How can trigonometric ratios be used to find the area of a triangle?

By themselves, they cannot. Two similar triangles have the same angels and so they have the same trig ratios. You need to know the length of at least one side to determine the area.


What are the 3 trig ratios and how do they work?

A right angle triangle has three sides and three interior angles one of which is 90 degrees. The names of its sides are the adjacent the opposite and the hypotenuse and using the 3 trig ratios we can find the interior angles or lengths of the sides depending on the information given.Tangent angle = opposite/adjacentSine angle = opposite/hypotenuseCosine angle = adjacent/hypotenuseIf we are given the lengths of 2 sides we can work out the angles with the above ratios.If we are given a length and an angle we can work out the lengths of the other 2 sides by rearranging the above ratios.


Why is calculus important to trigonometry?

In advanced mathematics, familiar trigonometric ratios such as sine, cosine or tan are defined as infinite series. For example, sin(x) = x - x3/3! + x5/5! - ... Such series are used to calculate trig ratios and the proof of their their convergence to a specific value depends on calculus.
