Right Triangle Trigonometry Three Basic Trig Ratios: sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse cos θ = adjacent/hypotenuse tan θ = opposite/adjacent Adjacent Side Hypotenuse Opposite side
Find the sine, cosine and tangent of angle A. Round your answers to the nearest ten thousandth. A 9 cm 4.5 cm 10.1 cm sin A = cos A = tan A = 4.5 / 10.1 ≈ / 10.1 ≈ / 9 ≈
Use a calculator to find the value of each trigonometric ratio to the nearest ten thousandth. Make sure your calculator is in degree mode. 1. sin 45° ≈ 2. cos 47° ≈ 3. tan 48° ≈
Use a calculator to find the measure of each angle to the nearest degree. *Remember to use the 2 nd button prior to typing the trig button. 1. sin A = tan A = cos B = sin A = tan C = cos B = A ≈ 49° 2. A ≈ 67° 3. B ≈ 46° 4. A ≈ 41° 5. C ≈ 63° 6. B ≈ 89°
Solve the triangle for all sides and angles. Round the sides to the nearest tenth and angles to nearest degree. A B C a = 30 b = 20 A = a = B = b = C = c = Mark what you are given ° c = To find c, use Pythagorean Theorem: = c Next find A: tan A = 30/20 56° 34° Last find B: 180° – 90° – 56° =
Solve the triangle for all sides and angles. Round the sides to the nearest tenth and angles to nearest degree. A B C a = b = A = a = B = b = C = c = Mark what you are given 53° 90°50 c = 50 Find B: 180° – 90° – 53° = Next find a: sin 53° = a / 50 Last find b: cos 53° = b / 50 53° 37°
Solve the triangle for all sides and angles. Round the sides to the nearest tenth and angles to nearest degree. A B C a = 15 b = A = a = B = b = C = c = Mark what you are given 56°15 90° c = Find B: 180° – 90° – 56° = Next find b: tan 56° = 15 / b so, b = 15 / tan 56° Last find c: sin 56° = 15 / c so c = 15 / sin 56° 56° 34°
