MAT-HS Targeted Standards (G) Concept: Geometry (SRT) Domain: Similarity, Right Triangle, and Trigonometry Cluster: Define trigonometric ratios and solve problems involving right triangles
MAT-HS.G-SRT.08.a Use special right triangles (30°-60°-90° and 45°-45°-90°), trigonometric ratios and the Pythagorean Theorem to solve right triangles in applied problems.
(Mastery of the Pythagorean Theorem is an 8th grade standard.)
