Identify Opposite Adjacent Hypotenuse

Identifying Sides!

You can't do trig if you can't define these terms:

Hypotenuse: Doesn't touch (across from) the right angle

Opposite: Doesn't touch (across from) the reference angle

Adjacent: Touches both the right angle and the reference angle

Formula:

P = sum of all the sides

(add all the side lengths)

Perimeter: Distance around the outside

Formula:

A = 1/2(Base)*(Height)

or

A = bh/2

Area: The amount of space inside a shape
