Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Unit 5: Trigonometry Page 1 Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Unit 5: Trigonometry Introduction: This unit deal with Pythagorean Theorem, and the trigonometric ratios of sine, cosine, and tangent. You will be using these to solve word problems as well. Trigonometry is based on the relationship between the measure of the angles and the lengths of the sides of a right angle triangle. These skills are necessary in occupations such as carpentry, aviation and astronomy. You will also learn how to solve 2D and 3D triangles.

Pythagorean Theorem: c a Hypotenuse π2 + π 2 = π 2 b The hypotenuse is the side that is always opposite (across from) the 90° angle. This is always side C in the Pythagorean Theorem. Example: Determine the length of the missing for the following triangle. Solution: x 3 π₯ 2 = 32 + 42 π₯ 2 = 9 + 16 π₯ 2 = 25 π₯ = β25 = 5 4 Example: Determine the length of the missing side for each of the following triangle. Solution: 102 = π₯ 2 + 82 100 = π₯ 2 + 64 100 β 64 = π₯ 2 80 = π₯ 2 π₯ = β80 = 8.9 Example: Determine the length of the missing side for each of the following triangle. Solution: 152 = π₯ 2 + 72 225 = π₯ 2 + 49 225 β 49 = π₯ 2 360 = π₯ 2 π₯ = β360 = 18.9 10 x 8 15 x 7 Page 3 Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Word Problems using the Pythagorean Theorem Example: Scott wants to swim across a river that is 400m wide. He plans to swim directly across the river but ends up 100m downstream because of the current. How far did he actually swim? Solution: Step 1: Draw a diagram for the right angle triangle: 400 m x 100 m Step 2: Label the sides of the triangle. Pay attention to where the hypotenuse is!!! 400 m x HYP 100 m π₯ 2 = 4002 + 1002 π₯ 2 = 160000 + 10000 π₯ 2 = 170000 π₯ = β170000 = 412.3π Page 4 Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Example: To get from point A to point B you must avoid walking through a building. To avoid the building, you walk 14m south and 25m east. How many metres would you have saved had the building not been there? Solution: Must walk 14 + 25 = 39π x 14 m 142 + 252 = π₯ 2 196 + 625 = π₯ 2 821 = π₯ 2 π₯ = β821 = 28.65π 25 m If was able to walk through the building would only have to walk 28.65 m. So would save 39 β 28.65 = 10.35π Example: The foot of a 6m ladder is placed 2m from the base of a building. How far up the building does that ladder reach? Solution: 6m x π₯ 2 + 22 = 62 π₯ 2 + 4 = 36 π₯ 2 = 36 β 4 π₯ 2 = 32 π₯ = β32 = 5.7π 2m Page 5 Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Example: Calculate x to the nearest tenth of a metre. 12 m 7m x 4m Solution: π¦ 2 + 72 = 122 π¦ 2 + 49 = 144 π₯ 2 = 144 β 49 π₯ 2 = 95 π₯ = β95 = 9.75π π₯ 2 + 42 = 9.752 π¦ 2 + 16 = 95 π₯ 2 = 95 β 16 π₯ 2 = 79 π₯ = β79 = 8.89π Page 6 Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Curriculum Outcomes: 11E4.Develop a spatial sense related to triangles.

The three sides are: 1. Hypotenuse: is the side of the triangle that is always opposite the 90° angle 2. Opposite: is the side that is opposite (across from) the given angle, we never use the 90° angle to find the opposite side 3. Adjacent: is the side that is adjacent (next to) the given angle we never use the 90° angle to find the adjacent side Example: Label the sides of the following triangle. ΞΈ Solution: The side that is across from the 90° angle is the Hypotenuse. The side that is across from the angle π± is the Opposite and the side that is next to the given angle π± is the Adjacent side. Page 8 Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Using the calculator: First, we need to make sure that our calculator is set in Degrees. To do this, check the screen on the calculator, it should have a D, DEG, or a DRG. If it has any of the following we need to change it to Degrees: R, RAD, G, GRAD. To change the settings on the calculator look for a button that had DRG on it. Press it until you see D, DRG or DEG on the screen of your calculator. This will make sure that your calculator is in Degrees. It is important that we do this since all of the angles in this unit are measured in degrees, if your calculator is set in something different all of your answers will be incorrect. Depending on your calculator you will either enter the trigonometric function first or the number first. Example: π ππ 45 = 0.7071 Example: πππ 73 = 0.2924 Example: π‘ππ 54 = 1.3764 We can also use the functions to determine the size of the angle. These are called the Inverse Trig Functions. These are found on the calculator and not as their own buttons. To use these functions we must press the INV, Shift, or 2nd button on the calculator Example: πππ ο± = 0.7 Solution: π ππβ1 π πππ β1 π π‘ππβ1 π π = cos β1 0.7 π = 45° Example: π ππ ο± = 0.15 Solution: π = sinβ1 0.15 π = 8.6° Example: π‘ππ ο± = 6.2 Solution: π = tanβ1 6.2 π = 81° Page 9 Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Trigonometric Ratios Example: Determine the length of the missing side. 15.2 7 320 x x 0 45 Solution: sin 45 = π₯ sin 32 = 7 π₯ 0.7071 = 7 π₯ 15.2 π₯ πΆπππ π ππ’ππ‘ππππ¦ π‘π π πππ£π πππ π₯ 0.5299 = 15.2 (0.7071)(7) = π₯ (0.5299)(15.2) = π₯ 4.95 = π₯ 8.05 = π₯ Example: Solve for the hypotenuse. x x 220 4.6 7 0 45 Solution: sin 45 = 0.7071 = 4.6 π₯ 4.6 π₯ (0.7071)(π₯) = 4.6 4.6 sin 22 = π₯ = 0.7071 = 6.5 7 π₯ 7 πΆπππ π ππ’ππ‘ππππ¦ 0.3746 = π₯ π·ππ£πππ π‘π π πππ£π πππ π₯ (0.3746)(π₯) = 7 7 π₯ = 0.3746 = 18.7 Page 10 Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Example: Solve for the missing angle. 21 15 ΞΈ 8 16 ΞΈ Solution: sin π = 8 sin π = 15 16 21 sin π = 0.5333 sin π = 0.7619 π = sinβ1 0.5333 = 32.2° π = sinβ1 0.7691 = 50.3° Example: Determine the length of the missing side. 19 7.5 320 x 450 x Solution: cos 45 = π₯ cos 32 = 7.5 π₯ 0.7071 = 7.5 πΆπππ π ππ’ππ‘ππππ¦ π‘π π πππ£π πππ π₯ π₯ 19 π₯ 0.848 = 19 (0.7071)(7.5) = π₯ (0.848)(19) = π₯ 5.3 = π₯ 16.11 = π₯ Page 11 Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Example: Solve for the hypotenuse. x x 220 7.9 450 7.6 Solution: cos 45 = 0.7071 = 7.6 cos 22 = π₯ 7.6 π₯ (0.7071)(π₯) = 7.6 7.9 π₯ 7.9 πΆπππ π ππ’ππ‘ππππ¦ 0.9272 = π·ππ£πππ π‘π π πππ£π πππ π₯ (0.9272)(π₯) = 7.9 7.6 π₯ 7.9 π₯ = 0.7071 = 5.4 π₯ = 0.9272 = 8.5 Example: Solve for the missing angle.

Page 23 Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Example: A camp instructor leads a group of students on a canoe trip across a lake. They leave Half Moon Bay (H) and paddle 7.8km to Jarvis Bay (J). They then turn 69° and paddle 5.1km to a beach. This beach, B, is 7.6km across the lake from Half Moon Bay. At what angle should they turn in order to where they started? Solution: Even though the diagram looks as though we can cut line segment BJ in half, we cannot assume that this is actually true. Our diagram might not be accurate so we cannot make this assumption. sin 69 = π¦ 7.8 0.9336 = π¦ 7.8 (0.9336)(7.8) = π¦ 7.28ππ = π₯ sin π = 7.28 7.6 sin π = 0.9579 π = sinβ1 0.9579 = 73° πβππ¦ π βππ’ππ π‘π’ππ ππ‘ ππ πππππ ππ 73° Page 24 Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Example: Two office towers are 50m apart. From the top of the shorter tower to the top of the taller towers a worker measures the angle of elevation to be 25° and the angle of depression to the base of the taller tower to be 35°. Determine the height of each of the towers? Solution: Remember that both angle of elevation and depression are measured off of a Horizontal line. We must include this horizontal line from the spot where the angles are measured. The observer is standing on the roof of the shorter office building and it is from this point that the angles are measured so here is where the horizontal line is drawn. Angle of Elevation of 25° is UP from the horizontal and angle of depression of 35° is Down from the horizontal. We want to know the height of both of the towers. We can calculate the height of the shorter tower right away: π₯ 50 π₯ 0.7002 = 50 (0.7002)(50) = π₯ tan 35 = y 25° 35° π₯ = 35π 50m z πβπ π βπππ‘ππ ππ’ππππππ ππ 35π x x 50m πππ§ ππ = π ππ π. ππππ = π ππ (π. ππππ)(ππ) = π ππ. ππ = π π = π + π = ππ + ππ. π = ππ. ππ πππ ππππ ππ πππππ πππ ππ ππ. ππ Page 25 Grade 11 Essential Mathematics Trigonometry Curriculum Outcomes: 11E4.TG.1.
