Trigonometric Ratios A RATIO is a comparison of two numbers. For example; boys to girls cats : dogs right : wrong. In Trigonometry, the comparison is between sides of a triangle ( right triangle). CCSS: G.SRT.7 EXPLAIN and USE the relationship between the sine and cosine of complementary angles. Standards for Mathematical Practice • 1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. • 2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. • 3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. • 4. Model with mathematics. • 5. Use appropriate tools strategically. • 6. Attend to precision. • 7. Look for and make use of structure. • 8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

How do we use trigonometric ratios to solve real-life problems? Trig. Ratios Name “say” Abbreviation Abbrev. Ratio of an angle measure Sine Cosine tangent Sin Cos Tan Sinθ = opposite side cosθ = adjacent side hypotenuse hypotenuse tanθ =opposite side adjacent side Three Trigonometric Ratios • Sine – abbreviated ‘sin’. – Ratio: sin θ = opposite side hypotenuse Θ this is the symbol for an unknown angle measure. It’s name is ‘Theta’. • Cosine - abbreviated ‘cos’. – Ratio: cos θ = adjacent side hypotenuse • Tangent - abbreviated ‘tan’. – Ratio: tan θ = opposite side adjacent side Easy way to remember trig ratios: SOH CAH TOA Let’s practice… Write the ratio for sin A B Sin A = o = a h c c Write the ratio for cos A a C b Cos A = a = b h c A Write the ratio for tan A Let’s switch angles: Find the sin, cos and tan for Angle B: Sin B = b c Tan A = o = a a b Cos B = a c Tan B = b a Make sure you have a calculator… I want to find Use these calculator keys sin, cos or tan ratio Angle measure Set your calculator to ‘Degree’…..

To solve a right triangle, means to determine the measures of all six (6) parts. You can solve a right triangle if the following one of the two situations exist: – Two side lengths – One side length and one acute angle measure E.Q • How do we use right triangles to solve real life problems? Note: • As you learned in Lesson 9.5, you can use the side lengths of a right triangle to find trigonometric ratios for the acute angles of the triangle. As you will see in this lesson, once you know the sine, cosine, or tangent of an acute angle, you can use a calculator to find the measure of the angle. WRITE THIS DOWN!!! • In general, for an acute angle A: – If sin A = x, then sin-1 x = mA – If cos A = y, then cos-1 y = mA – If tan A = z, then tan-1 z = mA The expression sin-1 x is read as “the inverse sine of x.” • On your calculator, this means you will be punching the 2nd function button usually in yellow prior to doing the calculation. This is to find the degree of the angle. C Example 1: • Solve the right triangle. Round the decimals to the nearest tenth. 3 B 2 c HINT: Start by using the Pythagorean Theorem. You have side a and side b. You don’t have the hypotenuse which is side c—directly across from the right angle. A C Example 1: 3 B (hypotenuse)2 = (leg)2 + (leg)2 2 c c2 = 32 + 22 c2 = 9 + 4 Pythagorean Theorem Substitute values Simplify c2 = 13 c = √13 c ≈ 3.6 Simplify Find the positive square root Use a calculator to approximate A Example 1 continued • Then use a calculator to find the measure of B: 2nd function Tangent button 2 Divided by symbol 3 ≈ 33.7° Finally • Because A and B are complements, you can write mA = 90° - mB ≈ 90° - 33.7° = 56.3° The side lengths of the triangle are 2, 3 and √13, or about 3.6. The triangle has one right angle and two acute angles whose measure are about 33.7° and 56.3°. Ex. 2: Solving a Right Triangle (h) • Solve the right triangle.

J h G Using Right Triangles in Real Life • Space Shuttle: During its approach to Earth, the space shuttle’s glide angle changes. • A. When the shuttle’s altitude is about 15.7 miles, its horizontal distance to the runway is about 59 miles. What is its glide angle? Round your answer to the nearest tenth. Solution: • You know opposite and adjacent sides. If you take the opposite and divide it by the adjacent sides, then take the inverse tangent of the ratio, this will yield you the slide angle. Glide = x° altitude 15.7 miles distance to runway 59 miles tan x° = opp. Use correct ratio adj. tan x° = 15.7 Substitute values 59 Key in calculator 2nd function, tan 15.7/59 ≈ 14.9 When the space shuttle’s altitude is about 15.7 miles, the glide angle is about 14.9°.
