Need someone to tell me the topics to practise to study trigonometry

In summary, the video teaches how to become good at anything within 20 hours by mastering small skills. First, barriers are eliminated and the individual is able to focus on the skill at hand. Next, the skills are practiced relentlessly until they are mastered. Finally, the individual learns the skill as a whole. This advice can be applied to studying for exams.

I across a video about how to be good enough at anything within 20 hours.
It said that first to get rid of all barriers and the identify
The small skills which are used in the thing you're trying to "become good enough at ",in this case in solving trigonometry questions, and grind them relentlessly until each skill is mastered which will enable me to understand and correct my own mistakes and then learn the thing as whole.
So I'm trying to apply this in my study and I've so far gotten a general idea what I need to know
•ratios
•basic geometry
•properties of triangles
•solving equations
•basic application of identities and stuff
I know I have missed something vital could somebody please help with this list.

You want us to watch a 20 minute video to answer your question? Seriously? Good luck with that.

Nah i just posted that just in case somebody was interested you don't need to see the video because I gave a brief summary of what it's about

Well, I am sure that the most important topics in trig (if you want to study calc thereafter) are the basic identities (yes, you probably won't need to use sum to product formulas) and knowing the sin, cos, and tan and their reciprocals of unit circle angles. Also know a bit of inverse trig. Knowing triangle trig is helpful for trig substitution in anti-differentiation, but maybe that can be learned fairly quickly.

Identities will take some practice to get used to, but you'll get a good workout on these in calculus. You probably could learn this stuff in your time period, but I'm not sure how strong you will be in the material (anyways, this will get better over time if you use it).

Also, take this with a grain of salt, there are other far more sophisticated and educated members on the forum. And good luck!

FAQ: Need someone to tell me the topics to practise to study trigonometry

What is trigonometry?

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the study of triangles and their relationships with angles and sides.

What are the basic topics to study in trigonometry?

The basic topics to study in trigonometry include trigonometric ratios, trigonometric functions (sine, cosine, tangent), solving triangles, and trigonometric identities.

How can I practice trigonometry?

You can practice trigonometry by solving various problems and exercises that involve using trigonometric concepts and formulas. You can also use online resources or textbooks for practice questions.

What are some important formulas to remember in trigonometry?

Some important formulas in trigonometry include the Pythagorean theorem, the sine and cosine laws, and the double angle and half angle identities.

How can I improve my understanding of trigonometry?
