March 29th-April 1st Week in Preview

It's a new quarter!!! Fourth Quarter!! Last one of the year!! Let's end on a high note and make it the best yet! Our CRT tests will be mid-May so it would be a good idea to start reviewing old notes from the entire year and refreshing your mind on past material. We still have some new material to get through before we will spend class time reviewing.

Here's how this week will look...

Geometry:

Tuesday/Wednesday March 29th/30th

We have now gone through all the trig functions (sine, cosine, and tangent). The important thing now is to know when to use each one. Today we will spend the day working on a packet that mixes them together and forces you to decide whether to use sine, cosine, or tangent to solve.
HOMEWORK: Finish the Trig Practice Problem Packet

Thursday/Friday March 31st/April 1st

In preparation for using our trig functions with special right triangles (30-60-90 triangles and 45-45-90 triangles) we will spend this day reviewing/learning how to simplify rational expressions and focusing on how to rationalize the denominator.
HOMEWORK: Pg 745 #1-6, 9-12, 17-18 and Rational Expression worksheet

Algebra II:

Tuesday/Wednesday March 29th/30th

We are continuing with our Probability unit and will be working in section 6-7 of the textbook. Today's objective is to count permutations and combinations (remember with permutations order matters and with combinations order doesn't matter) then to find probability using permutations and combinations.
HOMEWORK: Pg 348 #1-17 (odd), 18, 19-29 (0dd), 30, 46-49, 56, 78

Thursday/Friday March 31st/April 1st

We will find the probability of multiple events and conditional probability meaning finding the probability of event A AND B, the probability of event A OR B. We will also use formulas and tree diagrams for conditional probability (all of this is section 9-7 in the textbook).
HOMEWORK: Pg 534 #1-13, 15-25 (odd), 31-39 (odd), Pg 656 #1-12

Let's make the first week of the quarter a GREAT start!!
