- 1.Work out the exact value of tan 30° + tan 30°.
- 2.A ramp rises at 30° to the horizontal. Its sloping surface is 4.8 m long. Safety rules say the vertical rise of a ramp must be no more than 2.5 m. Work out how far below that limit the rise of this ramp is.
- 3.Write down the exact value of tan 0°.
- 4.Work out the exact value of sin 30° + cos 60°.
- 5.Put sin 30°, tan 30° and cos 30° in order of size, starting with the smallest.
- 6.Work out the exact value of (sin 30°)² + (cos 30°)².
- 7.A tent's sloping side makes an angle of 45° with the ground. The sloping side is 3√2 m long. Using the exact value of sin 45°, work out the exact height of the tent.
- 8.Write down the exact value of sin 0°.
- 9.Each of these has an exact value. Write down the one whose value is the greatest.
- 10.A zip-wire is fixed at an angle of 60° to the horizontal ground. The zip-wire is 12 m long. Using the exact value of cos 60°, work out the exact horizontal distance it covers.
- 11.Here are four trigonometric ratios of special angles. Write down the one that does not have a value.
