9.  When you have an angle and a side, and you are looking for a missing side of a right triangle, you should always use sin, cos, or tan (and then PT).  Pick sin, cos, or tan based on the information given in the triangle already – match this information to SOHCAHTOA to pick the correct ratio  In some cases, you’ll know two (or three) sides of a triangle. Then, you pick which ratio to use to find the angles.

14. Suppose that the distance along the slope from the top of the bank of a river to the edge of the water is 23.6 m, and a surveyor finds that the land slopes downward at an angle of 26 o from the horizontal. Find d, the horizontal distance from the top of the bank to the river’s edge. 23.6 m 26 o d

15.  In some cases, you’ll know two (or three) sides of a triangle. Then, you pick which ratio to use to find the angles.  Find an angle from a ratio??  How do we do that???

16.  Set up the equation as you did when solving for a missing side.  When done, you can use the PT and/or the CAT to check your answers (Pythagorean Theorem) (Complementary Angles Theorem)

17.  Use inverse sin (sin -1 ), inverse cos (cos -1 ), or inverse tan (tan -1 ) to determine angles when the side lengths are already known  You can find the inverse buttons as the 2 nd function on the sin, cos, and tan buttons on your calculators

20.  Always set the problems up as if you already know θ. We won’t switch to the inverse function until the end of the problem!!  Stick to SOHCAHTOA!! It’ll always work!!

23.  Angle of elevation: the angle rising up from the horizontal  Angle of depression: the angle going down from the horizontal θ Horizontal θ

24. Federal law specifies that every new public building must be accessible by a ramp with slope 1/12 or less. What is the maximum angle of elevation for a ramp?

25. A safe angle for a fire ladder is 65 o to the ground. To the nearest foot, how long must the ladder be to reach 19 feet up the side of a building?
