Mathematics PPT On Applications of Trigonometry in Daily Life Submitted By: Nirbhay Bedi - Class: +2 Non Medical - Submitted To: Ms Jatinder Mam

Trigonometry is used in many applications in daily life. It is used to calculate heights and distances, in architecture to design buildings, in astronomy to measure distances to stars and planets, in geology to calculate bedding angles, in navigation to determine distances at sea, and in oceanography to measure tide heights. Trigonometry employs trigonometric functions like sine, cosine and tangent and right angle trigonometry.

Introduction
Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies
relationships between the sides and angles of
triangles , particularly right triangles.
It is not only involved triangles but also involved
behind how sound and light move.
The principle Trigonometric functions are sine, cosine
and tangent.
It is very useful in the world of architecture, geology,
astronomy etc.
Trigonometric Function
Application of Trigonometry

Find height and distance.


In the architecture.
In the astronomy.
In the Geology.
In the navigation purpose.
In the oceanography.
Height and distances
Trigonometry is used to find the height, distance and
depth of anything easily by certain fundamentals.
Angle of elevation: It the angle made with the
horizontal when the observer raises his eyes position.
Angle of depression: It the angle made with the
horizontal when the observer lowers his eyes position.
It's a very easy technique. Demonstration

Sinα = perpendicular/hypotenuse
Sin23= 2500/x
X=6410 m
Architecture
Architects use trigonometry to describe the
shapes and forms of a building using
numerical equations. These equations are
translated easily by any contractor to
reproduce the exact building the architect
had in mind.
Architects use trigonometry to calculate
structural load, roof slopes, ground surfaces
and many other, aspects, including sun
shading a light angles.
Architecture remains one of the most
important sectors of our society as they
plan the design of buildings and ensure that
they are able to withstand pressures from
inside.
Astronomy
Trigonometry was used in astronomy since ancient time.
Trigonometry is used to measure the distance to nearby stars.
In 240 B.C, a mathematician named Eratosthenes discovered the
radius if the earth using trigonometry and geometry.
In 2001, a group of European astronomers did an experiment to
find the distance of Venus from the Sun about 10,50,00,000 Km.
Astronomers use the method of parallax, or the movement of the
star against the background as we orbit the sun, to discover new
information about galaxies.
Geology
Trigonometry is used in
geology to estimate the true
dip of bedding angles.
Calculating the true dip
allows geologists to
determine the slope stability.
Although not often regarded
as an integral profession,
geologists contribute to the
safety of many building
foundations.
Any adverse bedding
conditions can result in slope
failure and the entire
collapse of a structure.
Navigation and Oceanography

It is used in It is used in
navigation to find the oceanography in
distance of the shore calculating the height of
from a point in the tides in ocean.
