Trig - Find Side Lengths and Angle Measures

By Andrew Schmitt

Solving Right Triangles

Pythagorean Theorem

When a problem involves only sides, use Pythagorean Theorem

Trigonometry

When a problem involves both sides and angles, use SOH-CAH-TOA

Trigonometric Ratios

Remember, each of these ratios relies on you identifying the sides of the triangle based on your reference angle.

Multiple Choice

Which equation should be used to find the missing side length?

$\cos\left(33\right)=\frac{x}{14}$

$\sin\ \left(33\right)=\frac{x}{14}$

$\tan\ \left(33\right)=\frac{x}{14}$

$\tan\left(33\right)=\frac{14}{x}$

$\cos\left(33\right)=\frac{14}{x}$

Multiple Choice

If you are trying to find the hypotenuse, then which equation should be used to find the missing side length?

$\tan\left(35\right)=\frac{x}{12}$

$\tan\left(35\right)=\frac{12}{x}$

$\sin\left(35\right)=\frac{12}{x}$

$\cos\left(35\right)=\frac{12}{x}$

$\cos\left(35\right)=\frac{x}{12}$
