- Let's Practice:*round to the nearest hundredth
- The first step to solving triangles is to recognize which type of triangle is shown. This is a right triangle, because the corner angle is 90°. All triangle angles add up to 180°!
- )
- )
- The angles are listed below. These functions allow you to solve for a right triangle. You can use Sine, Cosine, Tangent, Cotangent, Secant, and Cosecant. The abbreviations are as follow, sin, cos, tan, cot, sec, and csc.
- adjacent
- )
- x°
- hypotenuse
- opposite

- Sin x°= opp/hypCos x° = adj/hypTan x°= opp/adjCot x° = adj/oppSec x°= hyp/adjCsc x° = hyp/opp
- ***You can use the inverse function of Sine, Cosine, and Tangent to find the length of the triangle's sides.
- sin 28 °= x in / 8 in sin x°= 3.76 in
- )
- 8 in
- x in
- 28°

- cos^-1 x°= 27ft / 35ft cos x°= 25.91°
- hint... use the inverse functions to find the angle
