22 Summary Trigonometry is the area of mathematics that relates to the fact that in similar right-angled triangles, the ratios of the side lengths are the same. A right-angled triangle has one angle of 90. The side opposite the right angle is called the hypotenuse and is the longest side of the triangle. The side opposite to the angle eing used is laeled the opposite side. The side net to the angle eing used is laeled the adjacent side. The laels for the opposite side and the adjacent side depend on which angle is eing used. The hypotenuse is always the longest side. The trigonometric ratios are named sine, cosine, and tangent and are shortened to sin, cos, and tan. The trigonometric ratios are : rememered as sin = side opposite sin = O H SOH hypotenuse cos = side adjacent to cos = A H CAH hypotenuse tan = side opposite tan = O A TOA side adjacent When the hypotenuse is 1, scaling can e used to fi nd the length of sides of similar right-angled triangles. The trigonometric ratios can e used to fi nd missing side lengths in right-angled triangles. The horizontal is the ase line from where you are measuring. This may e the ground or it could e eye height. The angle of elevation is the angle the eyes look up from the horizontal to an oject. The angle of depression is the angle the eyes look down from the horizontal to an oject. If the horizontal is taken at eye height and the height of an oject is eing found, then the height of the person must e taken into account. You need to solve a prolem using a right-angled triangle, then add or sutract the height of the person s eye level. A clinometer is used to measure the angle of a slope. A simple clinometer can e made from a protractor, a piece of string, a weight such as a metal washer, and a straw or pencil. The inverse trigonometric ratios can e used to fi nd missing angles in right-angled triangles. To fi nd a missing angle the trigonometric ratio must e inverse. The trigonometric ratios to fi nd missing angles are: sin 1 ( O H ), cos 1 ( A H ) or tan 1 ( O A ). adjacent opposite hypotenuse hypotenuse opposite adjacent 185 M07_ADEC_SB_09_ARW_8265_U07.indd /04/ :32
