Tangent (tan)= leg opposite the angle/ leg adjacent The angle tan=opp./adj.
Use tan to find a leg and tan-1 to find the angle
Section 11-2
Sine and Cosine Ratios
Sine (sin)= Opposite leg/ hypotenuse sin=opp./hyp.
Sosine (cos)= Adjacent leg/ hypotenuse cos= adj./hyp.
Use sin and cos to find the sides and sin-1 and cos-1 to find the angles
Section 11-3
Angles of Elevation and Depression
Angle of Elevation- horizontal sight line
Angle of Depression- horizontal sightline looking down
