Medal + Fan :) 1. Draw a 30-60-90 triangle. Label all angle measures and side relationships. Using the side relationships from the figure, show that the following trigonometric identities hold true for the given angles:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[A) \tan 60 degrees \frac{ \sin 60 degrees }{ \cos 60 degrees }\] \[B) Sin ^{2} (30 degrees) + \cos ^{2} (30 degrees) = 1\]

@tester97

OpenStudy (tester97):

sorry im not good with trig

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know anyone who is? This is my geometry study guide and I dont remember learning this.

OpenStudy (tester97):

No i dont but if you are in connections academy im sure you can go and watch the live lesson recordings

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am not in connections actually. But thanks @tester97

i can prove both...... see........\[\sin x=\frac{ ooposite side of x }{ hypotenuse}\] \[\cos x \frac{ adjacent side of x }{ hypotenuse }\] \[\tan x =\frac{ opposite side of x }{ adjacent side of x }\] multiply by hypotense and divide by hypotenuse,we get, \[\tan x=\frac{ opposite side of x }{ adjacent side of x }\times \frac{ hypotenuse }{ hypotenuse } = \frac{ \frac{ opposite side of x }{ hypotenuse } }{ \frac{ adjacent side of x }{ hypotenuse } } =\frac{ \sin x }{ \cos x }\] hence proved

@aaryaancoool is that the answer oooor?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yupp

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2nd proof \[k ^{^{2}} + n ^{2}=b ^{^{2}}\ this is the pyth. theorem...... k=opposite side to x,n=djecent side of x b=hypotenuse divide the eqn by b\[\sin x ^{2}+ \cos x ^{^{2}}=1\] proved

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait but what does that have to do with the 30-60-90 triangle? @aaryaancoool

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pythagoras theorem is applied for a right angled triaangle,my friend,& i believe 30-60-90 triangle is a right angle tiangle....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can consider as any angle you have to work out....
