-4 Concept CCByte Use With Lesson 8-3 T E C H N O L O G Y Complementary Angles and Trigonometric Ratios Content Standard G.SRT.7 Explain and use the relationship between the sine and cosine of complementary angles. The acute angles of a right triangle are complementary because the sum of their measures is 90. There is a relationship between the sine and cosine of complementary angles. R 30 What is the relationship between the sine and cosine of complementary angles? 2 1. Refer to right triangle PQR, shown at the right. a. How is the opposite side of R related to the adjacent side of Q? b. How is the adjacent side of R related to the opposite side of Q? c. Compare sin R and cos Q. d. Compare sin Q and cos R. e. Make a conjecture based on your results from parts (c) and (d). 2. Refer to right triangle ABC, shown at the right. a. Are angles B and C complementary? Justify your answer. b. Write sine and cosine ratios for angles B and C. What do you notice about the relationship between sin B and cos C? Between sin C and cos B? c. Is the statement sin B cos C true for all complementary angles of a right triangle? Explain. 3. Reasoning Prove that in a right triangle with acute angles B and C, cos B sin (90 mB).

For NMOP, sin P is equal to the cosine of which angle? Explain. c. For NMRQ, cos Q is equal to the sine of which angle? Explain. 5. The sine of an acute angle in a right triangle is the ratio of the length of the leg opposite the angle to the length of the hypotenuse. If you examine the structure of the word cosine and the relationship of the angles in a right triangle, how do you think cosine might have gotten its name? hsm12gese_cc04_t05002.ai c O Q R L P M N d 6. A taut wire runs from the top of a tall pole to the ground. The pole is perpendicular to the ground. The sine of the angle that the wire makes with the ground is 12 13 . What is the cosine of the angle that the wire makes with the top of the pole? Explain. hsm12gese_cc04_t05003.ai Concept Byte Parallel Lines and Related Angles CC-4 HSM12GESE_CC04_SOURCE.indd 147 HSM12GESE_CC04.indd 1 Complementary Angles and Trigonometric Ratios 147 1 7/29/11 6:08:07 PM 7/29/11 6:09:26 PM
