Visual Trigonometry

Explore the fundamentals of trigonometry, including the six functions: sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant, and cotangent, and their relations in right triangles.

Explore a colorful 11 by 11 visual trigonometry board that maps the six trigonometric functions along six axes, revealing interactions among sine, cosine, tangent, secant, cosecant, and cotangent.

Explore the visual trigonometry board game rules, where dots and anti-dots explode into two dots moving up and left, cancel when paired, and reveal sine x cos x values.

Visual trigonometry recap introduces trigonometric basics, the board game approach with dots and anti dot, and the sine squared plus cos squared identity, outlining three methods to prove identities.

Demonstrate the identity tan squared x plus one equals sec squared x by visual dot explosions on a tangent axis.
