  2. Tangent S=225.6 • = • Tan(48) · 171 = 189.9 H=190” (15.8’) 48° H=189.9” (15.8’) 171” 68”

  3. Similar Triangles • = • = H=185.5” (15.5’) 68” H= 185.5” (15.5’) 48° 99” 171” 270”

  4. Sine • = • · s = 270” H=200.6” (16.7’) H=200.6” (16.7’) 48° S=180.7”

  5. Comparison • The three measurements are really close. • Similar triangles produced a more accurate result than the other two, because the similar triangles do not have as big numbers. There aren’t as many steps either. • My group preferred similar triangles because it was easier and shorter to make and solve then to do sine or Tangent. • I would recommend other groups to use similar triangles because it is not that hard to solve.
