Trigonometry Review Game
Do not use a calculator on any of these questions until specified otherwise.
Sin(45) = ? (1 min)
Answer: Sin(45) = sqrt(2)/2
cos(45) = ? (15 secs)
Answer cos(45) = sqrt(2)/2 Sin(45) = cos(45) since they are cofunctions.
cos(60) = ? (1 min)
answer cos(60) = 1/2
tan(60) = ? (1 min)
answer tan(60) = sqrt(3)
tan(90) = ? (1 min)
answer tan(90) = undefined
sin(0) = ? (1 min)
answer sin(0) = 0
Find the exact value: sin cos 60 =
answer sin cos 60 = 5/4
csc 2 (30) = ?
answer csc 2 (30) = 4
Describe the co function theorem and give an example.
Answer: Answers will vary. Anything to the likes of “If two angles are cofunctions, then the trig function of one angle will equal the cofunction of its complement. Ex: sin30 = cos60” would do.
Ok, now you can use a calculator.
Cot(64.8) = ?
answer Cot(64.8) =.4706
Find the cofunction for the following. Keep your answer in degrees and minutes. Csc(63 o 14’) = ?
answer Find the cofunction for the following. Keep your answer in degrees and minutes. Csc(63 o 14’) = sec(26 o 46’)
81 o 9’ – 43 o 47’ = ?
answer 81 o 9’ – 43 o 47’ = 37 o 22’
Find x Csc(x) =
answer X = 36.7 o
The rest of the test are right triangle problems.
