Labeling Right Triangle Trigonometry

A hawk sitting on a tree branch spots a mouse on the ground 15 feet from the base of the tree.  The hawk swoops down toward the mouse at an angle of 30 degrees. What is the distance from the tree branch to the mouse? 

• 7.5 ft 

• 15 ft 

• 26 ft 

• 30 ft 

A 16 foot ladder leans against a building.  If the angle the ladder makes with the ground is 68°, how high up the building does the ladder reach?

• 39.6

• 6.0

• 14.8

• 13.6

To the nearest whole degree.

• 66^°

• 24^°

• 22^°

• ^37°

Solve the right triangle. Round measures of sides to the nearest hundredth and angles to the nearest degree.

• <B = 39^o, AB = 11.58, AC = 7.29

• <B = 39^o, AB = 7.29, AC = 11.58

• <B = 129^o, AB = 11.58, AC = 7.29

• <B = 129^o, AB = 7.29, AC = 11.58

Solve the right triangle.

• <A = 33.7^o, <C = 56.3^o, AC = 5.59

• <A = 56.3^o, <C = 33.7^o, AC = 5.59

• <A = 33.7^o, <C = 56.3^o, AC = 9.01

• <A = 56.3^o, <C = 33.7^o, AC = 9.01

What is the length of x in this 45-45-90 triangle?

• 4√2

• 4

• 8

• 4√3

Solve for x. 

• 10√3

• 15

• 5√3

• 15√2

Choose the correct ratio.

• sin(37)=x/14

• cos(37)=x/14

• tan(37)=x/14

• sin(37)=14/x
