Human: Finding Height with Ease. With Trigonometry and a Hypsometer, Approximating Height is a Breeze. Print Settings Printer: QIDI Tech Rafts: Yes Supports: Yes Resolution: .2-.3mm Infill: 10% Notes: Printing a raft significantly increases post-cleaning on the body section of the Hypsometer. How I Designed This Design The idea and design were inspired by Dr. Brian James and my college Trig 2 class. Overview and Background Overview & Background: You will gain skills related to trigonometry and its functions. Lesson Plan and Activity Lessons/Activity: 1-Lessons on basic trigonometry functions 2-Print, clean, and assemble the Hypsometer 3-Tripod 4-Tape measure 5-Worksheet Project: Hypsometer Project Name: Hypsometer: Approximating Height with Ease. Overview & Background: You will gain skills related to trigonometry and its functions. Objectives: Students would be expected to learn how to approximate heights and slopes using basic trigonometry equations. Audiences: Students in High School grades 10th-12th and college math courses. Subjects: Math, physics, science, and engineering courses. Skills Learned: Pythagorean theorem, Trig functions, and slope. Lessons/Activity: 1-Lessons on basic trigonometry functions 2-Print, clean, and assemble the Hypsometer 3-Tripod 4-Tape measure 5-Worksheet Duration: Project should be able to be completed in one week or less. Preparation: Students need to have had a course on trigonometry and know how to read a tape measure.
