Choose the ratio from the printed pair

Use inverse sine, cosine or tangent with the two available sides, and keep the calculator in degree mode.

Learning objective

What this activity builds

Choose an inverse trigonometric ratio from known side lengths.

Worked example

The opposite side is 3 and the adjacent side is 4. Find angle A.

37 degrees.

tan A = 3/4, so A = arctan(3/4), rounded to the nearest whole degree.

Teaching notes
