Trigonometric Ratios Review (and some other stuff too!) 2) Right Triangle Trig Ratios: Special Right Triangles 1) 45-45-90 30-60-90 Feb 168:05 PM Feb 12:20 PM Law of Cosines Law of Sines A c A Used for SSS, SAS b c B C a Used for AAS, ASA, SSA b B C a Feb 13:15 PM Feb 13:18 PM 1 Law of Sines... The Ambiguous Case The SSA situation (two sides and an angle opposite one of the two sides) is called the ambiguous case because there may be no triangle, one triangle or two triangles satisfying the given conditions. Example: No Triangle o b = 50, a = 33, A = 132 Example: Two Triangles o a = 125, A = 25 , b = 150 Feb 13:24 PM Example 2: From a point 65 feet in front of a church, the angles of elevation to the base of the steeple and the top of the steeple are 35o and 43o respectively. Find the height of the steeple. Example 1: A ladder 16 feet long leans against the side of a house. Find the height h from the top of the ladder to the ground if the angle of elevation of the ladder is 74o.

Determine the plane's angle of decent. 100 ft. 1600 ft. Feb 13:23 PM Feb 13:23 PM 2 Two airplanes, at points A and B as shown in the diagram below, have elevations of 23,000 ft. and 18,000 ft. respectively. Both are flying east toward an airport control tower at T. From T, the angle of elevation of the airplane at A is 4o, and the angle of elevation of the airplane at B is 2.5o.
