Sample Questions

1multiple choice

To find the height of an object using trigonometry, what information do you need?

Show answer

Distance, angle of elevation, and observer's height

To calculate an object's height, you need the distance from the object, the angle of elevation, and the observer's height.

2multiple choice

When calculating height using trigonometry, total height is calculated by:

Show answer

Adding observer's height to calculated height

Total height is found by adding the observer's height to the calculated height from trigonometric calculations.

3multiple choice

In a height calculation scenario, what does BD represent?

Show answer

The height of the student

In the minar-height setup, CD = CB + BD, and BD is equal to AE, which is the height of the student. So BD represents the observer's height, not the distance or the angle. This is used because the student's eye level is above the ground.

4multiple choice

Which trigonometric function relates opposite and adjacent sides?

Show answer

tan

Tangent (tan) is the trigonometric ratio that relates the opposite side to the adjacent side in a right-angled triangle.
