Example 22
The improper placement of speakers for a home theater system may
result in a diminished sound quality at the primary viewing area.
This phenomenon occurs because sound waves interact with each other
in a process called interference. When two sound waves undergo
interference, they combine to form a resultant sound wave that has
an amplitude equal to the sum of the component sound wave amplitudes.
If the amplitude of the resultant wave is larger than the component
wave amplitudes, we say the component waves experienced constructive interference.
If the amplitude of the resultant wave is smaller than the component wave amplitudes,
we say the component waves experienced destructive interference.
a) Two sound waves are represented with f() and g().
i) Draw the graph of y = f() + g() and determine the resultant wave function.
ii) Is this constructive or destructive interference?
iii) Will the new sound be louder or quieter than the
original sound?

Trigonometry Lesson One: Degrees and Radians

Note: For illustrative purposes,


all diagram angles will be in degrees.

Example 1:
a) The rotation angle
between the initial
arm and the terminal
arm is called the
standard position
angle.

b) An angle is positive
if we rotate the
terminal arm counterclockwise, and negative
if rotated clockwise.

c) The angle formed


between the terminal
arm and the x-axis is
called the reference
angle.

d) If the terminal arm


is rotated by a multiple
of 360 in either direction,
it will return to its original
position. These angles are
called co-terminal angles.

e) A principal
angle is an angle
that exists
between 0and
360.

Lesson Three: The Binomial Theorem
Example 1:
a) The eighth row of Pascal's Triangle is: 1, 7, 21, 35, 35, 21, 7, 1.
b) See Video. Note that rows and term positions use a zero-based index.
c) There is symmetry in each row. For example, the second position of
the sixth row is equal to the second-last position of the same row.
Example 2:
a) 8C0; 12C10
b) 21C2 = 210
c) k = 3 and 8, so the fourth and ninth positions have a value of 165.
d) 1024
Example 3:
a) 20
b) 120
c) 66
d) 54
Example 4:
a) The binomial theorem states that a binomial power of
the form (x + y)n can be expanded into a series of terms
with the form nCkxn-kyk, where n is the exponent of
the binomial (and also the zero-based row of Pascal's Triangle),
