What is the area formula for a right triangle that gives you the altitude? What is the area formula for a triangle with two sides and an angle in between?
A= 1/2 x Base x Height
A=1/2 x A x B x Sin C
or

What are the 3 trig functions and what are they equal to (aka what is their ratio formulas)?
Sin<=Opp/Hyp
Cos<=Adj/Hyp
Tan<=Opp/Adj
What is the Law of Sine formula(s) and explain the difference?
a/Sin A = b/SinB = c/SinC to find a missing side
SinA/a = SinB/b =SinC/c to find a missing angle
What is the law of Cosine formula?
a2=b2+c2-2(b)(c)CosA
or
(Missing or Opposite side)2=(side1)2+(side2)2-2(side1)(side2)Cos(<)
How do we denote (aka write) the inverses for the 3 trig functions?

If I'm given two sides of a right triangle and I need to find the third missing side, I should use.....
The Pythagorean Theorem!!!
Aka a2 + b2 = c2
Find the Area? Round answer to nearest tenth!
A= (1/2) x (5.2) x (7.1) x Sin (83) = 18.3 cm2
Find X using the Pythagorean Theorem
62 + 82 = X2
10=X
Find side CB (aka side a)? Round answer to nearest hundredth.
a/sin35 =68/sin120
a=45.04
Find the missing side. Round to the nearest tenth.
X2= 282 + 222 - 2(28)(22)Cos(97)
X=37.7 cm
