Rugby Conversion Kicks and the Application of Right-Angled Trigonometry
From the sporting context of a rugby player attempting a conversion kick comes an application of right-angled trigonometry. The question “where to kick from?” leads to the consideration of how an angle of view changes as distances change and ultimately …

The wind in your sails (ClassPad)
This is a replacement unit to facilitate the teaching and learning of right-angle triangle trigonometry. The students begin by ‘learning’ how to sail a boat and then engage with various aspects of sailing and as a result learn about the fundamental trigonometric ratios. The unit comes with pre-made ClassPad Geometry files that enable the students to sail virtual boats, collect data on their sailing and through this learn about trigonometric ratios. The unit includes traditional learning and problems as well as some not so traditional learning.
