trigonometric ratios (sine, cosine, tangent) to solve problems that involve right triangles.
1. 1. The Tangent RatioThe Tangent RatioRemember the Tan ratio?
What is the tan ratio and what do we use it for?
The value of the tangent ratio is usually expressed as a decimal that compares the lengths of the sides
ExampleExample
You can use a scientific calculator to determine the measure of an acute angle when you know the value tan ratio
The tan-1 or Inv tan on your calculator does this for you

2. 2. Calculating Length with Calculating Length with Tangent RatioTangent RatioFP10.4 Develop and apply the primary
trigonometric ratios (sine, cosine, tangent) to solve problems that involve right triangles.
The tangent ratio is a powerful tool we can use to calculate the length of a leg of a right triangle
We are measuring indirectly when we measure this way
We can find the length of a leg of a triangle by setting up the tangent formula, as long as we have one of the acute angles and the legs

3. 3. Sine and Cosine RatiosSine and Cosine RatiosFP10.4 Develop and apply the primary
trigonometric ratios (sine, cosine, tangent) to solve problems that involve right triangles.
In a right triangle, the ratios that relate each leg to the hypotenuse depend only on the measure of the acute angle not the size of the triangle
These ratios are called the sine and cosine ratios
The sine ratio is written sin θ
The cosine ratio is written cos θ
The sine, cosine and tangent ratios are called the primary trig ratio
The values of the trig ratios are often expressed as decimals

We can use the sin and cos ratios to write an equation that we can solve to calculate the length of a leg in a right triangle
When the measure of one acute angle and the hypotenuse are know
ExampleExample
The sin and cosine ratios can be used to calculate the measure of the hypotenuse
When the measure of one acute angle and the length of one of the legs are known

When we calculate the measures of all the angles and all the side lengths in a right triangle, we solve the triangles.
We can use any of the three primary trig ratios to do this.

trigonometric ratios (sine, cosine, tangent) to solve problems that involve right triangles.
6. 6. Problems with More Problems with More Triangles Triangles We can use Trig to solve
problems that can be modeled using right triangles
When one more right triangle is involved, we have to decide which triangle to start with

ExampleExample
Sometimes the right triangles are not even in the same plane
