Which angle length does cosine give you?

Sides have lenght, angles do not. Cosine is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse. Cosine can be used to find either of these sides if the other is known.


Can you use the tangent ratio to find the length of the hypotenuse?

No; the tangent ratio only deals with the lengths of the opposite side and adjacent side. You can square the two sides and add them together, then find the square root of the sum to find the length of the hypotenuse.

Well this could be the slope of the hypotenuse. Or it could be the tangent of the angle adjacent to one of the sides [tan Θ = opposite/adjacent ]
