Trigonometry is useful in the real world although many might not see it, it allows us
solve problems involving angles and distances. Trigonometry can be applied in many different
fields such as architecture and engineering, where it is used to calculate structural angles and
lengths. Sine, cosine, and tangent are three trigonometric functions that are related to angles in a
right triangle. In a right triangle, the sine is the ratio of the length of the opposite side and angle
to the length of the hypotenuse. Cosine is the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to and the
angle to the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle. Tangent is the ratio of the length of the
side opposite the angle to the length of the side adjacent to the angle in a right triangle. These
three functions are tied together and can be used to determine the missing side lengths or angles
in a right triangle. They’re fundamental in trigonometry and have various applications in fields
like physics, engineering, and navigation. Furthermore, resolving the two problems, "blood
pressure modeling" and "distance between two cities," contributes to Barry University's mission
and core commitments. These are everyday life things that apply to us as students and Barry's
supports the idea that learning leads to knowledge and truth, reflection leads to informed action
and commitment to social justice leads to colaborative service. We expand our knowledge on
