UNIT QUESTION: What patterns can I find in right triangles? GSE Geometry Day 28 (2-14-17) UNIT QUESTION: What patterns can I find in right triangles? Standard: MCC9-12.G.SRT.6-8 Today’s Question: How do we use trig ratios to find the missing sides and angles of a triangle?
Finding a missing angle Finding a missing angle. (Figuring out which ratio to use and an inverse trig button.)
Ex: 1. Figure out which ratio to use. Find x Ex: 1 Figure out which ratio to use. Find x. Round to the nearest tenth. O 20 m 40 m A x Shrink yourself down and stand where the angle is. Identify the given sides as H, O, or A. What trig ratio is this?
Ex: 2. Figure out which ratio to use. Find x Ex: 2 Figure out which ratio to use. Find x. Round to the nearest tenth. O H 15 m 50 m x Shrink yourself down and stand where the angle is. Identify the given sides as H, O, or A. What trig ratio is this?
Ex. 3: Find . Round to the nearest degree. 17.2 9 A
Ex. 4: Find . Round to the nearest degree. 7 23 H
Ex. 5: Find . Round to the nearest degree. 200 O 400 H
