  1. 1.4 Trigonometry

  2. Uses of Trigonometry • Lets you find the length and measure of angles of right triangles • Sine • Cosine • Tangent

  3. Definitions •  = angle • hyp = hypotenuse (longest side) • opp = side opposite (not touching) the angle • adj = side adjacent (touching) the angle

  4. Formulas SOH CAH TOA

  5. A c 5 25° B C a Example 1 • Find side c • c = 11.8 • Find side a • a = 10.7

  6. A c 5 B C 8 Example 2 • Given 2 sides, find the angle • Find A • A = 58.0 • Find B • B = 32.0

  7. Other Rt Triangle Tools • If given 2 side, find 3rd side • Use Pythagorean Theorem • a2 + b2 = c2 • C is the hypotenuse • If given 2 angles, find 3rd angle • Sum of angles = 180 • A + B + C = 180

  8. Example 3 – Word Problem • A tree’s shadow is 3 m long and the sun is at 60° above horizontal. Find the height of the tree. • Height = 5.20 m

  9. Practice Work • You should now be able to complete • 19 #CQ6, 7, P11 – 16 • Total of 8 problems
