Solving Trigonometric Problems With Gary By: Lilly McCarthy
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.

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.
