Trigonometry is a PRE-REQUISITE for Precalculus - Start reviewing from the beginning of the semester.
Many students lower their grades dramatically when we get to Trigonometry. We assume you know the basic Trig concepts and when we get to chapter 6 (Ch. 5 in old edition), we cover the basic concepts in one class.
