Observe the change in the trigonometric ratios as angles vary. An interactive provides the values of trigonometric ratios for both acute angles in a right triangle. Pupils create a right triangle to match given criteria and find the...

Help your class get their bearings when it comes to right triangles. Pupils determine distances traveled or components given the bearing of a sailboat using an interactive. The scholars develop a sense of finding the bearings of a given...

Determine the distance between two trees from afar. Pupils use an interactive resource to create two right triangles using trees and a plane. They determine the horizontal legs of each triangle to find the distance between the two trees.

Climb the ladder to trigonometry. The interactive introduces trigonometric ratios and finding lengths of sides of right triangles created by a ladder and a building. Learners use the interactive to create triangles by moving the top of...

How far is that boat from the lighthouse? Scholars create diagrams to represent a scenario given the angle of depreciation from a lighthouse to a boat. Learners apply the basic trigonometric functions to find various distances...

Who needs a plan — let trigonometry protect you! Pupils determine the angle of an approaching enemy to a village wall. The scholars determine the exact value of trigonometric functions for the angle. Class members use trigonometry to...
