Study Plan
Learn the Theory
Read the textbook chapter carefully. Note down definitions, formulas and key ideas. Focus on: Angles and Radian Measure, Trigonometric Functions and Identities, Addition and Subtraction Formulas.
Practise
Solve the textbook exercises and extra practice questions. There are 52 questions available for this chapter.
Revise & Test
Revise key points without looking at your notes. Take a practice quiz and mark weak areas for another pass.
Spaced Revision

What to Focus On
- Positive angles are measured in the anticlockwise direction.
- Negative angles are measured in the clockwise direction.
- One radian is the angle subtended by an arc equal in length to the radius.
- The unit circle has a radius of 1 and is centered at the origin.
- Coordinates of a point on the unit circle are (cos θ, sin θ).
- Sine corresponds to the y-coordinate, cosine to the x-coordinate.
- Sine and cosine functions have a range of [-1, 1] and period 2π.
- Tangent function has period π and vertical asymptotes at π/2 + nπ.
- Cotangent has asymptotes at nπ.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Radians and degrees are interchangeable without conversion.
The value of sinθ or cosθ can be greater than 1 or less than -1.
The period of tanθ is 2π, just like sinθ and cosθ.
Memory Tips
