CHAPTER-16 Basic Trigonometry

A complete lesson on finding an angle in a right-angled triangle using trig ratios. Designed to come after pupils have been introduced to the ratios sin, cos and tan, and have investigated how the ratios vary. Please see my other resources for complete lessons on these topics. Activities included: Starter: Provided with the graph of y=sinx, pupils estimate sinx for different values of x and vice-versa. Main: Slides to introduce use of scientific calculators to find accurate values for angles or ratios. Examples of the basic method of finding an angle given two sides. Includes graphs to reinforce what is happening. Quick questions for pupils to try and provided feedback. A worksheet of questions with a progression in difficulty. Starts with standard questions, then moves on to more challenging ones (eg finding the smallest angle in a non-right-angled, isosceles triangle). Plenary: A final question to check pupils’ understanding, but also with a combinations/logic element. Printable worksheets and answers included. Please review if you buy as any feedback is appreciated!

24 questions finding upper and lower bounds using trigonometry to find lengths and angles in right-angled triangle. Answers included.

This is the last lesson in the series of lessons on all non-right angled traingle trigonometry. Students are presented with problems where they have to apply multiple trig rules they’ve learned over the last few lessons (area rule, sine rule, cosine rule) in order to solve multistep problems. All answers are provided on the slides

This is designed for a year 9 class. The idea is to have a break down list of what to do with trigonometry questions and then practise each step as it comes. Worked examples/your turn to build confidence.

This interactive PowerPoint is designed to be used over 2 to 3 lessons for teaching and contains worksheets/activities for learners. This resource comes with two PowerPoints (Teacher and student). The teacher PowerPoint has interactive functions and has answers to all questions; also every slide has an invisible protective sheet preventing you from accidentally clicking to another slide making this PowerPoint ideal for teaching a lesson. The student PowerPoint does not have answers so it’s great for printing out slides and worksheets for learners. Every question has its own answer button allowing you to select the answers you want to display. This provides immediate feedback and can be used to differentiate work. Furthermore, all boxes with a brown background contain a function, click on them to activate the function. Level of work: GCSE level 4-5 Duration: 2-3 lessons Learning objectives: Solve simple equations containing trigonometry operations. Use the three trigonometric ratios to calculate angles and lengths of right angle triangles. Use trigonometry to solve worded problems and exam questions. PowerPoint contains 15 slides: slide 1: Content page with information and links to all slides in the PowerPoint slide 2: Learning objectives slide 3: Crossword activity to learn key words slides 4-6: Three worked examples slides 7-12: Worksheets with progressive questions and interactive answers. slides 13: Questions for class/group discussion. (excellent for paired/group work) slides 14-15: Exam style questions with interactive answers Similar resources can be purchased from my shop in TES resources.

A memory-jogger for students who have recently covered basic trigonometry. How to determine whether to use Pythagoras, and how to use SOHCAHTOA. The sine and cosine rule are not included at this stage.

Two or three lessons worth of work on trigonometry on right angled triangles.

A collection of seven questions that use the basic trigonometric principles, but in a worded problem context. Students will need to draw out the problem, work step-by-step to solve these questions. nb: One of the questions involves an Arc calculation.

3 lessons, taking students through a step by step process of what is a trig ratio, to how to what buttons to use on a calculator, to problem solving. Includes; keywords, why we use trig, correct labeling of sides, using SOH/CAH/TOA and related formulae. Plus worked examples, practice questions, exam style questions, and a separate lesson on Angles of Elevation and Depression. Objectives: To be able to use a calculator to find trigonometric ratios. (grade 5) To be able to recognise which trigonometric ratios to use. (grade 5) To be able to use trigonometric ratios to solve problems. (grade 5/6)

A complete lesson on using and applying Trigonometry to right angled triangles which is suitable for the new curriculum. Pupils are given the chance to master the fluency of this topic aswell as work on reasoning and problem solving tasks. All tasks are differentiated to 3 levels all with solutions and offer lots of consolidation as well as alot of challenge. Can be used with KS3/KS4.

A set of 20 worksheets containing match-up quizzes about the most common trigonometric functions of the “notable angles”. For example: Cos(90°), Tan(60°)…Sin(π)… Each worksheet has 10 pairs to match, there is also a subset of “tricky” quizzes where one item is an “intruder” and must be identified. Why ? Because trigonometry is a building block for physics and geometry. Also, advanced math courses like calculus require trigonometry proficiency. Summary: File format: Printable PDFs Worksheets: 20 Topic : trigonometry (the notable angles with radians and degrees) Difficulty: easy Don’t hesitate to contact me for further details, thanks.

Basic Pythagoras and Trigonometry Homework

This is an excellent whole lesson on Bearings with the Cosine Rule with resources to teach a subject that is often done poorly in exams. The lesson involves using understanding bearings but also how often it is incorporated with trigonometry and therefore a good existing level of trigonometry is required. It comes after a lesson on Bearings with SOHCAHTOA, this is the next more advanced level. This lesson is ready to go, with no prep required. It is also great for home learning and flip learning. 18-slide presentation + supplementary resources. The lesson includes: Starter (linked to angle rules) Learning objectives (differentiated) Keywords Key Rules and Notation Fantastic Teaching Slides (with lots of custom animation) Great Examples to follow Worksheet (with answer key) Plenary Bonus Poster (for classroom display) All LESSONS on Geometry in one MEGA BIG Bundle : Geometry - All Lessons For any issues, please email outstandingresourceshelp@gmail.com and we will aim to respond within 48 hours.

This resource demonstrates, step-by-step, how to use ‘SOH CAH TOA’, with a question covering each (three slides in total). During another year of tutoring, I have constantly been reminded of how so many students struggle with the basics. These basics obviously provide the foundation to move onto more complex topics and knowledge of them is absolutely essential in building confidence and belief in a student’s ability in the subject. Educational establishments must begin to realise this and ensure that the foundations are absolutely secure and solidly embedded before moving on.

“In the small town of Raven’s Hollow, a mysterious mansion stands abandoned on the outskirts. The locals speak of a dark history surrounding the mansion, with tales of a gruesome murder that took place within its walls. Curiosity draws a group of friends to enter the mansion, where they find themselves trapped in a series of interconnected rooms, each holding clues to unravel the secrets of the past.” The story runs alongside tasks to test students’ knowledge and understanding of trigonometry. The escape room is interactive. Students can move objects and click on them to reveal clues. No handouts are required but scrap paper is useful as some clues need to be written down and rearranged. There are gentle hints at the top of each page but students should click around the whole room to move or reveal clues. It is important clues are solved as they are required to pass to the next page. The escape room is a great end-of-topic task to check student´s understanding in a novel way. You will receive a PDF document on purchase containing the website, password and answers. No email addresses are needed to play. No google account needed.
