FINDING TRIGONOMETRIC RATIOS OF SPECIAL ANGLES

Name: ___________________________________________ Section: _____________________________

Most Essential Learning Competency (MELC)

1. Finds the trigonometric ratios of special angles.

M9GE -IVb-c-1

Learning Objectives

1. Determines the trigonometric ratios involving special angles.

2. Computes and evaluates the exact numerical values of trigonometric expressions
involving special angles
Time Allotment: 1 week (June 7 - 11, 2021)

Key Concepts

In trigonometry, 0°, 30°, 45°, 60° and 90° are called as special angles and they
always lie in the first quadrant. These special angles 30°, 45° and 60° are frequently
seen in applications and we can use geometry to determine the trigonometric ratios
of these angles.

Activities

General Directions: Work on activities that follow. Do it on separate sheets of papers.

Activity 1. The Length of the Indicated Side

Materials:

A sheet of paper, WLAS/ Learners Manual, ballpen, and ruler.

Directions:

Given the special right triangle below, find the value of each variable used
in the figures.

In Geometry, the following sides of special right triangles are related as follows:

 Examples:

a. b.

Solving for h. Solving for q.

5 = leg q = shorter leg
h = hypotenuse 9 3 = longer leg
hypotenuse = leg times 2 shorter leg times 3 = longer leg
h=5• 2 q• 3=9 3

Activity 2. Evaluating Trigonometric Expressions

Materials:

A sheet of paper, WLAS/ Learners Manual, ballpen, and ruler.

Directions:

A. Find the trigonometric ratios of the special acute angles by completing the
table below.
45°- 45°- 90° Right Triangle Theorem
In a 45°- 45°- 90° triangle,
• The legs are congruent; 0
45
• The length of the hypotenuse is equal c=a 2
a
to the leg times 2.

In a 30°- 60°- 90° triangle, 600

• The length of the hypotenuse is twice a c = 2a

the length of the shorter leg
• The length of the longer leg is equal to 300
the shorter leg times 3. b=a 3

Examples: 1 2
