Ratios

A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind. It represents how many times one number contains another. It also represents how small or large one number is compared to the other.

Trigonometric Ratios

Trigonometric ratios give values of trigonometric functions. It always deals with triangles that have one angle measuring 90 degrees. These triangles are right-angled. We take the ratio of sides of these triangles.

Is it true that if you know one side length of an isosceles right triangle, then you know all the side lengths? Explain.
A construction company is hired to build a wheelchair ramp for a restaurant. The ramp connects the handicap parking space (point A) to the top of the porch of the restaurant (point B) that is 4.5 feet higher than the ground level belowit (point C), making a right triangle ABC. The building regulations require the ramp angle to be 8 degrees, meaning angle A must be 8 degrees. 1. On a sheet of paper, draw the right triangle of the ramp and label the sides and angle A. Indicate which side is 4.5 ft. 2. Use the right triangle trigonometry and calculate the length of the ramp (side AB). Show your work on the paper.
