UNIT 3: RIGHT TRIANGLE TRIGONOMETRY

This unit investigates the properties of right triangles. The trigonometric ratios sine, cosine, and tangent along with the Pythagorean Theorem are used to solve right triangles in applied problems. The relationship between the sine and cosine of complementary angles is identified.

Here are some helpful videos to refresh your memory.

Match each trigonometric function with its ratio:

  • opposite/adjacent
  • opposite/hypotenuse
  • adjacent/hypotenuse
  • sine
  • cosine
  • tangent
