Lesson #12: Evaluating Trig Limits
Learning Target
C7.1 - I can determine the limits of trigonometric expressions (using direct substitution/special trig limits).
Notes
Your calculator must be in radians.
Handout - The Unit Circle
First year students strongly recommend that you know the information in the first quadrant of the circle.
