Mini Golf is a game filled with geometry. It is all about angles and forming triangles to get the best shot. This week’s project will be about be applying your knowledge of trigonometry to find the best path for each hole in the mini golf course.
Choose ONE easy and ONE Medium or Challenging golf course hole from the choices below. Then find the distance the golf ball must travel to reach the hole and find the angles of the triangles used to find the distance.
Double click on each golf course hole and table in order to show ALL work.
Hole 1 – Easy
Hole 2 – Easy
Hole 3 – Medium
Hole 4 – Medium
Hole 5 – Challenging
Hole 6 – Challenging
