  1. Right Angled Trigonometry

  2. Labeling a Right Triangle • In trigonometry, we give each side a name according to its position in relation to any given angle in the triangle: Hypotenuse, Opposite, Adjacent • The _________ is always the longest side of the triangle. hypotenuse Hypotenuse Adjacent • The _________ side is the leg directly across from the angle. opposite  Opposite • The _________ side is the leg alongside the angle. adjacent

  3. Trigonometric Ratios We define the 3 trigonometric ratios in terms of fractions of sides of right angled triangles.  Hypotenuse (HYP) Adjacent (ADJ) Opposite (OPP)

  4. SohCahToa Sine equals Opposite over Hypotenuse Cosine equals Adjacent over Hypotenuse Tangent equals Opposite over Adjacent

  5. Practice Together: a 32 x Given each triangle, write the ratio that could be used to find x by connecting the angle and sides given. b x 65

  6. YOU DO: d c x Given the triangle, write all the ratios that could be used to find x by connecting the angle and sides given. 56

  7. In a right triangle, if we are given another angle and a side we can find: • The third angle of the right triangle: • How? • The other sides of the right triangle: • How? Using the ‘angle sum of a triangle is 180’ Using the trigonometric ratios

  8. Steps to finding the missing sides of a right triangle using trigonometric ratios: • Redraw the figure and mark on it HYP, OPP, ADJ relative to the given angle 9.6 cm HYP x ADJ 61 OPP

  9. Steps to finding the missing sides of a right triangle using trigonometric ratios: • For the given angle choose the correct trigonometric ratio which can be used to set up an equation • Set up the equation 9.6 cm HYP x ADJ 61 OPP

  10. Steps to finding the missing sides of a right triangle using trigonometric ratios: • Solve the equation to find the unknown. 9.6 cm HYP x ADJ 61 OPP

  11. Practice Together: x m Find, to 2 decimal places, the unknown length in the triangle. 7.8 m 41
