00:03 Okay , for the example of trigonometry I have here
00:06 , I'm going to be dealing with a roof .
00:08 Okay , because it's a nice example which you may
00:12 probably use in the future . Okay , well this
00:16 roof , it spans 5200 . It also has these
00:20 eave overhangs on each side of 600 . This roof
00:25 has a pitch of 23°. . So things which we're
00:28 going to be wanting to find out with this room
00:31 . First off , it's going to be height that
00:34 this roof goes to . So draw a little triangle
00:37 which deals with this triangle from there to their just
00:42 a very approximate sort of triangle . Okay then ,
00:46 I'll move this . Okay , This will be the
00:47 first triangle we're going to deal with . Okay .
00:55 That it has the height that we're trying to find
01:01 . In addition we have to work , we know
01:03 the actual air at the length down here . It's
01:06 going to be half of how much this roof actually
01:08 spans . So 5200 divided by two is 2000 600
01:15 . Okay , that will be the first thing we're
01:16 trying to find out , the next thing we're going
01:18 to try and find out is this rafter length there
01:23 ? Okay , this is a right angle triangle .
01:31 Yeah , with this right angle triangle , it will
01:34 be a little bit different in its dimensions from the
01:37 last one we drew . And I'll show you how
01:39 in just a second , I'll move it first ,
01:43 we'll move it down to here where we'll deal with
01:45 that second as well . Okay , The dimensions of
01:49 this , as I said , a slightly different angle
01:51 here is the same 23° in the pitch . This
01:54 is the length . We're trying to find this one
01:57 down . The bottom here is going to be slightly
01:59 different because this time it includes , it has to
02:02 take into account the eaves . Okay , the rafter
02:05 actually runs down right over the eaves . So I
02:07 have to include this 600,000,000 2600 plus 600 3000 200
02:16 . Okay , cool . So these are the two
02:19 things we're going to find . As you may remember
02:22 from the last video we had on trigonometry , there
02:25 was a couple of things we have to do .
02:27 The first thing to do was labeled asides . The
02:30 next thing we have to do . I was working
02:33 at the trig function that was sign because what time
02:42 then we had to substitute in values . Obviously it
02:46 nice and short while I'm writing here and then we
02:51 have to calculate , you know the way that we
02:54 label decides if you remember the side opposite . The
02:59 actual angle here was known as the opposite . So
03:02 I'll just put that in the officer alongside the high
03:06 pot news . We're not using that , but we're
03:08 dealing with the adjacent . Okay . So a label
03:12 decides for this one here . Then we have to
03:15 work out whether we're using sign cause or tan .
03:17 I had my way of remembering this with some old
03:20 hags . We can't always act . They're old .
03:27 Yeah . Right now we're going to be looking for
03:30 the function but uses both the opposite and the adjacent
03:37 so that this one is going to be tanned .
03:41 So I'll write that down . Tan feeder equals the
03:46 opposite over the adjacent . Remember feta is the angle
03:50 . So I'll rewrite this out by substituting the values
03:54 10 ft are tan 23 degrees equals the opposite the
04:00 opposite . Exa Yeah . And the adjacent is 2000
04:06 600 . All right . In the last video also
04:11 showed you how I now work . What exes .
04:15 Okay . The way I would do that as I
04:18 would write out this thing which I wrote in the
04:20 last video . Three legal 6/2 . Now , if
04:22 you're not sure this step , you may want to
04:24 review the last video . Okay . But for the
04:28 people who have done this , if we're looking XIA
04:32 X lines up with the six here , Okay ,
04:34 What would I do two and three to get six
04:37 times . So X is going to be These two
04:40 times . So these two here and two times 10
04:47 , Time to 2600 and they're equals , he's my
04:53 calculator 23 . 10 times 2 , 600 equals 11
05:05 oh three , rounded up to 114 . Actually ,
05:09 I'll do that now . 114 No matter . So
05:16 , that's the hard work there . The next thing
05:20 I was working at was the rafter . Okay .
05:23 So I've got my triangle down here again . The
05:27 first thing I do is label the sides . All
05:29 right . So , we're not dealing with the opposite
05:32 here . We're going to be dealing with the high
05:33 pot news and the adjacent . The next thing I
05:36 had to do was work out the economic function .
05:38 Okay . The one that deals with I am ,
05:42 which is because okay . So rather than cause freedom
05:48 equals a over age . Okay . We're going to
05:55 continue this deadly actually cause 23 degrees because the adjacent
06:03 , Which is 3000 200 over the high point news
06:10 . Which is why . Okay , I'll write my
06:12 three equals six over to We're dealing with . We're
06:18 trying to find out the one here . Why ?
06:21 Why this one here ? What we do is six
06:25 and three is we have to go six divided by
06:27 three . So we're going to go 3200 divided by
06:30 customers . 3200 divided by cause 23 equals calculator .
06:42 3200 provided by 23 Cause who ? That doesn't look
06:51 very good . Better hit eagle . That's much better
06:56 . 3476 34 Soon six millimeters . Okay , so
07:08 that's going to be the rifle leaf . Just we
07:11 have 3.5 million . Okay , that's all pretty good
07:14 . Last thing which we can also do here is
07:16 we can work out this little angle up here and
07:19 I'll show you quickly how to do that . Just
07:21 a bit of information . So This angle here is
07:24 90°. . This angle here , 23°. . All angles
07:30 in a triangle add up to 100 80 degrees .
07:34 So 90 plus 123 . 130 . We take that
07:39 away from 180 we get the answer for 67°. .
07:43 This angle up here is going to be 67° anyway
07:47 . That's where trigonometry can be used in the real
07:49 world . And that's an example . Hope helps you
07:52 understand trigonometry that little bit better . Okay , we'll
07:55 see you next time . Bye .
