Trigonometry Applications

Today we'll learn how to find missing distances and angles for word problems, using sine, cosine, and tangent (or their inverses).

How to solve:

1. Read the problem.

2. Draw a picture (right triangle).

3. Identify which part you need to find.

4. Use trig ratios or inverse trig ratios to solve.

Different Angles

Knowing which angle is the reference angle can be tricky.

ANGLE OF ELEVATION: "Looking" up.

ANGLE OF DEPRESSSION: "Looking" down.
