Valerie's Math Class

Combination WS to solidfy understanding by combining all trig triangle problems. This includes problems using SOH CAH TOA, Law of Sines, Law of Cosines, and Special Right Triangles. Students pick which method works best. The final problem is one triangle where students have to find all 3 sides and 3 angles (with 1 side, 1 angle given). WORKSHEET INCLUDES answers at the bottom for students to make sure they are on the right track and KEY INCLUDED! Great way to solidify their knowledge.

Half sheet (to save paper) - First page is guided notes and three examples of the three ways to find the equation (1- given two points, 2-give slope and a point, 3-give x or y-intercept(s)). The back page is practice. KEY Included for the back page.

I used this lesson after my investigation to go from making 6 ratios to making 1. Then we did notes on finding side length given an angle and a side length. The back is practice doing both types with key included. Great lesson- most successful one I have taught!
