What do you do in trigonometry?
usually its used to find a missing angle or length of a right triangle. Of course there is more to trigonometry. any way you can use sine, cosine, and tangent, to fine the missing angle or length
How do you find the diagonal of a rectangle if you know the length and the angle?
You need to use trigonometry cosine (angle) = length/diagonal diagonal = length/cos(angle)
How do you find the length of a pyramid when you know the height and slant height?
By using trigonometry or Pythagoras' theorem
How do you find the length of a diagonal?
In general, you measure it. In a few special cases you may be able to use geometry or trigonometry.
How was trigonometry used in the construction of the pyramids of Egypt?
Obviously, the pyramids have a lot to do with triangles. To find the hight, length, width, volume, angle of ascent, and surface area of the pyramids, the egyptians had to use trigonometry.
How was trigonometry used?
it is used in real life situation to fin the height of thing and in math you use it to find the length of one of the sides.
How Architectures use Trigonometry in their job?
Whenever an architect makes a line on his bleprint that is not straight or does not lie parallel to the x, y, or z axes, he must use trigonometry to find its length and and the angle it makes with other lines.
How do you find the hypotenuse with only a leg and a degree?
It depends on the position of the 'leg' compared to the known angle. If the 'leg' makes up one of the two sides of the angle, then the other side of the angle is the hypotenuse. In this case the 'leg' would be referred to as the 'adjacent' side. The side the doesn't form part of the angle is referred to as the 'opposite' side. So using the trig. functions. Sin(angle) = opposite / hypotenuse. Then algebraically rearranging hypotenuse = opposite / Sin(angle). Similarly for 'Cos'. Cos(angle) = adjacent/ hypotenuse Hence Hypotenuse = adjacent / Cos(angle) So as an example If the leg/opposite is 2 units. and the angle 30 degrees. Then hypotenuse = 2 / Sin(30). On you calculator you should be find the Sin( 30) = 1/2 = 0.5 Substitute in hypotenuse = 2 / 1/2 ( That is '2' divided by '1/2'), (Division of fractions). hypotenuse = 2 X 2/1 = 4/1 = 4 units. NB When using your calculator to find 'Sin' , 'Cos', and 'Tan' of angles, you will read out some 'horrible' decimal numbers. NNB Do NOT use the TAN(gent) function to find hypotenuse. It is NOT part of the Tan ratio. Here is an 'aide memoire' for the Trig . functions. SOH , CAH, TOA. ( Said as 'soccatoa'). SOH = Sin(angle) = opposite/ hypotenuse = o/h CAH = Cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse = a/h TOA = Tan(Angle) = opposite/adjacent = o/a
How can you find the length of each side of the square?
The question is to vague/general. Measure it? Find the positive square root of the area? Use the diagonal for trigonometry (45-45-90)?
What is a cosine?
In trigonometry, when we look at right triangles, the cosine is the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the length of the hypotenuse.
How do you find trigonometry?
I find it very interesting.
How do you find Missing side of a right angle?
If there is no length for the hypotenuse you have to use the Pythagorean Theorem. If there are two sides missing and a reference angle you could use Trigonometry.
