Solving Right Triangles using Trig. Ratios
SOH CAH TOA
1. Review: For any right triangle with an acute angle θ, the three basic
trig. ratios are:
sin θ =
θ
cos θ =
tan θ =
2. Using your calculator solve for the unknown angle.
a) sin A = 0.75
b) cos B = ­0.5
c) tan θ = 3.4
"What is the angle whose sine is 0.75?"
3. Solve each of the following triangles for the unknown value.
a)
b)

θ
Since we need (H) and we know
the value of (O), use sinθ.
.
We know (A) and (H)
therefore use cosθ.
