These struggles can include how to enter fractional values into a calculator (e.g.,&nbsp;\ud835\udf0b\/8) and how to use the degree mode instead of radians&nbsp;<strong>[2:00]<\/strong>. You can be explicit here with instruction so that students can more easily focus on understanding the mathematics rather than how to use a calculator.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Early in the episode, Mary and Claire consider the idea that to find sin(\ud835\udf0b\/8), they can find sin(\ud835\udf0b\/4) and divide by 2&nbsp;<strong>[1:08]<\/strong>. Your students might have similar ideas. Use the Supporting Dialogue prompt below to elicit their ideas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There are different ways to interpret the result of using a calculator to find the output of the sine function, and students might struggle to make sense of this. Take the equation sin(\ud835\udf0b\/8) = 0.3826834324 as an example. This tells us that the height at&nbsp;\ud835\udf0b\/8 radians is approximately 0.38 radii. In other words, the output is in terms of the radius of the circle. When the radius is 1 (as with the unit circle) then the output is exact. Students might be confused when they measure the height using a ruler or some other device and get a height that is not the same as the function output. If this happens, remind students that the sine function returns values relative to the radius of the circle. This challenge doesn\u2019t appear in the video, but it is one to look out for.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/div><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Focus Questions <input type='hidden' bg_collapse_expand='69e1a24b7d6387051414629' value='69e1a24b7d6387051414629'><input type='hidden' id='bg-show-more-text-69e1a24b7d6387051414629' value=' '><input type='hidden' id='bg-show-less-text-69e1a24b7d6387051414629' value=' '><button id='bg-showmore-action-69e1a24b7d6387051414629' class='bg-showmore-plg-button bg-blue-button bg-arrow '   style=\" color:white;\"> <\/button><div id='bg-showmore-hidden-69e1a24b7d6387051414629' ><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For use in a classroom, pause the video and ask this question:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[Pause the video at 5:15]<\/strong>&nbsp;Before watching the rest of the episode, state in your own words why it doesn\u2019t work to divide sin(\ud835\udf0b\/8) by 2 to get sin(\ud835\udf0b\/4).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/div><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Supporting Dialogue <input type='hidden' bg_collapse_expand='69e1a24b7d6cf4030331437' value='69e1a24b7d6cf4030331437'><input type='hidden' id='bg-show-more-text-69e1a24b7d6cf4030331437' value=' '><input type='hidden' id='bg-show-less-text-69e1a24b7d6cf4030331437' value=' '><button id='bg-showmore-action-69e1a24b7d6cf4030331437' class='bg-showmore-plg-button bg-blue-button bg-arrow '   style=\" color:white;\"> <\/button><div id='bg-showmore-hidden-69e1a24b7d6cf4030331437' ><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[Pause the video at 1:08]<\/strong>&nbsp;Claire and Mary are going to explore whether or not sin(\ud835\udf0b\/8) = [sin(\ud835\udf0b\/4)]\/2.
