6.  Handout #2-10  Homework #11-18

7. Trig Part 3

8.  To find an angle, you need 2 sides of the triangle  Look at the sides and determine which trig function you should use  If it doesn’t have the hypotenuse, use tangent  If it has the hypotenuse, sin or cos depending on which angle you need  Set up the proportion. Use the INVERSE operation to find the angle

9.  Draw and label right triangle ABC where B is the right angle, AB=21 and BC=9  Find the measure of angle A  What information do you have?  What trig function should you use?

10.  Draw and label triangle QRS where R is the right angle, QS=42 and RS=40.  What is the measure of angle Q?

11.  Try problems #1-4

12.  To find the missing side, you need to identify which side is needed  What other information you have  What trig function to use  Set up a proportion and cross multiply

13.  Draw and label triangle ABC where B is the right angle, angle A = 48º, AB=28, AC=x  What information do we need?  What trig function would be best?

14.  Try problems #1-4

16.  When you find the reciprocal of a number, you flip the fraction over.  For example, the number 1/3 would become 3/1 or 4/5 would become 5/4

17.  We know the definition of the 3 main trig functions  Sine = Opp/Hyp  Cos= Adj/Hyp  Tan= Opp/Adj  What would be the reciprocal of each of these?

18.  Cosecant = Hyp/Opp  Secant = Hyp/Adj  Cotangent = Adj/Opp

19.  Sine  COSECANT (CSC)  Cosine  SECANT (SEC)  Cotangent  COTANGENT (COT)

20.  Cosecant θ= (1/Sin θ)  Secant θ = (1/Cos θ)  Cot θ = (1/tan θ)
