[color=#000000]This applet accompanies the [/color][i][color=#0000ff]Right Triangle Trigonometry: Intro[/color][/i][color=#000000] activity packet you received at the beginning of class today. Use this applet to help you complete the guiding questions in this activity. [/color]

[color=#980000][b]Key Question: [/b][/color] [br][br][color=#000000]Hopefully, you noticed that when you keep the blue angle fixed and move only the white vertices, the value of each ratio never changes (even though the side lengths do)! [/color][color=#ff00ff][i]Why does this occur? [/i] Explain! [br][/color][color=#0000ff]What I noticed was that the greater the value of the blue angle, the greater the ratio. The smaller the value of the blue angle, the smaller the ratio. I can infer that the ratio will not change unless the value of the blue angle changes. [/color]
