Lesson Topic
special right triangles- rules
Lesson Outline
Outline the first rule in determining the length of the legs or hypotenuse in a 30-6-90 right triangle.
The leg opposite the 30deg. angle is S, the hypotenuse is 2S, and the leg opposite the 60 deg. angle is Sxsquare root of 3. Three problems were given to solve. In #1, the leg opposite the 30deg angle was given and the hypotenuse and second leg measure calculated. In the second problem, the hypotenuse is given and the 2 legs calculated. In the third problem, the segment opposite the 60 deg angle was given and the hypotenuse and 2 legs calculated.

Lesson Comments
The first 2 problems were pretty straight forward and Sam calculated quickly. The third problem involved much higher algebraic calculations, and after a short reviewing for Sam, she was able to complete the calculations easily
