Cos B = 0.49
B = 𝒄𝒐𝒔−𝟏 𝟎. 𝟒𝟗
B = 60.66°
Tan C = 1.8
C = 𝒕𝒂𝒏−𝟏𝟏. 𝟖
C = 60.95 °
Sin D = 0.256
D = 𝒔𝒊𝒏−𝟏𝟎. 𝟐𝟓𝟔
D = 14.83 °
Tan E = 0.7251
E = 𝒕𝒂𝒏−𝟏𝟎. 𝟕𝟐𝟓𝟏
E = 35.95 °
6. The Trigonometric River
Your loved one lives on the other side of the river.
Due to strict border protocol brought by pandemic,
you cannot see each other just yet. You decided to
send her a love letter through email. Because she’s
an avid trigonometric fan, you wanted to impress
her by applying trigonometry in your love letter.
Thus, you wanted to solve the width of the river
that separates you from her.
7. Let us Illustrate…
On your side of the bank, you
found a log that is 5 meters long,
then using your protractor, you
found that the angle between the
end of the log and her side of the
bank is 75° (as shown in the
figure).
Now solve for x which is the
width of the river. 5 meters
75°

16. Draw and Solve!
A ladder 6 meters long leans
against the wall of a building. If the
foot of the ladder makes an angle of
54° with the ground, how far is the
base of the ladder from the wall?
17. Draw and Solve!
A 5-meter ladder leans against the
wall of a house. The foot of the
ladder on the ground is 2.6 meters
from the wall. What angle does the
ladder make with the wall?
18. Draw and Solve!
A girl who is on the second floor of their
house watches her cat lying on the
ground. The angle between her eye level
and her line of sight is 36°. If the girl is
3 meters above the ground,
approximately how far is the cat from the
house?

an angle of 65° with the ground, how far is the base of the ladder from the wall?
2. Drake is flying a kite. He is holding the end of the string at a distance of 1.5 m above the
ground. If the string is 18 m long and makes an angle of 42° with the horizontal, how high
is the kite above the ground?
3. A 10-meter post was unearthed and leaned on the tree. The foot of the post is 4.6
meters from the base of the tree. What angle does the post make with the tree?
