Study Strategy

1. To memorize the Trigonometric identities, I just did lots of Trigonometric identities problems (the exercises sheet). Hoped that I would remember the identities if I used it a lot.

    Advantages:
  • Practicing and remembering at the same time.
  • Knowing different kinds of problem.
    Disadvantages:
  • Taking more times to try to solve the problems while looking back and forth at the identities.
  • Head-aching.
--> Not recommended.


2. To memorize the Log and Exponents identities, I wrote down them on a piece of paper over and over again, until i didn't need to look back at the identities to remember.

    Advantages:
  • Remember better (at least to me).
  • Can ask other people to check for you. 
     Disadvantages:
  • Time and paper consuming. 
--> Better than the first strategy.
