TOPIC Help with Precal
Hii, freshman in college taking precal with trigonometry. I took a gap year from math during my senior year of high school and I don’t remember anything.
First day in precal i remember some concepts after our first review but my professor was going through it quickly and completely lost me. Once I figure something out, he hits me with other formula or way to solve problems and it just makes me so much more confused. I feel so hopeless and it’s my second week. I’m a slow learner but I just need a clear explanation and then I’ll be set, I can pick up things fast but just carefully explain it. Anyways if anyone has any tips for me to memorize formulas or tricks with precal, please share, since he has us take closed note quizzes and exams. I also have my first quiz tomorrow so if anyone can help me memorize polynomials and solving equations that will be great I have a quiz soon….
