Description: Angles as stated are an important part of calculations in Physics. For example knowing the angle that a ball was thrown at will help determine the height and distance of its travel. This and MANY more situations are important calculations in physics. In this lesson you will learn about the angles aspect of trigonometry. This is a VERY important lesson make sure you are comfortable with what you learn in this lesson. Task: Watch the Trigonometry video at: Take Notes (they will be checked on the first day so make sure you have them) Answer the Trigonometry questions at: Section 10: Algebra Description: AP Physics 1 is defined as algebra based math class. That would suggest (and rightly so) that you will be doing A LOT of algebra. You MUST be able to do algebra without difficulty. If you struggle in algebra and are not prepared to take the time to truly master it AP Physics is not the place for you. In this lesson I will return to the basics of algebra; solving for an unknown. Task: Watch the Algebra video at: Take Notes (they will be checked on the first day so make sure you have them) Answer the Algebra questions at: Section 11: Expressions Description: Expression is the term used for when solving for something with letters instead of numbers. When determining the expression you are responsible for rearranging the letters to obtain the end equation in which you could plug numbers in and solve for it. For example if I was to ask for the expression of what t equals you would rearrange it to obtain. This lesson is almost algebra step 2, since it is missing the simplification step that numbers alow.
