Basic Applications of Trig Functions
- Right Angle Trigonometry
- Given both legs, find hypotenuse and both other angles
- Given a leg and hypotenuse, find other leg and both other angles
- Given one angle and one side, find everything else
- Height
- More Angle of Elevation
- Angle of Depression
- Angle of Elevation/Depression problem with two angle readings and requiring the solving of two equations in two unknowns to obtain the desired height.
- Dynamic Distances
- Distance between a moving object and a stationary object after a given amount of time
- Distance between two objects moving at different speeds in different directions
- Basic Inverse Trig relationships
- Dealing with problems like sin(arcsin(blah))
