5.5-5.7 Solving Right Triangles
Directions: Examples are in red boxes. You complete the problems in blue boxes. When you are finished, save your work and submit it to the Dropbox. Show your work for full credit.
Problem #1: Fill in the Trigonometric Ratios below.
If you don’t know how to do this problem, look back at unit 5.4.
sin? = cos? = tan? =
Problem #2Solving a right triangle when given one side and one acute angle.
Example: Check out the process for finding all unknown parts of the triangle by using the table below:
Your thought process is listed in RED, what you should fill in the chart is listed in BLUE.
Given
Angle: Given
Side Length Unknown
Side Length Trig Function Set up and Solve Other Side Other Angle
What acute angle are you given?
55o Look at the side with a number. What is that number, and is it the hypotenuse, or the side opposite or adjacent to the given angle?
21 opposite Look at the side with a variable. What is that variable, and is it the hypotenuse, or the side opposite or adjacent to the given angle?
X hypotenuse Which trig function uses the two sides stated in the 2nd and 3rd columns?
SIN Since
Sin?= opp
hyp
Sin 55 = 21
X
Put sin55 over 1 and cross multiply to solve for x
Sin55 = 21
1 x
X*sin55=21
0.819x=21
X = 21/0.819
X = 25.64 Since x = 25.64,
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the last unknown side
212+(FM)2=25.642
FM = 14.71 180-90-55 = 35o
Now you try: Use the example above to fill in the chart and find the unknown sides and angle of the triangle below.
Given
Angle: Given
Side Unknown
Side Trig Function Set up and Solve Other Side Other
Angle
One more time: Solve for x on the triangle below.
(No chart is given to fill out, but use the same thought process! Only solve for x.)
Problem #3Solving a right triangle when given two sides.
Example: Check out the process for finding all unknown parts of the triangle by using the table below:
Your thought process is listed in RED, what you should fill in the chart is listed in BLUE.
One Given
Side Length Other Given
Side Length Trig Function Set up and Solve Other Side Other Angle
Look at one side with a number. What is that number, and is it the hypotenuse, or the side opposite or adjacent to angle x?
7 opposite Look at the other side with a number. What is that number, and is it the hypotenuse, or the side opposite or adjacent to angle x?
4 adjacent Which trig function uses the two sides stated in the 1st and 2nd columns? Remember to use an inverse function when solving for an angle!
TAN-1 Since
?tan?^(-1) (opp/adj)= x
?tan?^(-1) (7/4)= 60.26o
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the last unknown side
72+42=(GM)2
GM = 8.06 180-90-60.26 = 29.74o
Now you try: Use the example above to fill in the chart and find the unknown sides and angle of the triangle below.
D R
M
One Given
Side Length Other Given
Side Length Trig Function Set up and Solve Other Side Other Angle
One more time: Solve for x on the triangle below.
