    This document uses Pythagoras' theorem to solve a trigonometry problem. It is given that the length of side C is 15cm. It sets the length of side B equal to the unknown length A. Using the formula C^2 = A^2 + B^2, it substitutes the values and solves for A. The calculation shows that A = 15√2/2. Adding 10cm to this value gives the final answer of 20.61m. Checking the calculation by substituting the values back into the Pythagoras theorem formula confirms that the solution is correct.

    ethod 3 Pythagoras Theorem

    Question (a)

    A C=15cm Length A = Length B


    Length C = 15 cm
    45
    Let length B = A
    B

    Using Pythagoras Method, the


    C2 = A2 + B2 Formula
    2 2 2
    15 = A +A C2 = A2 + B2.
    152 = 2A2 Length A equals to Length B. Let the

    2
    152 length B become unknown A. Then the
    A =
    2 equation will become 2A2 equals 152 due
    to the addition of A2. To find the unknown
    152
    A= A2 152 need to divided by 2 .Finally but
    2
    not the least , the unknown A can be find
    152 out by square root the answer.
    A=
    2

    Therefore d metre = A +10

    152
    = + 10
    2
    = 20.61 metre
    Check the answer :
    C2= A2+B2
    2 2
    152 152
    = ( ) +( )
    2 2

    C2= 225

    C=225
    C=15

    152
    The answer of unknown A is confirm is
    2
    Conclusions

    Trigonometry is the study of triangles. It is a branch of mathematics that studies


    relationships involving lengths and angles of triangles. Thus the majority of
    applications relate to right-angle triangles.

    Trigonometry is used in oceanography in calculating the height of tides in oceans.


    There is an enormous number of uses of trigonometry and trigonometric functions.

    Trigonometric functions were among the earliest uses for mathematical tables.
    Learning trigonometry allows students to improve their mathematical skills in an
    environment that allows for focus, practice and repetition. This makes it easier for
    students to overcome difficulties and gain a full knowledge of trigonometry.

    As one of the most important branches of mathematics, trigonometry is something


    that every student should focus on. Great trigonometry skills allow students to work
    out complex angles and dimensions in relatively little time.
