Trigonometry

Study of triangles:
       - Angles add up to 180 degrees
       - Triangles have 3 sides and 3 angles (vertices)

Types of triangles:
       By angles:                       or                      by sides:
     - acute - 3<90 degrees                              - isosceles - 2 sides =
     - obtuse - 1>90 degrees                            - equilateral - all sides =
     - right - 1=90 degrees                               - scalene - no sides =

Pythagorean Theorem 

         A2 + B2 = C2
               x2 + 92 =152
                x2 =152 - 92
                  x2 = 144       
            x = 12







Trig Ratios

     - SineΘ 
      - Cosine Θ
      - Tangent Θ
                  
 Sine Θ = opposite (over) Hypotenuse
 Cosine Θ = adjacent (over) Hypotenuse 
 Tangent Θ = opposite (over) adjacent


           Label
Θ = 37 degrees                     sine Θ = O / H
O = 11 cm                             sine 37 = 11 / x
A =
H = x



Label the Sides

                        S o/h C a/h T o/a
Θ = 24 degrees
O =
A = x
H = 15

cos24 =  x/15



15(0.9135)=(x/15)15  13.7025 = x

Θ = 24 degrees                cos24 = x/25
O =                                   25(.9135)=(x/25)25
A = x                                22.8375 = x
H = 25



Θ = theta           tan(theta)= O/A
O = 3                 tan(theta) = 3/6
A = 6                 tan(theta) = 0.5
H =                   (theta) = 27 degrees







THE BEE!!

There was an evil bee/wasp/monster/devil thing in the room today and it almost ate and destroyed us all!! It totes probs almost set the school on fire.........
                                                               This is what it looked like ->
