- 3.Write down the exact value of tan 45°.
- 4.Here are four trigonometric ratios of special angles. Write down the one that does not have a value.
- 5.Write down the exact value of cos 45°.
- 6.Write down the exact value of tan 0°.
- 7.Write down the exact value of sin 0°.
- 8.Each of these has an exact value. Write down the one whose value is the greatest.
- 9.Work out the exact value of sin 45° × cos 45°.
- 10.Write down the exact value of sin 45°.
- 11.In triangle ABC, angle ABC = 90° and angle BAC = 30°. The hypotenuse AC = 12 cm. Work out the exact length of AB.
- 12.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.
- 13.A cable supporting a flagpole is anchored to the ground 5 m from the base of the pole. The cable makes an angle of 60° with the ground. Using the exact value of tan 60°, work out the exact height of the flagpole.
- 14.Write down the exact value of tan 60°.
- 15.A right-angled triangle has a hypotenuse of 14 cm. One of the other angles is 30°. Work out the exact length of the side opposite the 30° angle.
