I would like to get alot better at trig than I am. What is the best/most efficient method?

Thanks much in advance

    What sorts of trig are you trying to learn? The unit circle? Identities?2011-09-18

    In the **P.S.** of Arturo's [answer here](http://math.stackexchange.com/questions/48938/trig-identities/48941#48941) are some basic tricks one needs to know in order to learn (and avoid memorizing to many of) the trig identities (I thought there was a much more extensive version of that somewhere, but I can't seem to find it right now). The other answers there might also help.2011-09-18

    If you can ever get to learning about complex numbers and Euler's formula, I'd say that those definitely ease the task of deriving trigonometric identities from scratch.2011-09-18

    I think solving more and more problems on based on trig manipulation is the best way to master them,however it works for any other formulas.2011-09-18
