    Ali wants to calculate the height of a building and uses trigonometry to solve it. He observes that the angle between himself and the building is 38.7 degrees and the distance between them is 100m. His own height is 2m. Using trigonometric ratios like tangent, he sets up an equation relating the opposite and adjacent sides of the triangle formed. This allows him to calculate that the height of the building is 82.12m. Trigonometry allows solving problems involving lengths and angles of triangles.

    TRY
    SITUATION IN
    OUR LIFE
    HOW TO USE TRIGONOMETRY
    IN OUR DAILY LIFE, WE USE THE TRIGONOMETRY QUITE A LOT BUT
    WE DON’T AWEAR OF IT. TRIGONOMETRI HAS SPREAD ITS
    APPLICATIONS INTO WIDER FIELDS SUCH AS ENGINERING, PHYSICH,
    SURVEYING, AND OTHERS

    ALI
    38.7

    2M
    100M

    THE DIAGRAM ABOVE SHOW A MAN


    AND THE BULDING
    The distance between Ali with that bulding is 100M. Ali viewing angle is 38.7 and height Ali
    is 2M. Ali want to know how height of the bulding. So use trigonometry to help ali to know
    hight of bulding
    A

    c
    b

    38.7
    B
    a C
    100M

    FIRST STEP
    ORGANIZE THE INFORMATION FIRST. IDENTIFY ALL THE SIDES OF THE
    TRIANGLE USING A,B AND C. AFTER THAT, SEARCH (b) ITS MEAN
    OPPOSITE
    USE ONE OF THREE
    TRIGONOMETRICAL RETIONS
    SOH CAH
    SIN= opposite
    TOA
    COSINE= adjacent TANGENT= opposite
    hypotenus hypotenus adjacent
    TAN = OPPOSITE\
    ADJACENT
    (100) TAN 38.7 = b
    1OO
    b = 80.12
    80.12M
    ?

    38.7

    2M
    100M

    AC + height Ali
    80.12M+2M = 82.12M
    WITH THIS WE HAVE PROVED
    THAT HEIGHT OF THE
    BULDING ARE 82.12M BY USING
    TRIGONOMETRY FORMULA
