Are you expected to know all of the trig formulas for the math gre subject test? I don't mean the easy ones, i mean ones such as the sum-to-product or product-to-sum.
thanks!
thanks!
The most commonly used trigonometric formulas in the math GRE subject test include sine, cosine, and tangent ratios for right triangles, as well as the Pythagorean theorem and the sum and difference formulas for sine and cosine.
While it is important to have a solid understanding of the basic trigonometric formulas, it is not necessary to memorize all of them for the math GRE subject test. The test will provide you with a reference sheet with the most commonly used formulas.
One helpful tip is to create flashcards or practice problems to help you memorize the formulas. Additionally, understanding the underlying concepts and connections between different trigonometric formulas can make it easier to remember them.
One common mistake is using the wrong formula for a given problem. Make sure to carefully read the question and identify which trigonometric formula is needed. Additionally, be careful when plugging in values to avoid calculation errors.
Yes, you are allowed to use a calculator on the math GRE subject test. However, it is important to note that calculators are not always allowed on every problem. Be sure to check the instructions for each problem to see if a calculator is allowed or not.
