Chapter 5 Test - Trigonometric Functions January 2008

This document appears to be a trigonometry test containing multiple choice and full solution questions about trigonometric functions and their properties. It includes [1] questions about trig function periods, quadrants, and co-terminal angles, [2] solving trig functions using special triangles and exact values, [3] graphing trig functions after various transformations including amplitude, period, phase and vertical shifts, and [4] applying trig functions to model a real world scenario about a fox population over time. The test is divided into parts on knowledge & understanding, full solutions, applications, communication, and thinking skills.
