Trigonometry

Pythagoras’ Theorem




◺ a²+ b²= c²
. C² is always referring to the ‘hypotenuse of the triangle’.
. a²and b² refer to the other sides.
. The hypotenuse is the longest side and opposite the right
angle.
* Can only be used when two sides are known and on
right-angle triangles.


Example: Find the hypotenuse where the other two sides
equal 3cm and 4cm.


3𝑐𝑚² + 4𝑐𝑚² = 𝐶²
9𝑐𝑚 + 16𝑐𝑚 = 𝐶²
25 = 𝐶² - We want to know C, not C²
5 = 𝐶 - The answer is not right if the hypotenuse is
smaller than one of the sides

, Labeling a Triangle



Hypotenuse - The longest side and opposite the right angle
Opposite - The side opposite the given angle
Adjacent - The side next to the given angle
