Solving Right Triangles

Essential Question How do I solve a right triangle?

Vocabulary Solve a right triangle – to determine the measures of all six parts (3 angles, 3 sides).

Inverse Trig Ratios We use the inverse sine, inverse cosine, and inverse tangent if we are trying to find angle measures. The calculator buttons look like this: sin-1 cos-1 tan-1

Example 1 Find the acute angles of the triangle. Round to the nearest tenth.

Try This! Find the acute angles of the triangle. Round to the nearest tenth.

Example 2 Solve the right triangle.

Try This! Solve the right triangle.

Summarizer What is the minimum amount of information needed to solve a right triangle? 2 side lengths or… 1 side length and 1 acute angle measure
