Students learn how to calculate unknown lengths in right-angled triangles using Sin, Cos and Tan.  As learning progresses they are challenged to apply other facts about triangles to solve more complex problems.

Differentiated Learning Objectives

• All students should be able to calculate the length of a right angled triangle using the Sine and Cosine functions.
• Most students should be able to calculate the length of a right angled triangle using the Sine, Cosine and Tangent functions.
• Some students should be able to calculate the length of a polygon edge by considering its right-angled triangular components.
