8. Overall Dionne's client is happy with her design, but the client wonders if the distance between the refrigerator and the sink could be shortened to 1.35 meters if the other lengths and angle measures were allowed to remain the same. Is this possible? Explain why or why not.
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.

![The client says that she would like her appliances to be closer together in the new design. Dionne
creates an island kitchen design where the distance between the stove and the sink is 1.3 meters
and the distance between the sink and the refrigerator is 2.2 meters. The refrigerator makes a
31.9° angle with the stove.
5. Sketch a diagram of Dionne's design. Be sure to label all the known information.
6. Which law should you use to find the measure of the angle that the stove makes with the sink?
Explain your choice.
7. Find all the missing measurements for the triangle that you sketched in question 5. Is more
than one work triangle possible with these measurements? If so, sketch and label them
completely. If not, explain why not.
