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.

Chapter 2.4, Problem 61E

Height of Mt. Everest The highest mountain peak in the world is Mt. Everest, located in the Himalayas. The height of this enormous mountain was determined in 1856 by surveyors using trigonometry long before it was first climbed in 1953. This difficult measurement had to be done from a great distance. At an altitude of 14,545 ft on a different mountain, the straight-line distance to the peak of Mt. Everest is 27.0134 mi and its angle of elevation is θ = 5.82°. (Source: Dunham, W., The Mathematical Universe, John Wiley and Sons.)

Chapter 2.4, Problem 61E, 61. Height of Mt. Everest The highest mountain peak in the world is Mt. Everest, located in the

(a) Approximate the height (in feet) of Mt. Everest.

(b) In the actual measurement. Mt. Everest was over 100 mi away and the curvature of Earth had to be taken into account. Would the curvature of Earth make the peak appear taller or shorter than it actually is?
