Sec. 6.2 Right Triangle Trigonometry

2

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

6

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

11 Ex. A 12 meter flagpole cast a 9 meter shadow. Find θ the angle of elevation of the sun.

12 EX. 9 p. 471 Specifications for a loading dock ramp require a rise of 1ft For each 3 ft of horizontal length. Find sides b and c and find the measure of θ. c 4 θ b
