Six Trigonometric Ratios 3 Basic Ratios + 3 Reciprocal Ratios What is a reciprocal?
5
Six Trigonometric Ratios, cont. Basic Trig. Ratio Sine Cosine Tangent Reciprocal Trig. Ratio Cosecant Secant Cotangent It’s a sin to have two c’s.

10
Trigonometric Functions, cont. 3 Reciprocal Functions Cosecant – Reciprocal of Sine Secant – Reciprocal of Cosine Cotangent – Reciprocal of Tangent Remember, “It’s a sin to have two C’s”
11
Cosecant – Reciprocal of Sine 2425 7 (“It’s a sin to have two C’s.”)
12
Secant – Reciprocal of Cosine 2425 7
13
Cotangent – Reciprocal of Tangent 2425 7
14
Solving for Side Lengths If given one side and one angle measure, then we can solve for any other side of the triangle. 8 x
15
Solving Right Triangles, cont. 1. Ask yourself what types of sides do you have: opposite, adjacent, and/or hypotenuse? 2. Pick the appropriate trig function to solve for x. 3. Solve for x. 8 x
16
Solving for Side Lengths, cont. 8 x
17
Solving Side Lengths, cont. 7 x
18
Inverse Trigonometric Functions We can “undo” trig ratios Gives us the angle measurement (theta) Represented by a small –1 in the upper right hand corner Ex. 2 nd button → trig ratio
19
Inverse Trigonometric Functions, cont.
20
Experiment: Take the sin –1 (0.75) and the csc (0.75). What do you get? **** sin –1 ≠ csc Ѳ !!!!! ****
21
Your Turn: Solve for theta Round to nearest hundredth
22
Solving For Angle Measures If given two sides of a triangle, then we can solve for any of the angles of the triangle. 54
23
Solving for Angle Measures, cont. 1. Ask yourself what types of sides do you have: opposite, adjacent, and/or hypotenuse? 2. Pick the appropriate trig function to solve for 3. Solve for using the inverse trigonometric function 54
24
Solving for Angle Measures, cont. 54
