a picture based story/comic strip on Application of Trigonometry
Storyboard-Text
- My name is Sarthak and I am going to tour the city! Help me figure out the lengths and angles of different objects in the city using trigonometry!
- Here we have a window and we are trying to find the angle of depression from the window. The Height of the building is 15 ft tall and the object below is 17 ft away. Here we use the inverse of Sin. x= Sin 15/17. The angle of depression is 62 degrees.
- Here we are trying to find the height of the light. The length from the light to the bench is 5 ft and the angle from the bench to the post is 37 degrees. We are going to use Cosine of 37= x/5. The height of the light is 4 ft.
- Now we are trying to find the width of the building. The height from the second floor window is 8 ft tall and the hypotenuse is 10 ft long. To find the width, we use the Pythagorean Theorem. 8^2 plus b^2 = 10^2. B= 6 ft. The width of the building is 6 ft wide.
