However‚ this “blending hypothesis” did not last long due to the discovery that if this had been true‚ we would end up with a uniform population of individuals. Gregor Mendel‚ a scientist and monk‚ documented a particulate mechanism for inheritance. This was developed before chromosomes were observed under

Finding an Angle in a Right Angled Triangle You can find the Angle from Any Two Sides We can find an unknown angle in a right-angled triangle‚ as long as we know the lengths of two of its sides.  Example A 5ft ladder leans against a wall as shown. What is the angle between the ladder and the wall? (Note: we also solve this on Solving Triangles by Reflection but now we solve it in a more general way.) The answer is to use Sine‚ Cosine or Tangent! But which one to use? We have a special

RIGHT TRIANGLE TRIGONOMETRY The word Trigonometry can be broken into the parts Tri‚ gon‚ and metry‚ which means “Three angle measurement‚” or equivalently “Triangle measurement.” Throughout this unit‚ we will learn new ways of finding missing sides and angles of triangles which we would be unable to find using the Pythagorean Theorem alone. The basic trigonometric theorems and definitions will be found in this portion of the text‚ along with a few examples‚ but the reader will frequently
