GCSE Maths - All the Trigonometry Equations you Need To know! #119

This video provides an overview of trigonometry, focusing on its application to triangles. It explains how to determine the lengths of missing sides, sizes of missing angles, and areas of triangles. The video emphasizes the importance of selecting the correct equation for solving triangle problems, introducing a flow diagram to aid in this process. It distinguishes between right and non-right triangles, discussing relevant equations like Pythagoras, Sokor Toa, cosine rule, and sine rule. Additionally, it covers methods for calculating triangle areas based on available measurements. The video serves as an introduction, with further detailed videos planned for each equation.
