Yes.
Not always. You could form a kite. That means that the two adjacent sides would be congruent, not the two opposite sides.
If you mean 'sohcahtoa' then it is a memory aid for working out the properties of right angle triangles as follows:- Sine = opposite/hypotenuse Cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse Tangent = opposite/adjacent
The cosine of an angle is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse only when the angle is in a right triangle. (Otherwise, how would you know which side is the "hypotenuse" ?)
an adjacent corresponding angle is an angle which is adjacent to a particular angle as well as corresponding.
Sin= Opposite/Hypotenuse Cos= Adjacent/Hypotenuse Tan= Opposite/Adjacent

prove any two adjacent triangles as congruent
In trigonometry, when we look at right triangles, the cosine is the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the length of the hypotenuse.
you use the the 3 trigonometry functions , sin=opposite divided by hypotenuse cos=adjacent divided by hypotenuse tan=opposite divided by adjacent these are used to work out angles and side lengths in right angle triangles only!!! sine,cosine,tangent :)

Opposite over hypotenuse. Sin=opposite/hypotenuse cos=adjacent/hypotenuse tan=opposite/adjacent
The opposite side of an adjacent is the hypotenuse. Sin(q) = Opposite / Hypotenuse Cos(q) = Adjacent / Hypotenuse Tan(q) = Opposite / Adjacent Reference: http://easycalculation.com/trigonometry/triangle-angles.php
The ratio of the length of the side opposite a given angle to the hypotenuse is the sine of that angle.The ratio of the length of the side adjacent to a given angle to the hypotenuse is the cosine of that angle.The ratio of the length of the side opposite a given angle to the side adjacent to that angle is the tangent of that angle.
Nearly! The cosine is the adjacent side (ie not the opposite side) divided by the hypotenuse.
