Course Description:
Pipefitters use many kinds of simple and advanced mathematics to calculate lengths, volumes and weights. The applied mathematics involved includes geometry, ratios, trigonometry, and algebra. The students will learn to calculate takeouts, lay perform special angle cuts, and determine the different sides of a figure or an offset.

Student Learning Outcomes:

Understand and utilize trade terms adjacent side, cosine, hypotenuse, opposite side, ratio, reference angle, sine, and tangent
Correctly use tables and equivalents
Perform right angle trigonometry
Correctly calculate takeouts using trigonometry
