  1. PRECALCULUS 2/20/14 OBJECTIVE: Find areas of oblique triangles and use the Law of Sines to model and solve real-world problems. HW: Answer Practice Test. Due tomorrow. Answer 6.1 odds 35-47. Due Monday. Test 3 is on Monday. ACTIVITIES: Do Now: Copy in your math notebook. Recall: Area = ½ (base)(height) or or C A b a b c h h A C B B c a

  2. Find the area of the triangle having the given measurements. Round to the nearest square unit. C = 1150 , a = 5 yards, b = 7 yards 7 square yards C) 32 square yards 16 square yards D) 63 square yards Solution: Area = ½ a b sin C = ½ (5)(7) sin 1150 = 15.86  16 yards

  3. A guy wire to a tower makes a 670 angle with level ground. At a point 33 feet farther from the tower than the wire but on the same side as the base of the wire, the angle of elevation to the top of the tower is 380 . Find the length of the wire to the nearest foot. A) 42 feet B) 47 feet C) 84 feet D) 89 feet Solution: 290 x 670 380 1130 Answer: The length of the wire is 42 feet. 33
