A camera has been set up to record a diver at a diving competition. What is important for those operating the camera is the viewing angle, which is the angle made from the camera to the diver, called 0 in the picture below: Diver 18 ft Camera Notice that the diver stands 8 ft tall with her arms extended, and the diving platform is located 18 ft above the camera. The horizontal distance between the camera and the diving board is called x. If x = 12 ft, find the value of 0, rounded to the nearest tenth of a degree. HINT: Notice there are two other angles, a and B. Knowing these might help.

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.
