7 UNIT 2 RIGHT TRIANGLE TRIGONOMETRY Lesson 2: Problem Solving with Trigonometric Ratios Georgia Performance Standard MM2G2: Students will define and apply sine, cosine, and tangent ratios to right triangles. c. Solve application problems using the trigonometric ratios. Essential Questions 1. How can trigonometric ratios be used to solve problems (such as finding area and or perimeter) of other geometric shapes? 2. How can right triangles and trigonometric ratios be used to indirectly measure heights and distances? 3. In what ways can trigonometric ratios be used in engineering and buildings? WORDS TO KNOW adjacent side the side of a triangle that is formed by one of the sides of the angle angle of elevation the angle formed by an imaginary horizontal line from an observer to the line of sight to an object up from the horizontal from the same observer angle of depression the angle formed by an imaginary horizontal line from an observer to the line of sight to an object down from the horizontal from the same observer cosine the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to the angle to the length of the hypotenuse hypotenuse longest side of a right triangle; the side opposite the 90 angle opposite side the side of a triangle that is NOT formed by one of the sides of the angle sine the ratio of the length of the side opposite to the angle to the length of the hypotenuse tangent the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the side adjacent to the angle 169 Georgia Mathematics 2 Teacher Resource Binder

8 UNIT 2 RIGHT TRIANGLE TRIGONOMETRY Lesson 2.2.1: Angles of Elevation and Depression Prerequisite Skills Identifying sine, cosine, and tangent ratios Using technology to find sine, cosine, and tangent ratios Identifying Sine, Cosine, and Tangent Ratios Students sometimes have difficulty remembering and applying trigonometric ratios in right triangles. Remind them of the mnemonic SOHCAHTOA, which stands for: Sine = Opposite Hypotenuse = O H Cosine = Adjacent Hypotenuse = A H Tangent = Opposite Adjacent = O A When applying the trigonometric ratios to each angle, it may help students to first label the sides of the triangle opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse. Walk students through the following example on the whiteboard or overhead. Example In right triangle ABC below, C is a right angle. What is the length of the side opposite angle A? What is the length of the side adjacent to angle A? What is the length of the hypotenuse? What are the values of sin A, cos A, and tan A? 170 Georgia Mathematics 2 Teacher Resource Binder

9 UNIT 2 RIGHT TRIANGLE TRIGONOMETRY By looking at the diagram, we see that: The side opposite angle A is BC, which has length 35. The side adjacent to angle A is AC, which has length 12. The hypotenuse of the triangle is AB, which has length 37. Using this information, we can calculate the trigonometric ratios of angle A: sin A = cos A = tan A = length of side opposite angle A hypotenuse length of side adjacent to angle A hypotenuse = = length of side opposite angle A length of side adjacent to angle A = Georgia Mathematics 2 Teacher Resource Binder

10 NAME: UNIT 2 RIGHT TRIANGLE TRIGONOMETRY Prerequisite Practice 2.2.1: Identifying Sine, Cosine, and Tangent Ratios Use the diagram to answer the questions below. 1. What is the length of the side opposite angle X? 2. What is the length of the side adjacent to angle X? 3. What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle? 4. What is the value of sin X? 5. What is the value of cos X? 6. What is the value of tan X? 172 Georgia Mathematics 2 Teacher Resource Binder

11 UNIT 2 RIGHT TRIANGLE TRIGONOMETRY Using Technology to Find Sine, Cosine, and Tangent Ratios Students can use technology to find the sine, cosine and tangent of any angle (rather than referring back to the triangles they created in Lesson 1.2). Students may have limited experience with this skill, so be careful when explaining the keystrokes. Make sure the students have the calculator set in Degree mode (rather than Radian mode). Review this skill by walking students through the following example on the whiteboard or overhead with graphing utility attached. Example Find sin 38, cos 17, and tan 65 using a calculator. 1. Locate the [SIN] key on your calculator. Type [SIN] then 38 followed by the ENTER key. The value of sin 38 is Locate the [COS] key on your calculator. Type [COS] then 17 followed by the ENTER key. The value of cos 17 is Locate the [TAN] key on your calculator. Type [TAN] then 65 followed by the ENTER key. The value of tan 65 is Georgia Mathematics 2 Teacher Resource Binder

13 UNIT 2 RIGHT TRIANGLE TRIGONOMETRY Lesson Preview Explain to students that in the Problem Solving Learning Task they will need to be able to model real-world situations using triangles. They will also need to be able to use trigonometric ratios within those triangles to solve real-world problems. To model real-world situations using right triangles, students may need to first review the problems found in the Warm-Up. Ask students, How can we use a right triangle to represent the situation in Question 1? Appropriate answers will include a sketch of a right triangle with correctly labeled sides and angles. To challenge students, ask for other situations that can be modeled with right triangles. Appropriate answers will be any other application of right triangles to real-world situations. Follow this up by asking about how trigonometric ratios can be used with the right triangles to solve real-world problems. Students should respond by saying that the ratios can be used to find missing sides and angles in the right triangles that represent real-world situations. 175 Georgia Mathematics 2 Teacher Resource Binder

14 UNIT 2 RIGHT TRIANGLE TRIGONOMETRY Lesson 2.2.2: Trigonomic Identities Prerequisite Skills Identifying sine, cosine, and tangent ratios Identifying Sine, Cosine, and Tangent Ratios Students sometimes have difficulty remembering and applying trigonometric ratios in right triangles. Students may forget the sine, cosine and tangent ratios. Remind them of the mnemonic SOHCAHTOA, which stands for: Sine = Opposite Hypotenuse = O H Cosine = Adjacent Hypotenuse = A H Tangent = Opposite Adjacent = O A When applying the trigonometric ratios to each angle, it may help students to first label the sides of the triangle opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse. Walk students through the following example on the whiteboard or overhead. Example In right triangle ABC below, C is a right angle. What is the length of the side opposite angle A? What is the length of the side adjacent to angle A? What is the length of the hypotenuse? What are the values of sin A, cos A, and tan A? 176 Georgia Mathematics 2 Teacher Resource Binder

15 UNIT 2 RIGHT TRIANGLE TRIGONOMETRY By looking at the diagram, we see that: The side opposite angle A is BC, which has a length of 24. The side adjacent to angle A is AC, which has a length of 10. The hypotenuse of the triangle is AB, which has a length of 26. Using this information we can calculate the trigonometric ratios of angle A: sin A = cos A = tan A = length of side opposite angle A hypotenuse length of side adjacent to angle A hypotenuse = = length of side opposite angle A length of side adjacent to angle A = Georgia Mathematics 2 Teacher Resource Binder

16 NAME: UNIT 2 RIGHT TRIANGLE TRIGONOMETRY Prerequisite Practice 2.2.2: Identifying Sine, Cosine, and Tangent Ratios Use the diagram to answer the questions below. 1. What is the length of the side opposite angle X? 2. What is the length of the side adjacent to angle X? 3. What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle? 4. What is the value of sin X? 5. What is the value of cos X? 6. What is the value of tan X? 178 Georgia Mathematics 2 Teacher Resource Binder

17 UNIT 2 RIGHT TRIANGLE TRIGONOMETRY Lesson Preview Explain to students that in the A Start at Trig Identities Learning Task, they will need to be able to identify the opposite, adjacent sides of a right triangle, as well as the hypotenuse. Students must be able to substitute these values into the Pythagorean Theorem. Once students write the Pythagorean Theorem written in terms of opposite, adjacent and hypotenuse, they will divide each side by the square of the hypotenuse. They then need to identify the sine and cosine ratios in the equation. This will help students find a relationship between the sine and cosine of any angle. 179 Georgia Mathematics 2 Teacher Resource Binder
