I was hoping that since this unit was completely new I wouldn't have a hard time learning it. However, I was completely wrong. I really struggled with this unit and for the first couple of days I really had no idea what I was doing.Everything was just a jumble of numbers and words to me. The stuff that really threw me off were the simplifying of functions and verifying them. I think what made it hard was the fact that I was just getting use to these identities. Sometimes I would take the long route to solve a problem and then realize that I could have used an identity to solve it and it would have been much faster. I don't know how or why I eventually was able to solve these problems, but I guess it was just practicing. Yesterday as I was doing the review the answers came to me so easily. I think it really helped that I became familiar with the identities so I could tell when this= this or these to make a one. I guess practice is really what helped me get better at simplifying.
