We worked on some upcoming material in the class with periodic functions.
Drew an angle on the unit circle and found the tangent of that angle. You draw the angle and a right triangle then find the ratio using SOHCAHTOA.
Graphed a parabola and looked at the focus and directrix. Also talked about some of the practical purposes of the shape of the parabola. If you forget the equations for these, you can google them if you know what to call them.
Did a problem with a hyperbola. And saw how the sign in front of the variables affects the orientation of the shape.
Looked at a little physics as well. For sound and light with higher wavelengths, the wavelength is shorter.
