This Right Triangle Trigonometry Escape Room Activity is a fun, engaging way for students to review everything from the right triangles and trigonometry unit in Geometry. Students work through 6 challenge puzzles covering the Pythagorean Theorem and its converse, special right triangles, similar right triangles and geometric mean, trig ratios, angle of elevation and depression, and the Law of Sines and Law of Cosines, cracking a code with each one.

Each challenge reveals a 3-digit, 4-digit, 4-letter, or 5-letter code. Detailed directions for prepping and assembling the challenges are included, along with a student recording sheet and suggested methods for checking codes. It works great as a review before the unit test, and a prize is recommended for students who successfully crack all the codes!

Topics Included:

• Challenge A: Pythagorean Theorem and Pythagorean Theorem Converse
• Challenge B: Special Right Triangles
• Challenge C: Similar Right Triangles and Geometry Mean
• Challenge D: Trigonometric Ratios, Finding Missing Sides and Angles
• Challenge E: Angle of Elevation and Angle of Depression Applications
• Challenge F: Law of Sines and Law of Cosines

How long does this activity take? The challenge puzzles are independent of each other, so challenges can be removed to save time or differentiate. If using all six challenges, plan to use two class periods or a full block.

I’ve used the individual puzzles from the Right Triangle Trigonometry Unit Review Escape Room in my Trig class, and it’s been a great way to review! I love that I can pick and choose which puzzles to give my students, and it still works perfectly. The escape room format is fun and keeps them engaged while practicing key concepts. Highly recommend for a flexible and interactive review!

This escape room is fantastic! The problems are challenging but very doable. I love how the students must read the directions carefully to decode each part. The instructions to the teacher on how to compile the escape room are clear and easy to follow.

This is an excellent unit review for students to practice right triangles of various types. We used it to prepare for the unit test. Students found it challenging but enjoyed it.
