  1. 3. is denoted as, sin^-1; we use it to find the acute angle of a right triangle that has the ratio O/H.
  2. 4. is denoted as, tan^-1; we use it to find the acute angle of a right triangle that has the ratio O/A.
  3. 6. if a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a & b are the legs of a the triangle and c is the hypotenuse, then the triangle is a right triangle.
  4. 10. the angle made by a line that rises above the horizontal.
  5. 11. a mathematical expression that has a radical sign/symbol such as a square root (√) or a cube root (∛).
  6. 12. the trigonometric function that is equal to the ratio of the side opposite to an acute angle to the hypotenuse, in a right triangle.
  7. 13. these have side lengths relationship: a, a, a√2.
  8. 14. the trigonometric function that is equal to the ratio of the side opposite to an acute angle to the adjacent side, in a right triangle.
  9. 15. to find all measures of unknown angles and sides of a right triangle. To do this, you need to know either: 1). Two side lengths, or 2). One side length and one acute angle.

  1. 1. the trigonometric function that is equal to the ratio of the side adjacent to an acute angle to the hypotenuse, in a right triangle.
  2. 2. the angle made by a line that falls below the horizontal.
  3. 5. a ratio that uses two sides of a right triangle in order to find the missing value.
  4. 7. When an altitude is drawn from the right angle of a triangle, it creates three of these.
  5. 8. these have side lengths relationship: a, a√3, 2a.
  6. 9. is denoted as, cos^-1; we use it to find the acute angle of a right triangle that has the ratio A/H.
