Calculator Usage Examples Determine the value of each of the following using a calculator (Round off your answer to twp decimal places). A)sin73° B)2sin20 ° + 3cos10 ° C)tan(21 ° + 36 ° )
4
continued Solutions A)sin73° =0,9563048 ≈ 0,96 C)tan(21 ° + 36 °) = tan 57° = 1,539865 ≈ 1,54 B)2sin20 °+ 3cos10 ° = 0,6840403 + 2,9544233 = 3,6384638 ≈ 3,64

Calculator usage To determine the angle if the ratio is given, is made possible on a calculator if you press the shift key or second function key, then the trigonometric function key. The keys sin-1,cos-1and tan-1 is used to show the inverse function.
6
Solve trigonometric equations To solve for θ in the following problem if θ is an acute angle. Tanθ = Key in the following on your calculator. 11.9; = ; shift ; tan-1; ans or = Therefore θ = 18,1°
7
Trigonometric Equations Examples 1)Solve for θ (Round off your answer to ONE decimal place) (θ is acute) a)sin θ = 0,823 b)2cos θ = 1,264 c)cos2 θ = 0,943 d)tan(θ - 25°) = 0,465 e)sin2 θ = 0,326 2
8
Solutions a) sin θ = 0,823 θ = 55,4 ° b)2cos θ = 1,264 cos θ = 0,632 θ = 50,8 ° c)cos2 θ = 0,943 2θ = 19,438371 ° θ = 9,711855° θ = 9,7°
