)
Lead Speaker:
Chris Bolognese


Many beautiful ideas in trigonometry emerge from the unit circle. We will use dynamic geometry software to generate trigonometric graphs. Then we will exploit similar technology to investigate generalized graphs and the behavior of a unit square and other polygons. In these new systems, how does our trigonometric system change and stay the same?
