Unit 5: Right Triangle Trigonometry
Special Right Triangles:

A right triangle with angle measures of 45°, 45°, 90° is called a 45°-45°-90°
triangle.


A right triangle with angle measures of 30°, 60°, 90° is called a 30°-60°-90°
triangle.
hypotenuse = 2 · shorter leg
longer leg = shorter leg · 3

To find missing angle measures use the inverse keys ( sin ,cos ,tan )
o You can use sin, cos, or tan if you are given all three side lengths because you
will still get the same answer
To find the missing side lengths us the trigonometric ratios and solve for the variable
o When the variable is in the numerator, multiply the two known numbers
(example: cos54 =
o
x
 x = (10)(cos54))

When the variable is in the denominator divide the two known numbers
