Now, we will return to the problem posed at the beginning of the section. A bicycle ramp is constructed for high-level competition with an angle of
formed by the ramp and the ground. Another ramp is to be constructed half as steep for novice competition. If
for higher-level competition, what is the measurement of the angle for novice competition?
Since the angle for novice competition measures half the steepness of the angle for the high level competition, and
for high competition, we can find
from the right triangle and the Pythagorean theorem so that we can use the half-angle identities. See
[link] .
We see that
We can use the half-angle formula for tangent:
Since
is in the first quadrant, so is
Thus,
We can take the inverse tangent to find the angle:
So the angle of the ramp for novice competition is
Double-angle identities are derived from the sum formulas of the fundamental trigonometric functions: sine, cosine, and tangent. See

Reduction formulas are especially useful in calculus, as they allow us to reduce the power of the trigonometric term. See

Half-angle formulas allow us to find the value of trigonometric functions involving half-angles, whether the original angle is known or not. See

Communication is effective because it allows individuals to share ideas, thoughts, and information with others.
effective communication can lead to improved outcomes in various settings, including personal relationships, business environments, and educational settings. By communicating effectively, individuals can negotiate effectively, solve problems collaboratively, and work towards common goals.
