Sec. 6.2 Right Triangle Trigonometry
3
6 Trig functions Sine Cosine Tangent Cosecant Secant Cotangent
Sin θ = opp/hyp Cosine Cos θ = adj/hyp Tangent Tan θ = opp/adj Cosecant Csc θ = hyp/opp Secant Sec θ = hyp/adj Cotangent Cot θ = adj/opp
4
Ex. Find the value of the 6 trig functions
4 θ 3
5
b) 13 θ 12
7
Ex. 4 p.468 Let θ be an acute angle such that sin θ = .6
Find values of Cos θ Tanθ Using trig identities
8
Ex. 5 p.469 Tan θ = 3 Find Cot θ Sec θ
9
Applications Solving right triangles Like ex. 7 p. 470
Surveyor 50 ft. from the base of a tree measures the angle of elevation to be 71.5°. How tall is the tree?
10
Ex. 8 p 470 A person is 200 yds. from a river. The person walks 400 yds. along a straight path to the rivers edge. Find the angle between this path and the rivers edge
