Example 2: Calculating Trigonometric Ratios
Use your calculator to find the trigonometric ratio. Round to the nearest
hundredth.
sin 52°
Caution!
Be sure your calculator is
in degree mode, not radian
mode.
sin 52°  0.79
Example 3
Use your calculator to find the trigonometric ratio. Round to the nearest
hundredth.
cos 30°
cos 30°  0.87
Example 4
Use your calculator to find each angle measure to the nearest degree.
a. tan-1(0.71)
tan-1(0.75)  35°
b. cos-1(0.05)
cos-1(0.05)  87°

Ex. 3
A surveyor whose eye level is 6 ft above the ground
measures the angle of elevation to the top of the highest
hill on a roller coaster to be 60.7°. If the surveyor is
standing 120 ft from the hill’s base, what is the height of
the hill to the nearest foot?
