For numbers 8-10, please refer to this problem. You are watching a hot-air balloon that was 300 feet from you when it started rising from the ground. Assume the height of the balloon is x and 0 is the angle of elevation from the ground where you are standing up to the balloon. 8. Solve for x in terms of 0. 9. What is the angle of elevation when the hot-air-balloon is 500 feet above the ground? 10. How high above the ground is the balloon when the angle of elevation is 80°?
Ratios
A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind. It represents how many times one number contains another. It also represents how small or large one number is compared to the other.
Trigonometric Ratios
Trigonometric ratios give values of trigonometric functions. It always deals with triangles that have one angle measuring 90 degrees. These triangles are right-angled. We take the ratio of sides of these triangles.
