ANGLE MEASUREMENT
A. Sexagesimal system - fundamental unit of angle measurement.
”sexagesimus”
B. Centesimal system – the right angle is divided into 100 parts (grade),
the grade divided into 100 parts (minutes) and the minute divided into
100 parts (seconds)
C. Circular/Natural system - angle which, when placed with its vertex at
the center of a circle, intercepts an arc equal in length to the radius of
the circle.
1 revolution = 2π radians (r) = 360 For the function/s
degrees (º) y = A sin(Bx + C) + D

(PYTHAGOREAN TRIANGLE) perimeter of the triangle.

y = r sin θ d. 69
SITUATION
OBLIQUE TRIANGLES Given triangle ABC, how many possible triangles can be formed for the
(NO RIGHT ANGLE) following conditions:
SINE LAW 10. BC = 15cm, AC = 7cm, AB = 8cm.
a b c 11. BC = 17cm, AC = 12cm, AB = 7cm.
= = 12. BC = 16cm, AC = 26cm, angle A = 42.3°.
sin A sin B sin C
13. AB = 37cm, AC = 26cm, angle B = 32.5°.
COSINE LAW
a2 = b2 + c 2 − 2bc cos A
b2 = a2 + c 2 − 2ac cos B
c 2 = a2 + b2 − 2ab cos C

1. Two poles of equal height are standing opposite to each other, on

either side of the road. From a point between them on the road,
2m from the first pole, the angles of elevation of top of the poles
are complementary. Given that the width of the road is 8m wide,
find the height of the poles.

2. P is a point on BC of the triangle ABC such that AB = AC = BP. If

PA = PC, find the value of the angle ABC.

3. Towers A and B are constructed on a horizontal plane, B being

200 m. above the plane. The angle of elevation of the top of Tower
A as seen from point C in the plane (in the same vertical plane
with A and B) is 50˚, while the angle of depression of C viewed
from the top of Tower B is 28˚ and the angle subtended at the top
of Tower B by the top of Tower A and C is 50˚, find the height of
A.

4. The angle of elevation of the tower from A is 25 degrees. From

another point B, the angle of elevation of the top of the tower is
56°. if the distance between A and B is 300 m and on the same
horizontal plane as the foot of the tower. The horizontal angle
subtended by A and B at the foot of the tower is 70°. What is the
height of the tower?

5. Points D and E are the midpoints of the sides BC and CA,

respectively, in triangle ABC. If AD=5 and BC=BE=4, find the
length of CA.

6. Airplanes A and B are flying with constant speed in the same

vertical plane at angles 30 degrees and 60 degrees with respect
to the horizontal, respectively. The airspeed of A is 100 sqrt 3
meters per second. Initially, an observer in A sees B directly ahead
at the same altitude at a (horizontal) distance of 500m. Assuming
they take no evasive action and collide, after how many seconds
does this happen?

7. From a point outside an equilateral triangle, the distance to the

vertices is 10m, 10m, and 18m. Find the dimension of the triangle.

8. An engineer desires to measure the height of the tower by

observing a vertical angle at A. He then moves 54 m further
towards the tower at B and observes the vertical angle to be twice
that of A. He again proceeds to move further towards the tower at
C still on the same line at a distance of 21m. The observed vertical
angle of the tower at this point is three times that at A. Determine
the angle of elevation of the tower at B.
