Monday HW

Tonight, please complete the 4 word problems provided in class (or below)!

Great work today everyone! I loved seeing you all working hard and helping each other out! Keep it up!

Tomorrow we'll start a new section, 4.2--and start learning about the unit circle!

And don't forget--test Friday! 

Here's your homework in case you lost it (or were out)!

Directions: Each question is worth 3 points: 1 point for drawing the correct picture, 1 point for setting up an equation using the proper trigonometric function, and 2 points for finding the correct answer (with units!!!!). In your picture you should label the given sides/angles, and unknown sides/angles. Good Luck!
1. A boy flying a kite lets out 300 feet of string which makes an angle of 38with the ground. Assuming that the string is straight, how high above the ground is the kite?

2. A straight road to the top of a hill is 2500 feet long and has a 12angle of elevation. Find the height of the hill.

3. A 25-foot ladder leans against a building. The ladder’s base is 13.5 feet from the building. Find the angle which the ladder makes with the ground.


4. During one of your many snow days, you built a ramp to sled off of. The ramp is 10 feet long and 3 feet high. What is the angle of elevation of the ramp?
