How do you use Trigonometric Ratios to solve Real-world problems

Explanation:

Obviously, the way you use trig ratios will depend on the problem. The problems you see in algebra and trig courses are a good sampling of the kinds of problems you run across in the real world. Some of them include ...

  finding height or widths based on a measure and an angle (SOH CAH TOA)

  finding areas based on side lengths and an angle (area formula)

  finding unknown sides or angles of a triangle (law of sines/cosines)

  finding bearing and/or distance (spherical trig relations, law of cosines)

As with solving problems of any kind, you choose the appropriate formula(s), fill in the known values, and solve for the unknown values. Sometimes a real-world problem will require solution of intermediate problems before the answer to the original question is found.
