    When you say 3/4 and the answer is 0.75, where in the triangle is that reflected, meaning if you could insert that value into the triangle, where would it be?
    So far, I have not seen any teacher show the location of the ratio.

    • @TacoDaddy-mr8ig
      @TacoDaddy-mr8ig 7 днів тому

      Well, 3 divided 4 is 0.75. so if use your calculator, hit arc tan (3÷4) and u should get an answer of 36.8°

    I wish you would have had your calculator available, so that you could have completed the problem WITH THE CORRECT ANGLE as the answer.

  • @jszlauko
    @jszlauko 2 роки тому +1

    Strange that you never applied all that to the initial tree problem. That would have been nice.
    Also, why get into solving an example triangle with the Pythagorean theorem? It would have sufficed to simply say "the tree problem has one angle and the length of only one side, thus we cannot use the Pythagorean theorem as that requires knowing at least two of the three sides."

      Yes, I agree. It would've helped a lot if he had gone back and solved that problem and he does often go off on a tangent ( haha) when he's explaining things. He gets there eventually but takes the long way around.

      @@TacoDaddy-mr8ig My point was that he started giving an example and asked How Tall the Tree is. He gave us the distance out from the base of the tree and the angle to the top but then he went off ON A TANGENT and forgot to actually solve the height. It was like he wound up in the Indonesian archipelago and got blasted by that volcano down there, "SOHCAHTOA".

    Hello, In solving for the angle of the triangle, you said that: "a calculator with trigonometric function buttons was needed or a Table of Values was needed to go any further!"... Why are 👨🏻‍🏫 you always without a 🧮 calculator when, it is necessary for you to have one? And since today is 🎄Christmas day, why didn't you solve the initial problem and determine THE HEIGHT OF THE TREE? As for the rest of the lesson, thank you for sharing!

    Sure it's easy to do on paper with made up numbers but in the field you need that piece of equipment to get that angle You know that piece of equipment that you quickly glossed over.

    • @thomasharding1838
      @thomasharding1838 6 місяців тому

      We don't need the name of a theodolite to solve the problem. Might need it to buy one so you can measure the angle, though. But it would have been nice to see the actual "asked" question solved.

    Are you sure you don't need to use spherical trigonometry to find the height of the tree because the earth is a ball?

  • @V1RT8
    @V1RT8 2 роки тому +1

    I have another way to measure the height of the tree…
    I stand near the tree, my back facing the sun and I place a stone in front of me, whose distance has to be the same as my height. When my shadow will reach the stone, the tree’s shadow will be equal to its height. It takes a little longer and it requires a few beers to kill the time, it it’s pretty accurate.
