Let’s find the calculator connections.
Draw a 30º-60º-90º to help you find sin 30º.
Now use your calculator to find sin 30º.
So… What is sin 45º?
What is cos 27º?
What is tan 62º?

Can using the calculator help us solve this problem?
In triangle PQR, m P = 90º, and mQ = 35º. If PQ = 16, find the lengths of the other two sides.

What about indirect measurement?
• The angle of elevation of a kite with respect to the ground is 79º. If 100’ of string is holding
the kite to the ground,
how high is the kite
actually flying?
