Algebra 2 - Lesson 5.5 - Solving Exponential Equations Algebraically
Same base, set the exponents equal—students solve exponential equations from simple to complex, then take the algebra directly into real-world half-life and growth contexts. This lesson teaches students to solve exponential equations algebraically using the like-bases property: if b^x = b^y, then x = y. Eight worked examples build in deliberate sequence—from direct like bases through rewriting both sides to a common base, isolating the exponential before setting exponents equal, distributing exp

Algebra 2 - Lesson 7.1 - Angles, Radians & Terminal Angles
Degrees to radians. Negative angles. Coterminal angles. Reference angles. Students build the entire foundational vocabulary of angle measure and put those skills to work sketching terminal sides, identifying quadrants, and reducing any angle to its benchmark form. This lesson establishes the conceptual and procedural groundwork students need before the unit circle and trigonometric functions. The notes walk through radian measure from scratch, establish the degree-radian relationship, and build

Algebra 2 - Lesson 7.6 - Real-World Applications of the Unit Circle
Given the angle, what does the value mean? Three real-world contexts. One consistent process. Students apply unit circle concepts to Ferris wheel motion, radar sweep, and drone navigation — reading a trig modeling problem, choosing the correct function with justification, and interpreting every result back in context. This lesson teaches students to read a trig modeling problem systematically before they ever calculate. A four-step unpack process — predict, identify, decide, interpret — runs thr

Algebra 2 - Lesson 7.5 - Solving Trigonometric Equations
Given the value, find the angle. All three functions. Algebraic setup included. Students apply the unit circle in reverse — using a four-step solve process to find all solutions in [0, 2π) for sin θ = k, cos θ = k, and tan θ = k, then extend that process to equations requiring isolation first. This lesson flips the direction of unit circle work. Where earlier lessons gave students an angle and asked for a trig value, this lesson gives the value and asks for all angles where it occurs — making ex

Algebra 2 - Lesson 7.3 – The 30° & 60° Families (π/6 & π/3)
Two triangles. Eight angles. Students derive exact sine, cosine, and tangent values for both the 30° and 60° families from the 30-60-90 triangle and extend them across all four quadrants — then distinguish between the two families before the most common mix-up has a chance to take hold. This lesson builds the π/6 and π/3 families using the same four-step reasoning process introduced in Lesson 7.2, giving students a consistent structure to work from while managing two distinct sets of values in t

Algebra 2 - Lesson 7.2 - The Unit Circle & the 45° Family (π/4)
Coordinates to trig values. The 45-45-90 triangle. Sign rules by quadrant. Students derive exact sine, cosine, and tangent values at 45° from scratch and extend them across all four quadrants using a consistent four-step reasoning process. This lesson builds the first complete angle family on the unit circle. The notes open by defining sine, cosine, and tangent directly from unit circle coordinates — no SOH-CAH-TOA, just x, y, and r — then use the 45-45-90 triangle to derive the exact values at

ASTC. All three families. The complete unit circle from memory. Students consolidate everything from Lessons 7.1–7.3 into a single fluency system — predicting signs before calculating, completing the full unit circle without a reference, and identifying patterns across all twelve benchmark angles. This lesson brings the three angle families together under one organizing framework. The notes open with ASTC — derived from first principles using the signs of x and y by quadrant — then move directly

From rectangular arrays to real algebraic applications—introduce students to matrices with structure, clarity, and confidence. This lesson builds matrix fluency from the ground up. Students move through five essential skill areas—identifying dimensions and elements, adding and subtracting matrices, scalar multiplication, and solving for variables using equal matrices—using guided fill-in notes that walk them through vocabulary and worked examples before asking them to try problems on their own.

Product. Quotient. Power. Students build fluency with all three logarithm properties and apply them to expand and condense expressions — individually first, then in combination. This lesson introduces each property in isolation before raising the complexity. The notes open with clear definitions of expand and condense and a quick reminder that all three properties apply to log, ln, and log_b equally. Sections A, B, and C introduce the product, quotient, and power properties individually with pai
