mesmart12345: What should i know from precalculus for physics in high school?
I’m gonna be taking physics next year in high school, but i haven’t taken precalculus yet. I’ve heard that you should know certain things from precalculus to do well in physics. What should I know? Can you please provide links to websites or names of books.
Also where can i find a free online physics course or a free physics textbook online?

I’m not sure about websites or books (Besides the AP Physics Problem book), but From what my short attention span allows me to remember, it’s good to get the Sine, Cosine, Tangent, Co-secant, Secant, and Cotangent formula’s memorized.
I’d have to suggest using Google and Wikipedia if you want to get them memorized before the school year starts, but I’m sure someone will come along with a link that’ll actually help.
I’ll edit this post if i remember something else i used in both classes
Edit: I actually took Physics and Precalculus in the same year. I passed with a B, but that’s because my teacher was foreign.
Answer by HiiiiiI took physics in high school with out taking precal first.
Physics isn’t hard. Well, it wasn’t for me. (Now chemistry is another story). You’ll learn everything in the class anyway. If not then that’s what the teacher is for.
