Basic Trig Word Problems TRIGONOMETRY • As a plane flies over East Leyden (2.5 miles away), The angle of elevation to the plane is 720. How high up is the plane? • Godzilla is 400 ft tall. If the angle of elevation to • the top of his head is 480 from where you stand, how far away is Godzilla? Menu
Basic Trig Word Problems TRIGONOMETRY • Superman is flying at an altitude of 1,000 ft. He looks and sees Dr. Evil at an angle of declension (angle of depression) of 730. How far is Superman from Dr. Evil? 4. If the angle of elevation to the sun is 200, and a man casts a 7ft shadow, How tall is he (in feet and inches?). Menu
Basic Trig Word Problems • Jamie flies a kite at an angle of elevation of 480. If she has let out 60 ft of string, how high is the kite? 6. A statue of Mickey Mouse is at the top of a cliff. Bob, standing 100 feet from the cliff notes the angle of elevation to the top of the cliff is 370, and the angle of elevation to the top of the statue is 430. How tall is the s tatue?

LAW of SINES: Summary Law of Sines TRIGONOMETRY When do we use the law of sines? Anytime we are solving a triangle and know an angle and the side across from it. We can use it in a right triangle but usually use sohcahtoa instead Summary When might I get no solutions or 2 solutions Anytime you use sin -1 When using sin -1 we get … 0 solutions 1 solution 2 solutions sin -1 (1.2) The angles in the second set of solutions add to more than 180. You get the second set of solutions when you find the first unknown angle. The missing side is too short to reach the rest of the triangle Menu
