For example, a student working on trigonometry cannot effectively understand cotangents or complex trig inequalities until he/she is comfortable manipulating the sin, cos and tangent functions. I approach ACT test prep with a similar notion: in order to succeed the student must understand how the test wants you to err and have a...
