    Solving a system of equations (substitution)

    • Step 1: Solve one of the equations for one of the variables

    • Step 2: Substitute what the variable equals in the solved equation into the other equation

    • Step 3: Solve the second equation (which should now only have one variable)

    • Step 4: Plug in the solution from step 3 to one of the original equations to solve for the other variable

    Trigonometry (Introduction)

    • In a right triangle, the ratios of sides in relation to an angle are described using trigonometric ratios

    • The ratios are sine, cosine, and tangent

    • Sine = opposite side divided by hypotenuse

    • Cosine = adjacent side divided by hypotentuse

    • Tangent = Opposite side divided by adjacent side
