Tech Math: Trig Ratios & Pythagorean Theorem

 




Relevant Material: "Algebra, trig ratios, and the Pythagorean theorem are used to find unknown sides and angles in a right triangle. The Pythagorean theorem (

a2+b2=c2a squared plus b squared equals c squared
) finds a missing side when two others are known, while trig ratios (SOH CAH TOA) relate an angle to the ratios of its opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse sides. These concepts can be used together, for instance, to find a missing side using a trig ratio and then verify it with the Pythagorean theorem, or to find a missing side with the Pythagorean theorem first before solving for trig ratios. ..."
