Original Prompt

create a Google form exit slip with 3 problems. One using each sine, cosine and tangent to find the missing side of a right triangle

This learning resource focuses on right triangle trigonometry, specifically teaching students how to utilize sine, cosine, and tangent ratios to find missing sides in right triangles. The document begins with clear definitions of the key terms: hypotenuse, opposite, and adjacent sides, along with the mnemonic SOH CAH TOA to aid memorization of the sine, cosine, and tangent relationships. It presents a step-by-step example that illustrates how to select the appropriate trigonometric ratio based on the given angle and side length, followed by multiple practice problems requiring students to apply these skills. Students are guided to show their work systematically, emphasizing the importance of formula selection, substitution, and final calculations. The resource concludes with a self-assessment section for students to rate their confidence in their understanding of trigonometric concepts and a personal reflection prompt to analyze their challenges with the subject.
