OBJECTIVES © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved 2 Right-Triangle Trigonometry Express the trigonometric functions using a right triangle. Evaluate trigonometric functions of angles in a right triangle. Solve right triangles. Use right-triangle trigonometry in applications. SECTION This material validates the need to be proficient with the P. I. and his various contortions.

All rights reserved EXAMPLE 2 Finding the Remaining Trigonometric Function Values from a Given Value Find the other five trigonometric function values of , given that  is an acute angle of the right triangle with sin  =. Solution Because we draw a right triangle with hypotenuse of length 5 and the side opposite  of length 2.

13 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved COMPLEMENTARY ANGLES The value of any trigonometric function of an acute angle  is equal to the cofunction of the complement of . This is true whether  is measured in degrees or in radians. If  is measured in radians, replace 90º with  in degrees

All rights reserved EXAMPLE 7 Measuring the Height of Mount Kilimanjaro A surveyor wants to measure the height of Mount Kilimanjaro by using the known height of a nearby mountain. The nearby location is at an altitude of 8720 feet, the distance between that location and Mount Kilimanjaro’s peak is miles, and the angle of elevation from the lower location is 23.75º. Use this information to find the approximate height of Mount Kilimanjaro.

26 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 7 Measuring the Height of Mount Kilimanjaro

27 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 7 Measuring the Height of Mount Kilimanjaro Solution The sum of the side length h and the location height of 8720 feet gives the approximate height of Mount Kilimanjaro. Let h be measured in miles. Use the definition of sin , for  = 23.75º.

28 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 7 Measuring the Height of Mount Kilimanjaro Solution continued 1 mile = 5280 feet Thus, the height of Mount Kilimanjaro

All rights reserved EXAMPLE 8 Finding the Width of a River To find the width of a river, a surveyor sights straight across the river from a point A on her side to a point B on the opposite side. She then walks 200 feet upstream to a point C. The angle  that the line of sight from point C to point B makes with the river bank is 58º. How wide is the river? Despite being verbose, such problems can appear on a test/FE. The problem could be presented more explicitly.. In any case, we draw a diagram..

31 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 8 Finding the Width of a River Once you set it up, make sure that the information provided agrees with what your diagram depicts.

32 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 8 Finding the Width of a River The river is about 320 feet wide at the point A. A, B, and C are the vertices of a right triangle with acute angle 58º. w is the width of the river. Solution

All rights reserved EXAMPLE 9 Finding the Rotation Angle for a Security Camera A security camera is to be installed 20 feet away from the center of a jewelry counter. The counter is 30 feet long. What angle, to the nearest degree, should the camera rotate through so that it scans the entire counter?

35 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 9 Finding the Rotation Angle for a Security Camera The counter center, the camera, and a counter end form a right triangle. Solution The angle at vertex A is where θ is the angle through which the camera rotates.

36 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 9 Finding the Rotation Angle for a Security Camera Set the camera to rotate 74º through to scan the entire counter. Solution continued

38 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved This is the “size and align” way to brutishly remove the erroneous tan(x) pieces. Notice that tan(x) together with one of the sinusoidal functions extends to the limits of 2-space. (Actually, tax(x) does this itself.) -pi/2 pi/2 -3pi/2 3pi/2 Imagine a window for every n pi / 2. You can see that tan(x) is in a real sense “infinitely discon- tinuous.”
