    4 Test (TST): Trigonometry Test


    Geometry Honors Sem 1 (2023) Name:
    Date:

    Answer the following questions using what you've learned from


    this unit. Write your answers in the space provided. Be sure to
    show all work.

    1. Use the trigonometric ratios sine, cosine, and tangent to answer the
    following questions.

    Part I: Find the sine, cosine, and tangent ratios of . (3 points)

    sine: sin<X = 5/13

    cosine: cos<X = 12/13

    tangent: tan<X = 5/12

    Part II: Find the sine, cosine, and tangent ratios of . (3 points)
    sine: sin<Y = 12/13; Cosine: cos<Y = 5/13; Tangent: tan<Y = 12/

    Part III: Using your answers from parts I and II, what is significant
    about the and the ? Explain your answer. (2 points)

    Sin<X and Cos<Y are equal. Their value is 5/13 because they are
    complementary angles.

    Part IV: Using your answer from parts I and II, how are the
    tangents of and related to each other? Explain your answer.
    (1 point)

    As we can see above, the values of the tangents of ∠X and ∠Y


    are inverses of each other; therefore, the values are the tangent of an
    angle will always be the reciprocal of the tangent of its complementary
    angle.

    Therefore, the tangents of <X and <Y are reciprocals of each other.
    Tan<X = 5/12 and tan<Y = 12/5. This means that tan<Y = 1/tan<X.
    2. A ski resort is building a new ski lift that will transport tourists from
    the base of the mountain to its highest point. This mountain has a
    vertical height of 200 yards, and the ski lift will rise at an angle of 40
    degrees. When the project is completed, how many yards, d, will a
    tourist travel from the base of the mountain to its peak?

    Part I: Sketch a figure to illustrate the scenario above. Label the


    vertices and the lengths that are given in the question. (3 points)

    Part II: Using your sketch from Part I, write an equation using a
    trigonometric ratio to find the distance a tourist will travel from the
    base of the mountain to its peak. Round your answer to the nearest
    100th. Show your work. (2 points)

    sin(40degrees)=200/d

    D(sin(40 degrees))=200

    d=200/sin(40degrees)

    d=311.14 yds
    3. Darcy mounted a motion sensor so it would light a path to the door
    on her deck. If you know AB = 10 feet, and BE and BD trisect ∠ABC,
    what is the perimeter of the deck area to the right of the beam of light
    (△BDC)?

    Part 1: What other angles or sides of △BDC can you label given
    that side AB is 10 feet, BE and BD trisect ∠ABC? Label the diagram
    accordingly, and explain your reasoning. (4 points)

    I can label DC 10 feet because all of the angles are 90


    degrees and that is a rectangle so the lengths opposite from
    each other would be the same. Therefore, that is how I know that
    ab=DC meaning that DC=10ft
    Part 2: Use the trigonometric ratios 30° and 60° to calculate and
    label the remaining sides of △BDC. Show your work. (3 points)

    It is done in the picture above.

    Part 3: Use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the length of


    side BD. Does this method verify the length you found using
    trigonometric ratios? (2 points)

    Yes, if we use the Pythagorean Theorem and the trigonometry


    ratios, they both are equal.

    Part 4: What is the perimeter of the area to the right of the beam
    of light on Darcy's deck (△BDC)? Show your work. Use your
    calculator to round your final answer to the nearest foot. (3 points)
    4. Two cars are starting from positions that are 20 miles apart. They
    are both headed for the same intersection, as depicted in the diagram
    below. Car A is traveling at 30 mph, and Car B is traveling at 45 mph.
    Which car will reach the intersection first?

    Part I: Use the law of cosines to determine how far Car B has to
    travel to reach the intersection. (2 points)

    d= 18^2 + 20^2 - 2(18)(20)/cos(95)d


    = { 18^2 + 20^2 - 2(18)(20)/cos(95)d square rooted }

    = 28.05

    Part II: Use to determine the time necessary for


    Car A to reach the intersection. Round your answer to the nearest
    hundredth of an hour. (1 point)

    T = d/v

    Car A: ta

    = 18/30ta
    = 0.6 hours

    Part III: Use to determine the time necessary for


    Car B to reach the intersection. (1 point)

    T=D/V

    Car B: tb

    = 28.05/45TB

    = 0.62 hours

    Part IV: Which car reaches the intersection first, and by how many
    hours? (2 points)

    Car A will be there 0.02 hours earlier.

    5. Solve for the missing length and the other two angles in the triangle
    below.
    Part I: Use the law of cosines to find the missing third side. (2
    points)

    x = 7.4^2 + 15.8^2 - 2(7.4)(15.8)/cos (54)

    = { 7.4^2 + 15.8^2 - 2(7.4)(15.8)cos54 square rooted }

    = 12.9

    Part II: Use either the law of cosines or the law of sines to find the
    measure of angle C. (2 points)

    Law of Sines: a/sinA=c/sinC -> sin C = c(sinA)/A

    c=15.8 sinC= (15.8)(sin54)/12.92

    a= 12.92 sinC = 0.98936

    A= 54 degrees C=sin^(-1)0.98936 C=82


    degrees

    Part III: Use any method you like to find the measure of angle B. (1
    point)

    A+B+C=180

    54+B+82=180

    B+136=180

    B=180-136

    B= 44 degrees

    6. Solve the triangle below.


    Part I: Use the law of cosines to find the measure of angle B. (2
    points)
    Angle B= 8.67

    Part II: Use the law of sines to find the measure of angle C. (2
    points)

    Angle C = 8.6

    Part III: Use any method you like to find the measure of angle A. (1
    point)

    Angle A = 0.077 -> 0.1

    7. Assume two people, Swanson and Suzie, are standing 35 feet apart
    and are watching a boat race. At a given moment, Swanson
    approximates the angle formed by the lead boat, himself, and Suzie to
    be . Suzie approximates the angle formed by the lead boat, herself,
    and Swanson to be . How far is the boat from Swanson?
    Part I: What is the missing angle in this triangle? (1 point)

    180-(130+30)= 180-160 =

    Missing angle= 20 degrees

    Part II: Use the law of sines to find the distance from Swanson to
    the boat. (2 points)

    d/sin(130) = 35/sin(20)

    d/sin(130) x sin(130) = 35/sin(20) x sin(130)

    d=35(sin130)/sin(20)

    d=78.4 feet

    8. Solve the following triangle for all missing sides and angles.
    Part I: Find the measure of angle B. (1 point)

    Angle B = 55 degrees

    -> B= 180-42-83 = 55

    Part II: Use the law of sines to find the length of side a. (2 points)

    a sin 55 = 175/sin 55

    a sin 55= 175 sin 42

    a= 175 sin (0.66913060635)/0.81915204428

    a=117 (0.97856113)/0.8195204428

    a=142.967032967

    a~= 143

    Part III: Use any method to find the length of side c. (2 points)

    175/sin 55 = c/sin 83

    175 sin 83 = c sin 55

    c=175 sin 83/ sin 55

    c= 173.695576537/0.81915204428

    c=212.075702076

    c~= 212 units
