This is 4 versions of a quiz I gave students at the beginning of precalculus after reviewing the first week of school. This helped me identify weak areas that I would need to review throughout the year. This would be helpful for a trigonometry class or as an end of the year activity for Algebra 2.

Students will use Desmos (or any other graphing utility) to explore why the graphs of the functions tangent, cotangent, cosecant, and secant look and behave the way that they do.

This quiz will require students to use the Chain Rule (sometimes multiple times), along with the product and quotient rules. Students must also know the derivatives of the six trig functions.
