Real-life applications of trigonometry |
2011-04-10 |
|
From Angela:
I am a teacher and I desire to show the students the real-life
application of trigonometry.
Of course, one application is to use a clinometer and find the heights of
various things. However, I am trying to provide a real-life scenario
which also answers the question "why" the height of the object needs
to be found. Not being an engineer, I do not know the specifics
examples, but I want my information to be accurate and my example to
to be as real-life as possible. I mean, I can say that someone wants to know the height of a flagpole;
however, I also want to answer the question "why" they want to know
this. I would like to give an actual real-life scenario. Do you know of some?
Thanks!

From Tiffany:
I was wondering if you have any real-life uses of the pythagorean theorem that you use in your everyday life.
