Trigonometry in Action - Building a Sundial
by Deepak Arora
Students from the Trigonometry class can construct the Sundial and see the Experimental application of Trigonometry. Student will not just delve into the trigonometry, but they will also see the historical examples of sundials, and how the mathematicians constructed sundial in 1500 BCE. The students will apply the trigonometric ratios and calculations to find the angle for the angle of latitude. Material will be provided and will be tested at the end of the construction.
