Domain - Similarity, Right Triangles, and Trigonometry
Cluster - Define trigonometric ratios and solve problems involving right triangles.
[MII.G-SRT.C.7] - Explain and use the relationship between the sine and cosine of complementary angles.
- Cosine
A trigonometric function that for an acute angle is the ratio between a leg adjacent to the angle when the angle is considered part of a right triangle and the hypotenuse. - Sine (of an acute angle)
The trigonometric function that for an acute angle is the ratio between the leg opposite the angle when the angle is considered part of a right triangle and the hypotenuse.

Prove theorems about triangles. Theorems include: measures of interior angles of a triangle sum to 180°; base angles of isosceles triangles are congruent, and conversely prove a triangle is isosceles; the segment joining midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half the length; the medians of a triangle meet at a point.
[MII.G-SRT.C.6] -
Understand that by similarity, side ratios in right triangles are properties of the angles in the triangle, leading to definitions of trigonometric ratios for acute angles.
[MII.G-SRT.C.8] -
Use trigonometric ratios and the Pythagorean Theorem to solve right triangles in applied problems.*
[PC.F-TF.A.3] -
(+) Use special triangles to determine geometrically the values of sine, cosine, tangent for π/3, π/4 and π/6, and use the unit circle to express the values of sine, cosine, and tangent for π-x, π + x, and 2π - x in terms of their values for x, where x is any real number.
