ax-Similar-Signs-thumb

Standard ACMMG223

Use similarity to investigate the constancy of the sine, cosine and tangent ratios for a given angle in right-angled triangles

Activity: Similar Signs

Students investigate the ratio between the opposite side and hypotenuse of a right angled triangle as the triangle is dilated. Once students identify the outcome they explore changes to the angle and estimate ratios for specific angles.

ACMMG223_just_cos

Standard ACMMG223

Use similarity to investigate the constancy of the sine, cosine and tangent ratios for a given angle in right-angled triangles

Activity: Just Cos

Students investigate the ratio between the adjacent side and hypotenuse of a right angled triangle as the triangle is dilated. Once students identify the outcome they explore changes to the angle and estimate ratios for specific angles.
Note: Students should complete the “Similar Signs” activity first.
