Standards Addressed:
G.GSR.6.1 Explain that by similarity, side ratios in right triangles are properties of the angles in the triangle, leading to definitions of trigonometric ratios for acute angles.

G.GSR.6.3 use trigonometric ratios and the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for sides and angles of right triangles in applied problems.

Learning Targets /Success Criteria:
--I can solve problems involving right triangles using the Pythagorean Theorem.
--I can use the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem to prove that a triangle is a right triangle
--I can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find missing sides of triangles.
--I can create correct trigonometric ratios using sine, cosine and tangent.
--I can use trigonometric ratios to find missing sides in right triangles.
