6.1 Right-Triangle Trigonometry
Objectives:
1. Define the six trigonometric ratios of an acute angle in terms of a right triangle.
2. Evaluate trigonometric ratios, using triangles and on a calculator.

Units of Measure in a Circle
Degrees: One degree is 1/360th of a circle.
Minutes: One minute is 1/60th of a degree.
Seconds:
One second is 1/60th of a minute or 1/3600th of a degree.
Degrees are not the smallest unit of measure in a circle. Sometimes measurements are written with Degree, Minutes, & Seconds (DMS Form).

Ex. #1 Converting Between Decimal Form and DMS Form
A. Write in decimal form: "9 '30 42
5025.42
0025.05.0423600
9
60
3042
Since there are 60 seconds in a minute, the 9” needs divided by 60 twice, or just divided by 3600 which is 60(60).

Ex. #1 Converting Between Decimal Form and DMS Form
B. Write in DMS form: 4125.31
"45'2431
"6075.0'2431
'75.2431
'604125.031
Truncate the decimal
by removing whole units and multiply the remainder by seconds.
Repeat the process a second time and you have DMS Form.

Memorizing the Reciprocal Functions
The reciprocal functions can be memorized by remembering that the prefix of “co-” is used only once in each pair. Start with the easiest pair to remember:
tangent / cotangent sine / cosecant cosine / secant

Ex. #3 Evaluating Trig. Ratios on a Calculator
Evaluate the six trigonometric ratios of 15° using a calculator.NOTE: Make sure your calculator is set to Degree Mode first!
7321.315tan
115cot
0352.115cos
115sec
8637.315sin
115csc
2679.015tan
9659.015cos
2588.015sin
The 3 main functions are easy to enter, but to do the reciprocal functions we must do what their name says, take the reciprocal.
