Q
Method of finding solutions in a quadratic inequality
A
- Bring everything to one side

Q
Two ways to find exact values of sin / cos
A
Method 1: right-angled triangle and use pythagoras to find remaining side. Then SOHCAHTOA to find new exact value (similar to unit circle)
Method 2: input the sin / cos value into the sin^2x + cos^2x = 1 and solve
