Q
SOHCAHTOA
A
sin = o/h cos = a/h tan = o/a
1
Q
Finding the hypotenuse?
A
c^2 = 2^2 + 1^2
= 5
= |5
= 2.24 (2dp)
2
Q
bearings?
A
1st quarter = 90
2nd quarter = 180
3rd quarter = 270
4th quarter = 360
3
Q
Finding side lengths with sin/cos/tan
A
eg) cos22 = x/7
x = 7cos22
x = 6.49 (2dp)
OR
tan36 = 5/x x = 5/ tan36 x = 6.88 (2dp)
4
Q
Finding Angles with sin/cos/tan
A
use sin/cos/tan^-1
eg)
sinø = 6/7.5
= 53.13
5
Q
elevation and depression
A
/ = depression \ = elevation
6
Q
shorter sides with theorem
A
a^2 + 5^2 = 7^2
a^2 = 7^2 - 5^2
a = |24
