CC Geometry H Aim #27: Students rewrite the Pythagorean theorem in terms of sine and cosine ratios and write tangent as an identity in terms of sine and cosine. Do Now: 1) In a right triangle, with acute angle θ, sin θ = 1/2. What is the degree measure of θ? What is the value of cos θ? θ 2) In a right triangle, with acute angle θ, sin θ = 7/9. What is the value of tan θ? θ 3) What common Pythagorean triple was probably modeled in the construction of o the triangle in figure 2? Use sin 53 ≈ 0.8. The Pythagorean Identity -Let θ be the angle such that sin θ = 0.8. Above, we used an approximation. We do not know exactly what the angle measure is, but we will assign the angle measure that results in the sine of the angle as 0.8 the label θ. We have the following triangle: 0.8 1 θ 0.6 -Since the value of sin θ is 0.8 and the value of cos θ is 0.6, how can we rewrite the leg lengths? 1 θ Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to this triangle: sin θ 1 θ cos θ The statement above is called a Pythagorean Identity. To prove this identity, we will use this diagram: 2 2 2 opp + adj = hyp opp hyp θ 2 Divide both sides by hyp : adj The Quotient Identity sin θ Prove that tan θ = cos θ sin θ = c a cos θ = θ b tan θ = If you are given one of the values of sin θ, cos θ or tan θ, we can find the other two values using the identities (sin θ)2 + (cos θ)2 = 1 and tan θ = sin θ or by using cos θ the Pythagorean theorem. Applying the trigonometric identities: 1) In a right triangle, with acute angle θ, sin θ = 1/2. Use the Pythagorean identity to determine the value of cos θ. 2) In a right triangle, with acute angle θ, sin θ = 7/9. Use the trigonometric identities to determine the value of tan θ. 3) If cos β = 2/3, use the trigonometric identities to find sin β and tan β. 4) Find the missing side lengths of the following triangle using sine, cosine, and/or tangent.

Find the height of the pyramid to the nearest tenth. b. Find the lengths of the sides of the base of the pyramid to the nearest tenth. c. Find the lateral surface area of the right rectangular pyramid to the nearest tenth. (lateral surface area: the area of the side faces, not including the base.) 6) A machinist is fabricating a wedge in the shape of a right triangular prism. One acute angle of the right triangular base is 33, and the opposite side is 6.5 cm. Find the length of the edges labeled l and m using sine, cosine, and/or tangent. Round your answer to the nearest thousandth of a centimeter.

A third point C is marked at the back corner of a property along a perpendicular to the road at B. A straight path joining C to A forms a 28 degree angle with the road.
