1. Answer :
Considering angle θ in the triangle shown above,
opposite side = 21
adjacent side = 20
hypotenuse = 29
sin θ = ᵒᵖᵖ⁄hyp = ²¹⁄₂₉
cos θ = ᵃᵈʲ⁄hyp = ²⁰⁄₂₉
tan θ = ᵒᵖᵖ⁄ₐdⱼ = ²¹⁄₂₀
csc θ = ʰʸᵖ⁄ₒpp = ²⁹⁄₂₁
sec θ = ʰʸᵖ⁄ₐdⱼ = ²⁹⁄₂₀
cot θ = ᵃᵈʲ⁄ₒpp = ²⁰⁄₂₁
2. Answer :
Considering angle θ in the triangle above,
opposite side = 40
adjacent side = 30
hypotenuse = 50
sin θ = ᵒᵖᵖ⁄hyp = ⁴⁰⁄₅₀ = ⅘
cos θ = ᵃᵈʲ⁄hyp = ³⁰⁄₅₀ = ⅗
tan θ = ᵒᵖᵖ⁄ₐdⱼ = ⁴⁰⁄₃₀ = ⁴⁄₃
csc θ = ʰʸᵖ⁄ₒpp = ⁵⁰⁄₄₀ = ⁵⁄₄
sec θ = ʰʸᵖ⁄ₐdⱼ = ⁵⁰⁄₃₀ = ⁵⁄₃
cot θ = ᵃᵈʲ⁄ₒpp = ³⁰⁄₄₀ = ¾
3. Answer :
Using Pythagorean Theorem in the triangle above,
AC2 = AB2 + BC2
AC2 = 152 + 82
AC2 = 225 + 64
AC2 = 289
AC2 = 172
AC = 17
In ΔABC above, AC is hypotenuse. Considering angle C, AB is opposite side.
sin C = ᵒᵖᵖ⁄hyp
= ¹⁵⁄₁₇
4. Answer :
Using Pythagorean Theorem in the triangle above,
AC2 = AB2 + BC2
392 = AB2 + 362
1521 = AB2 + 1296
225 = AB2
152 = AB2
15 = AB
In ΔABC above, AC is hypotenuse. Considering angle A, AB is adjacent side.
cos A = ᵃᵈʲ⁄hyp
= ¹⁵⁄₃₉
5. Answer :
In the triangle above, considering angle 60°,
adjacent side = x
hypotenuse = 17
So, we have to use the trigonometric ratio cosine to find the value of x.
cos 60° = ᵃᵈʲ⁄hyp
cos 60° = ˣ⁄₁₇
Multiply both sides by 17.
17(cos 60°) = x
Using calculator,
17(0.5) = x
x = 8.5
6. Answer :
In the triangle above, considering angle 59°,
opposite side = y
hypotenuse = 17
So, we have to use the trigonometric ratio sine to find the value of x.
sin 59° = ᵒᵖᵖ⁄hyp
sin 59° = ʸ⁄₁₇
Multiply both sides by 17.
17(sin 59°) = x
Using calculator,
17(0.8571.....) = x
x ≈ 14.6
7. Answer :
In the triangle above, considering angle 51°,
adjacent side = 10
hypotenuse = z
So, we have to use the trigonometric ratio cosine to find the value of z.
cos 51° = ᵃᵈʲ⁄hyp
cos 51° = ¹⁰⁄z
0.6293..... = ¹⁰⁄z
Take reciprocal on both sides.
¹⁄₀.₆₂₉₃..... = ᶻ⁄₁₀
Multiply both sides by 10.
15.9 ≈ z
8. Answer :
In the triangle above, considering angle x,
opposite side = 39
hypotenuse = 44
So, we have to use the trigonometric ratio sine to find the value of x.
sin x = ᵒᵖᵖ⁄hyp
sinx = ³⁹⁄₄₄
x = sin-1(³⁹⁄₄₄)
x = sin-1(0.8863......)
x ≈ 62°
9. Answer :
In the triangle above, considering angle x,
adjacent side = 24
hypotenuse = 36
So, we have to use the trigonometric ratio cosine to find the value of x.
cos x = ²⁴⁄₃₆
cos x = ⅔
x = cos-1(⅔)
x = cos-1(0.6666......)
x ≈ 48°
10. Answer :
In the triangle above, considering angle x,
opposite side = 10
adjacent side = 33
So, we have to use the trigonometric ratio tangent to find the value of x.
tan x = ¹⁰⁄₃₃
x = tan-1(¹⁰⁄₃₃)
x = tan-1(0.3030......)
x ≈ 17°
11. Answer :
In ΔABC above, considering angle θ,
adjacent side = AC = 4
hypotenuse = AB = 5
So, we have to use the trigonometric ratio cosine to find the angle θ.
cos θ = ⅘
θ = cos-1(⅘)
θ = cos-1(0.8)
θ ≈ 37°
The angle made by the ladder with the ground is about 37°.
12. Answer :
In ΔOPM and ΔOQN,
m∠O ≅ m∠O (Reflexive Property)
m∠M ≅ m∠Q (Right Angles)
Two angles of ΔOPM are congruent to two angles of ΔOQN.
By Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate, ΔOPM and ΔOQN are similar triangles.
Find the value of sin θ in ΔOPM.
sin θ = ⁵⁄₂₅
sin θ = ⅕
Find the value of sin θ in ΔOQN.
sin θ = ʰ⁄₃₅
Since ΔOPM and ΔOQN are similar triangles, the values of sin θ in ΔOPM and ΔOQN must be equal.
ʰ⁄₃₅ = ⅕
Multiply both sides by 35.
h = 7
The height QN of the kite from the ground will be 7m.
