Page 2: Cosine Applications and Advanced Examples

The second page focuses on the practical application of cosine calculations and provides additional examples for solving right triangles. It emphasizes the CAH (Cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse) relationship and its implementation in problem-solving.

Definition: Cos 65° demonstrates the relationship between the adjacent side and hypotenuse in a right triangle

Example: A worked solution showing how to find missing sides using the cosine ratio

Highlight: The systematic approach to identifying and using the correct trigonometric ratio based on the given information

Vocabulary: Adjacent - the side next to the angle in question (not the hypotenuse)

Page 1: SOHCAHTOA Fundamentals and Sin Examples

This page introduces fundamental trigonometric concepts with a focus on sine calculations and practical examples. The content demonstrates how to solve for unknown sides using sine ratios with specific measurements and angles.

Definition: SOHCAHTOA stands for Sine = Opposite/Hypotenuse, Cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse, Tangent = Opposite/Adjacent

Example: A triangle problem using Sin 20° to find an unknown length, resulting in 29.24cm

Highlight: The importance of labeling angles and sides correctly in trigonometric calculations is emphasized

Vocabulary: Opposite - the side opposite to the angle in question, Hypotenuse - the longest side of a right triangle

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

Best app on earth! no words because it’s too good

Just amazing. Let's me revise 10x better, this app is a quick 10/10. I highly recommend it to anyone. I can watch and search for notes. I can save them in the subject folder. I can revise it any time when I come back. If you haven't tried this app, you're really missing out.

This app has made me feel so much more confident in my exam prep, not only through boosting my own self confidence through the features that allow you to connect with others and feel less alone, but also through the way the app itself is centred around making you feel better. It is easy to navigate, fun to use, and helpful to anyone struggling in absolutely any way.

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

In school I was really bad at maths but thanks to the app, I am doing better now. I am so grateful that you made the app.

very reliable app to help and grow your ideas of Maths, English and other related topics in your works. please use this app if your struggling in areas, this app is key for that. wish I'd of done a review before. and it's also free so don't worry about that.

I know a lot of apps use fake accounts to boost their reviews but this app deserves it all. Originally I was getting 4 in my English exams and this time I got a grade 7. I didn’t even know about this app three days until the exam and it has helped A LOT. Please actually trust me and use it as I’m sure you too will see developments.
