What does SOH CAH TOA stand for?

Back

SOH CAH TOA is a mnemonic for remembering the definitions of sine, cosine, and tangent in a right triangle: SOH = Sine = Opposite/Hypotenuse, CAH = Cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse, TOA = Tangent = Opposite/Adjacent.

What is the Pythagorean theorem?

Back

The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides (a and b): c² = a² + b².

If you know two sides of a right triangle, how can you find the third side?

Back

You can use the Pythagorean theorem: c² = a² + b², where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the other two sides.
