It concerns the reltionship etween the lengths of the sides in right-ngled tringle. Geometry nd trigonometry re rnches of mthemtics where Pythgors theorem is still widely pplied. Trigonometry is rnch of mthemtics tht llows us to relte the side lengths of tringles to ngles. Comining trigonometry with Pythgors theorem llows us to solve mny prolems involving tringles.

mesurement nd geometry 6.2 Wht is trigonometry? The word trigonometry is derived from the Greek words trigonon (tringle) nd metron (mesurement). Thus, it literlly mens to mesure tringle. Trigonometry dels with the reltionship etween the sides nd the ngles of tringle. Modern dy uses of trigonometry include surveying lnd, rchitecture, mesuring distnces nd determining heights of inccessile ojects. In this chpter reltionships etween the sides nd ngles of right-ngled tringle will e explored. nming the sides of right-ngled tringle The longest side of right-ngled tringle (the side opposite the right ngle) is clled the hypotenuse. In order to nme the remining two sides nother ngle, clled the reference ngle, must e dded to the digrm. The side tht is cross from the reference ngle,, is clled the opposite side, nd the remining side (the side next to the reference ngle) is clled the djcent side. Note: If there is no reference ngle mrked, only the hypotenuse cn e nmed. WorKeD exmple 1 Lel the sides of the right-ngled tringle shown using the words hypotenuse, djcent nd opposite. think 1 The hypotenuse is opposite the right ngle.
