8-4 Trigonometry, day 2
You used the Pythagorean Theorem to find missing
lengths in right triangles.
• Find trigonometric ratios using right
triangles.
• Use trigonometric ratios to find angle
measures in right triangles.
You can use a calculator to find the measure of an
angle which is the inverse of the trigonometric ratio
(sine, cosine, or tangent of an acute angle).

Inverse Trigonometric Ratios
The expression 𝑠𝑖𝑛−1 𝑥 is read the inverse
sine of x and is interpreted as the angle with
sine x.
Use the thought:
If the tan 30°≈.058, then tan−1 0.58 ≈ 30°
Use a calculator to find the
measure of P to the
nearest tenth.
The measures given are those of the
leg adjacent to P and the
hypotenuse, so write the equation
using the cosine ratio.
KEYSTROKES: 2nd [COS] ( 13 ÷ 19 )
Answer:
ENTER
46.82644889
So, the measure of P is approximately 46.8°.
Use a calculator to find the measure of D to the
nearest tenth.
A. 44.1°
B. 48.3°
C. 55.4°
D. 57.2°
Solve the right triangle. Round
side measures to the nearest
hundredth and angle measures
to the nearest degree.
Step 1
Find mA by using a tangent ratio.
Definition of inverse
tangent
29.7448813 ≈ mA
Use a calculator.
So, the measure of A is about 30.
Step 2 Find mB using
complementary angles.
mA + mB =90
30 + mB ≈ 90
mB ≈ 60
Definition of
complementary
angles
mA ≈ 30
Subtract 30 from
each side.
So, the measure of B is about 60.
Step 3
Find AB by using the Pythagorean Theorem.
(AC)2 + (BC)2 = (AB)2
Pythagorean Theorem
72 + 42
= (AB)2
Substitution
65
= (AB)2
Simplify.
Take the positive
square root of each
side.
8.06
≈ AB
Use a calculator.
So, the measure of AB is about 8.06.
Answer:
mA ≈ 30, mB ≈ 60, AB ≈ 8.06
Solve the right triangle. Round side measures to
the nearest tenth and angle measures to the
nearest degree.
A. mA = 36°, mB = 54°,
AB = 13.6
B. mA = 54°, mB = 36°,
AB = 13.6
C. mA = 36°, mB = 54°,
AB = 16.3
D. mA = 54°, mB = 36°,
AB = 16.3
