Contact Sobjoy for a working version of the Trigonometer. Schools can get a free copy for appraisal. Sobjoy specialises in creating interactive pictorial resources to help explain things. Sobjoy's simulations can be applied in education (for example teaching numeracy to FE students) and in commercial areas (for instance showing how a proposed device might work before it is possible to place it with users).

If you have a requirement that might be addressed by the use of precision computer-based animations, please contact Sobjoy.

  Trigonometry can be a bit daunting, but here's a little toy for students to play with. And learning through play can now be applied to tangents, sines and cosines. As well as a working protractor and an easily-read measuring rule, there's an unlimited supply of randomly-generated samples at the touch of a button.

Students can see how to use the protractor, move it quickly to any corner of the triangle, read off the values, or bring up sample triangles and work out (or measure) the indicated angles or the lengths of the sides. There's a wealth of information, and just to explore the features of Sobjoy's Trigonometer is to learn a lot about the important subject matter.

The Trigonometer can be purchased for personal use. See Sobjoy's Ebay shop. Schools and colleges can get a free version for appraisal, and a licenced copy for unlimited use in the school. Contact Sobjoy for details.
