Trigonometry: Ratios, Solving Sides, and Solving Angles

Front

What is the Sine Ratio?

Back

The Sine Ratio is defined as the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle. It is expressed as: Sine(θ) = Opposite/Hypotenuse.

Front

What is the Cosine Ratio?

Back

The Cosine Ratio is defined as the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle. It is expressed as: Cosine(θ) = Adjacent/Hypotenuse.

Front

What is the Tangent Ratio?

Back

The Tangent Ratio is defined as the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the adjacent side in a right triangle. It is expressed as: Tangent(θ) = Opposite/Adjacent.

What is the formula to find an angle using the Sine Ratio?

Back

To find an angle using the Sine Ratio, use the formula: θ = arcsin(Opposite/Hypotenuse).

Front

What is the formula to find an angle using the Cosine Ratio?

Back

To find an angle using the Cosine Ratio, use the formula: θ = arccos(Adjacent/Hypotenuse).
