Finding Missing Sides

Front

What is the opposite side in a right triangle with respect to angle C?

Back

The side opposite to angle C is called the opposite side.

Front

What is the length of side w if it is given that w = 18.0 cm?

Back

The length of side w is 18.0 cm.

Front

If x is solved to be 9.9, what is the rounded value of x to the nearest tenth?

Back

The rounded value of x to the nearest tenth is 9.9.

Front

What is the sine ratio in a right triangle?

Back

The sine ratio is the ratio of the length of the opposite leg to the length of the hypotenuse.

Front

What is the value of cos(60°)?

Back

The value of cos(60°) is 1/2.

Front

Define adjacent side in a right triangle.

Back

The adjacent side is the side next to the angle of interest, excluding the hypotenuse.

Front

What is the hypotenuse in a right triangle?

Back

The hypotenuse is the longest side of a right triangle, opposite the right angle.

Front

What is the tangent ratio in a right triangle?

Back

The tangent ratio is the ratio of the length of the opposite leg to the length of the adjacent leg.

Front

How do you find the length of a side in a right triangle using the Pythagorean theorem?

Back

The Pythagorean theorem states that a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse.

Front

What is the formula for finding the sine of an angle?

Back

Sine of an angle = Opposite side / Hypotenuse.
