5. CCGPS Geometry 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? Standard: MCC9-12.G.SRT.6-8

6. Finding an angle. (Figuring out which ratio to use and an inverse trig button.)

7. Ex: 1 Figure out which ratio to use. Find x. Round to the nearest tenth. 20 m 40 m Tan -1 20 / 40 ) Shrink yourself down and stand where the angle is. Now, figure out which trig ratio you have and set up the problem. x

8. Ex: 2Figure out which ratio to use. Find x. Round to the nearest tenth. 15 m 50 m Sin -1 15 / 50 ) Shrink yourself down and stand where the angle is. Now, figure out which trig ratio you have and set up the problem. x

9. Ex. 3: Find . Round to the nearest degree. 9 17.2

10. Ex. 4: Find . Round to the nearest degree. 23 7

11. Ex. 5: Find . Round to the nearest degree. 400 200

12. Finding a side. (Figuring out which ratio to use and getting to use a trig button.)

13. Ex: 6Figure out which ratio to use. Find x. Round to the nearest tenth. 20 m x tan 2055 ) Shrink yourself down and stand where the angle is. Now, figure out which trig ratio you have and set up the problem.

14. Ex: 7 Find the missing side. Round to the nearest tenth. 80 ft x tan 8072 =  ( ) ) Shrink yourself down and stand where the angle is. Now, figure out which trig ratio you have and set up the problem.

15. Ex: 8 Find the missing side. Round to the nearest tenth. 283 m x Shrink yourself down and stand where the angle is. Now, figure out which trig ratio you have and set up the problem.

16. Ex: 9 Find the missing side. Round to the nearest tenth. 20 ft x

17. When we are trying to find a side we use sin, cos, or tan. When we are trying to find an angle we use ( INVERSE ) sin -1, cos -1, or tan -1.
