Lesson: Right Triangle Trigonometry: Solving for a Side Mathematics

Students will be able to

• label the sides and angle of a right triangle,
• find a missing side length in a right triangle (given a figure) using the sine, cosine, and tangent ratios where the unknown is at the top of the ratio,
• find a missing side length in a right triangle (given a figure) using the sine, cosine, and tangent ratios where the unknown is at the bottom of the ratio,
• find all the lengths of a right triangle,
• draw a figure for a question and use it to find unknown lengths,
• interpret and solve real-life and applied problems to find unknown lengths using right triangle trigonometry.
