Funções trigonométricas e movimento harmônico simples: uma proposta de sequência didática

Abstract

This work aims to propose an interdisciplinary approach to the study of trigonometric functions, associating them with the study of simple harmonic motion (SHM) through the development of a didactic sequence for high school education. The purpose of this proposal is to relate mathematical knowledge to physical phenomena, more specifically periodic motions, thus promoting broader and more meaningful learning for students. In this regard, a didactic sequence was developed starting from an investigative perspective, from which new knowledge is built, aiming to consolidate learning throughout the entire process. The methodology suggested for implementing the didactic sequence consists of observations, an investigative questionnaire, activities, and a final assessment.
