Let’s find the calculator connections. Draw a 30º-60º-90º to help you find sin 30º. Now use your calculator to find sin 30º. So… What is sin 45º? What is cos 27º? What is tan 62º? 1 .8910 1.881
Can using the calculator help us solve this problem? In triangle PQR, mP = 90º, and mQ = 35º. If PQ = 16, find the lengths of the other two sides.

What about indirect measurement? • The angle of elevation of a kite with respect to the ground is 79º. If 100’ of string is holding the kite to the ground, how high is the kite actually flying?
Solution: • The angle of elevation of a kite with respect to the ground is 79º. If 100’ of string is holding the kite to the ground, how high is the kite flying? 100’ h 79º
You try…. A surveyor is standing 50 feet from the base of a large tree. The surveyor measures the angle of elevation to the top of the tree as 71.5°. How tall is the tree? tan 71.5° x tan 71.5° 71.5° x = 50 (tan 71.5°) 50 x = 50 (2.98868)
A person is 200 yards from a river. Rather than walk directly to the river, the person walks along a straight path to the river’s edge at a 60° angle. How far must the person walk to reach the river’s edge? cos 60° x (cos 60°) = 200 200 60° x x X = 400 yards
