Understanding Trigonometry
FOR LEAVING CERT MATHS (ORDINARY LEVEL)
Alongside Algebra, Trigonometry is one of the most important topics to understand in order to do well in Leaving Cert Maths.
This is because Trigonometry is a foundational topic – if you have a good understanding of it, you’ll find it easier to understand more advanced topics like calculus and geometry.
On the other hand, if you struggle with Trigonometry, you’re likely to struggle with these advanced concepts as well.
This leads to a vicious cycle where you’re constantly struggling to keep up in Maths class, leading to poor results, diminishing confidence and increasing Maths anxiety.
The solution? Make sure you have a solid foundation in the basic Maths concepts, principles and topics – like Trigonometry – and you’re on your way to Leaving Cert success.
