Non Right Angled Trigonometry
+ Area of Sectors
Thursday 28th May · 11:30am - 1:00pm · Live Online · Small Group
These are the topics students find hardest to self-teach because knowing the formula isn't enough. You need to know which rule to use and when. That's exactly what this session focuses on. By the end, your child will be able to identify the right method from the diagram and set up the calculation correctly.
What You'll Cover
Non Right Angled Trigonometry
- Sine Rule (finding sides and angles)
- Cosine Rule (finding sides and angles)
- Area of a triangle using ½ab sinC
- Deciding which rule to use
- Multi-step and bearing problems
Area of Sectors
- Arc length formula
- Area of a sector formula
- Perimeter of a sector
- Sectors in composite shapes
- Exact value answers involving π
How It Works
Join the session
Online via the link sent after booking. Device, pen, paper and scientific calculator needed.
Topic 1: Non Right Angled Trig (45 mins)
Sine Rule, Cosine Rule and area formula. Focus on choosing the right method from context.
5-minute break
Short break between topics.
Topic 2: Area of Sectors (40 mins)
Both formulas with exam-style practice. Composite shape questions included.
Who This Is For
Good Fit
- Year 10 or 11 Higher students
- Paper 1 already sat
- Sine and Cosine Rule feel confusing
- Wants to tackle higher-mark geometry questions
Might Suit Better
- Students who need to consolidate basic SOHCAHTOA first - this session assumes right-angled trig is already solid
- Students needing ongoing support - view tuition packages
