Abstract: Connecting mathematics to the real world in teaching mathematics in schools is an issue that is of interest in research today. This connection helps teachers create motivation, opportunities for them to practice math and such skills as communication and cooperation. With the growing importance of real-world connections in math class, teachers need to be conscious and able to integrate real-world problems into their lectures. In this paper, we study the exploitation of the relationship between mathematics and the real world when teaching the chapter “Trigonometric relations in right triangles” for grade 9.
Keywords: Math, real world, trigonometric relations in right triangles.
