Practice 8-3: The Tangent Ratio

For this ratios worksheet, 11th graders solve and complete 8 various types of problems. First, they read each problems and draw a sketch for each. Then, students write a trigonometric ratio for each problem and round any decimal answers...

Learners use the tangent ratio to determine the height and base length of a right triangle.  In this using the tangent ratio to determine the height and base length of a right triangle lesson, students construct a right triangle and...

Students calculate the tangent ratio given a right triangle. In this trigonometry activity, students use a right triangle and the Pythagorean Theorem to solve problems.

In this tangent ratios worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 26 various types of problems. First, they find the tangent angle as a fraction and as a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth. Then, students use a calculator to find...

What does geometry have to do with depression? It's an angle of course! Learners apply the tangent ratio to problem solving questions by finding missing lengths. Problems include angles of elevation and angles of depression. Pupils make...

Learners explore the concept of the tangent ratio.  In this tangent ratio lesson, students construct a right triangle from perpendicular lines.  Learners measure the ratio of the legs of the triangles using a geometry program such as...

Discover the relationship between tangent lines and the tangent function. Class members develop the idea of the tangent function using the unit circle. They create tables of values and explore the domain, range, and end behavior of the...

Sal starts a new set of practice SAT problems in this video, starting on page 652 of The Official SAT Study Guide. Problems involve fractions and ratios, simplifying equations, and finding the perimeter of given coordinates on a plane.

Your mathematicians practice expressing rates with ratios. They identify from among 12 ratios the ones that are unit rates. They express six given situations as two equal rates each. Finally, they interpret data about fuel efficiency...

This video covers the differential notation dy/dx and generalizes the rule for finding the derivative of any polynomial. It also extends the notion of the derivatives covered in the Khan Academy videos, "Calculus Derivatives 2Ó and...
