Puzzle project provides challenging fun for trig students

Students in Amy Charasika’s Essentials of Precalculus class are currently studying the unit circle and learning the value of special angles. In addition to regular worksheet assignments, Ms. Charasika recently presented students with a trigonometry puzzle as a fun way to get students to put what they’ve been learning into practice.

To complete the puzzle, students worked together to assemble sixteen puzzle pieces into a square that matches trigonometric angles to their corresponding value. According to Ms. Charasika, the project was a fun and challenging way to engage the students.
