g1234 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I've seen it said here that even Foerster himself recommends doing trig as part of precalc. Then again, it looks like trig is part of Alg. 2 often enough. If you did Foerster's Alg .2, did you do the final three chapters--trig--in the same year? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrogMom5 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 We used Foerster for Alg.2 and no, we did not do the trig. chapters. Trig. was in pre-calc. (Derek Owens). HTH Denise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiana Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Are you planning on using Foerster for PreCal? If so, does that text have trig in it? Listening..... It has trig in it. It has a more modern and expanded treatment of trigonometry than the algebra and trigonometry textbook, which is why Foerster recommends it. Here's the TOC: http://math.kendallhunt.com/documents/ALookInside/Precalculus/FPC2_TOC.pdf -- trigonometry is treated in chapters 2-6.
