As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.

Trigonometry -- Right triangles

pine smelt
#

Yes

pallid heath
#

ok

#

do you know the SOH-CAH-TOA mnemonic

pine smelt
#

nope

pallid heath
#

do you know trigonometry at all

pine smelt
#

no my school gave me this packet

pallid heath
#

so, your school chose to teach you NOTHING about trigonometry at all, and instead you just got hit with this packet and told to figure it out yourself.

#

is that what happened?

pine smelt
#

Exactly

pallid heath
#

ok

The page you showed has an example on how to solve the problem on the top.

pallid heath

fickle plover
#

Do you have work to show?
