Overview

Year 10 Trigonometry covers the fundamental principles of measurement with triangles as described in the Australian curriculum. In Trigonometry, students become better able to select and apply rules and processes to find unknown angles and side lengths. These skills are fundamental to solve problems involving bearings and angles of elevation and depression.
