Alaina's Reflection

This week was pretty easy, I think. This week, we learned to use trig functions to find the measurements of the sides and angles of an isosceles triangles.
What happened to chapter 8, by the way?

1. drop down from the top of the triangle to create the altitude and two right triangles.
2. divide the base in half to give you the base measurement of both right triangles.
3. to find you altitude, your newly found leg, you would use the Pythagorean Theorem.
4. to find the angle measures, you would use trig inverses. (sin^-1, cos^-1, and tan^-1)

As far as things that I don't understand, there isn't much. Actually, I can't think of anything at the moment that I don't understand that has to do with Trig. The test on Thursday was pretty easy, mainly because I studied my butt off and had it retaught to me about four times. So I understand pretty much all that I've learned so far concerning Trig.
