Every Pupil is expected to have basic knowledge and skills in

PRE-REQUISITES # similarity of triangles
& # four basic operations like +,-,x and ÷
SKILLS # properties of triangles, right angled triangle, boudhayana theorem(pythaogoras
theorem. # analysing the identities.

Learning Outcomes

After Completion of this lesson every student will be able to

# establish the ratio between the sides of a right angled triangle.
# define the trigonometric ratios and solve sums related with them
# find the trigonometric ratios of some specific angles and solve sums involving these ratios.
# establish the trigonometric identities and utilize them in solving sums.
# utilize the knowledge of trigonometry appropriately and effectively in real life situations.

Teaching Learning Process

 INTRODUCTION /INDUCTION Experience & Reflection
Teacher introduces the concept of Trigonometry by drawing their attention towards certain
properties of triangles especially right angled triangle. Teacher tries to make children guess the
need of trigonometry in real life situations. Later teacher introduces trigonometric ratios

# Pupils will recall their knowledge in the

properties of triangles like pythagoras theorem
etc and will apply that knowledge here in
knowing the new concept of trigonometry

# Students will experience the usage of concept

of trigonometry in real life situations.
