• Calculate the value of expressions containing trigonometric ratios.

Outcomes

By the end of this course you will be able to:

• Define and use the trigonometric ratios of  cosθ,  sinθ, and  tanθ.
• Calculate the value of expressions containing trigonometric ratios with a calculator.
• Calculate the value of expressions containing trigonometric ratios without a calculator.
• Work with trigonometric tables.
• Solve problems in 2 dimensions involving angles of elevation and depression
