Do Now Use ∆ABC for Exercises 1–3. 1. If a = 8 and b = 5, find c. 2. If a = 60 and c = 61, find b. 3. If b = 6 and c = 10, find sin B. 11 0.6

Objective TSW use trigonometric ratios to find angle measures in right triangles and to solve real-world problems.

San Francisco, California, is famous for its steep streets San Francisco, California, is famous for its steep streets. The steepness of a road is often expressed as a percent grade. Filbert Street, the steepest street in San Francisco, has a 31.5% grade. This means the road rises 31.5 ft over a horizontal distance of 100 ft, which is equivalent to a 17.5° angle. You can use trigonometric ratios to change a percent grade to an angle measure.

Example 1: Identifying Angles from Trigonometric Ratios Use the trigonometric ratio to determine which angle of the triangle is A.

Example 2 Use the given trigonometric ratio to determine which angle of the triangle is A.

Example 3 Use the given trigonometric ratio to determine which angle of the triangle is A. tan A = 1.875

In Lesson 8-2, you learned that sin 30° = 0. 5 In Lesson 8-2, you learned that sin 30° = 0.5. Conversely, if you know that the sine of an acute angle is 0.5, you can conclude that the angle measures 30°. This is written as sin-1(0.5) = 30°.

If you know the sine, cosine, or tangent of an acute angle measure, you can use the inverse trigonometric functions to find the measure of the angle.

Example 4: Calculating Angle Measures from Trigonometric Ratios Use your calculator to find each angle measure to the nearest degree. A. cos-1(0.87) B. sin-1(0.85) C. tan-1(0.71)

Example 5 Use your calculator to find each angle measure to the nearest degree. a. tan-1(0.75) b. cos-1(0.05) c. sin-1(0.67)

Using given measures to find the unknown angle measures or side lengths of a triangle is known as solving a triangle. To solve a right triangle, you need to know two side lengths or one side length and an acute angle measure.

Example 6: Solving Right Triangles Find the unknown measures. Round lengths to the nearest hundredth and angle measures to the nearest degree. Method 1: By the Pythagorean Theorem,

Example 7 Find the unknown measures. Round lengths to the nearest hundredth and angle measures to the nearest degree.

Example 8: Travel Application A highway sign warns that a section of road ahead has a 7% grade. To the nearest degree, what angle does the road make with a horizontal line?

Example 9 Baldwin St. in Dunedin, New Zealand, is the steepest street in the world. It has a grade of 38%. To the nearest degree, what angle does Baldwin St. make with a horizontal line?

Example 10: Solving a Right Triangle in the Coordinate Plane The coordinates of the vertices of ∆PQR are P(–3, 3), Q(2, 3), and R(–3, –4). Find the side lengths to the nearest hundredth and the angle measures to the nearest degree.

Example 11 The coordinates of the vertices of ∆RST are R(–3, 5), S(4, 5), and T(4, –2). Find the side lengths to the nearest hundredth and the angle measures to the nearest degree.

Lesson Quiz: Part I Use your calculator to find each angle measure to the nearest degree. 1. cos-1 (0.97) 2. tan-1 (2) 3. sin-1 (0.59) 14° 63° 36°

Lesson Quiz: Part III 6. The coordinates of the vertices of ∆MNP are M (–3, –2), N(–3, 5), and P(6, 5). Find the side lengths to the nearest hundredth and the angle measures to the nearest degree. MN = 7; NP = 9; MP  11.40; mN = 90°; mM  52°; mP  38°

Step 1 Find the side lengths. Plot points P, Q, and R. Example 4 Continued Step 1 Find the side lengths. Plot points P, Q, and R. PR = 7 PQ = 5 Y By the Distance Formula, P Q X R
