Trigonometry-Word Probems-Finding Angles using Sine-MooMooMath




Trigonometry Application Problems-Using Sine

This is a short trigonometry problem that uses the trig function sine in order to solve an application problem.The application problem is asking for an angle measure of a right triangle.

A skateboard ramp is 6 feet long and three feet high,what is the angle of elevation?

Step 1. Draw a picture. When you draw the picture you notice the ramp forms a right triangle.

Step2. See which sides of the right triangle you have. In this problem you have opposite and hypotenuse.

Step3. When you are finding angle you will use the inverse function of sine I call these backward problem

Finding the Area of a Triangle




How to find the area of a triangle.

Common Core Standards: 6.G.1 – Find the area of right triangles, other triangles, special quadrilaterals, and polygons by composing into rectangles or decomposing into triangles and other shapes; apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.

7.G.6 – Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, volume and surface area of two- and three-dimensional objects composed of triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, cubes, and right prisms.
