Carom Maths provides this resource for teachers and students of A Level mathematics.

A triangle can have more than one centre and this presentation demonstrates the application of vectors, in three different situations, to show that the circumcentre, the centroid and the orthocentre of a triangle are indeed...

In this resource the side lengths of a triangle are given. The challenge is to find the ratio of the product of each of the tangents, divided by the sum of each of the tangents.

Each student worksheet contains a different triangle, but the answers all have something in common.

The solution involves...

Produced by the Spode Group as part of the A-level mathematics support series, this booklet aims to show the practical importance of trigonometric functions. The booklet contains five case studies.

This short task contains two questions on applying trigonometry.

The topics covered are:

• Linking sine, cosine and tangent
• Using Pythagoras to determine a length in a triangle and then give the tangent of an angle in surd form
• Using the Pythagorean identity sin2(x) + cos2(x) = 1...

This resource contains twelve problems requiring students to explore the properties of the functions of sine, cosine and tangent. Students explain which is the odd one out, state which functions can be represented by which graph, devise questions which give a certain set of solutions and state whether statements...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of trigonometry, often used in the field of engineering. They include the trigonometric ratios, using Pythagoras’ theorem and working with the sine and cosine rules.

Comprehensive notes, with clear descriptions, for each resource are provided, together...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of trigonometry and are suitable for students studying mathematics at A Level, as well as those students for whom mathematics is an integral part of their course. Some of the topics covered include the trigonometric ratios, using Pythagoras’ theorem, cosecant,...

This RISP activity gives students four properties - one side is 3cm, one angle is 90 degrees, one side is 4cm and one angle is thirty degrees. Students are required to find as many triangles as they can which contain any three of these four properties. Once the triangles have been found, students are asked to find...

This sub-collection of resources from the Virtual Text Book collection contains five resources designed for use on an interactive whiteboard to aid the teaching and learning of a variety of topics in ‘Trigonometry'. Each resource is an interactive Excel worksheet to encourage teacher-student interaction. The topics...

The first of two RISP activities, Radians and Degrees, students are set the task of finding an angle whose sine value is the same whether measured in radians or degrees....

This collection of interactive excel sheets looks at a circle of radius 1 and the corresponding values generated for cosθ and sinθ.

The first interactive sheet illustrates that for the unit circle, X = cosθ and Y =...
