Basic Trigonometry, Right Triangle and Trigonometric Functions of Any Angle

Topic Review on "Title":

Right triangle: A triangle in which one angle is a right angle

Trigonometric functions on a circle with radius r on the unit circle:

For any angle  in standard position, let be the point on the terminal side of  that is also on the circle .

Complementary angles:

Two angles are called complementary if their sum equals to 90 degrees.

Angle of elevation:

The acute angle measured from the horizontal to a line-of-sight observation of the object.

Angle of depression:

The acute angle made by the line-of –sight observation of the object and the horizontal.

The trigonometric functions of any angle:

Let  be an angle in standard position and let P(x,y) be a point, not the origin, on the terminal side that can be in any quadrant. If is the distance from the origin to the point P(x,y), then

"Title" Tutorial Summary :

This tutorial describes right angle trigonometry in a variety of ways.  First, the trigonometric functions of acute angles are mentioned along with the complementary angle theorem. Solving right triangles is shown with the use of examples and trigonometric functions on a circle with radius r.

Next, applications of trigonometric functions are shown in the examples. It is important to use problem solving techniques when dealing with trigonometry application problems. Last, the use of right triangle is used to find the trigonometric functions of any angle. Evaluating the values of a trigonometric function is shown with the use of a calculator and graphical examples.
