Vocabulary θ – greek letter theta – this symbol is used to represent angle measures. Sine – is the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle and the hypotenuse. Cosine - is the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to the angle and the hypotenuse. Tangent – is the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle and the side adjacent to the angle.
6
What do we know? The triangles are similar. The angles are congruent. 3 5 6 10
7
What do we know? The triangles are similar. The angles are congruent. 5 12 10 24
8
What do we know? The triangles are similar. The angles are congruent. 24 25 50 48
9
Why is this important? What happens if I know one angle measure for one of these triangles? (Other than the 90 ° angle?) I can find all the others in that triangle and for any similar triangle. 3 5 6 10
10
Trigonometric Functions This is why we created sine, cosine and tangent. Before we can use Sine, Cosine and Tangent we have to understand how to label our triangles. θ Opposite Hypotenuse Adjacent
11
Try these on your own Correctly label the sides θ Opposite Hypotenuse Adjacent θ Opposite Hypotenuse Adjacent
