What can you say about the sides of a triangle opposite the largest angle?
The side of a triangle opposite the largest angle is the side of greatest length. It is also known as the Hypotenuse.
In a triangle the angle with the greatest measure is always opposite the?
The longest side
What ratio relates the length of the leg opposite the angle in question to the length of the leg adjacent to the angle?
This ratio is the tangent of the angle.If the triangle is a right angled triangle and the angle in question is not the right angle, then it is the tangent of the angle in question.
In a right triangle the of an angle is the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the adjacent side.?
Yes because tangent = opposite/adjacent
What can be the ratio of the length of the longer leg of a 30-60-90 triangle?
the ratios in such a triangle are 1:2:sqrt(3) so the longest length is opposite the 90 degree angle and is twice as large as the length opposite the 30 degree angle
What can you say about the sides of a triangle opposite the largest angle?
The side of a triangle opposite the largest angle is the side of greatest length. It is also known as the Hypotenuse.
What is the ratios function of sin?
The sine of an angle in a right triangle is the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the hypotenuse.In terms of ratios, the sine of an angle is defined, in a right angled triangle, as the ratio of lengths of the opposite side to the hypotenuse.
The longest side of a triangle is always opposite the angle with the measure?
angle with the greatest measure
Is it true the sine ratio relates the length of the leg the angle that is in question to the length of the hypotenuse?
Yes... opposite an angle of a right triangle to the length of the triangle's hypotenuse.
If The longest side of a triangle is always opposite the .?
The longest side of a triangle is always opposite its largest angle
In a right triangle the ratio of the length of the side opposite an acute angle to the length of the hypotenuse?
sin θ : 1 = the length of opposite side to angle θ : the length of the hypotenuse
In a scalene triangle the longest side is opposite the angle with the largest measure true of false?
True. In any triangle, the longest side is always opposite the largest angle; the shortest side is always opposite the shortest angle; and the middle length side is always opposite the middle size angle. In an isosceles triangle, there is no middle length side; and the two sides of equal length are opposite the angles of equal size. In an equilateral triangle, all sides are the same length, as are all the angles.
In a triangle the angle with the greatest measure is always opposite what?
The longest side
In a triangle the angle with the greatest measure is always opposite the?
The longest side
If you divide length of the opposite side of an angle in a right triangle by the length of the hypotenuse what value do you get?
You get the sine of the angle. For a right triangle: sin (x) = opposite/hypotenuse cos (x) = adj./hypotenuse tan (x) = opposite/adj
What ratio relates the length of the leg opposite the angle in question to the length of the leg adjacent to the angle?
This ratio is the tangent of the angle.If the triangle is a right angled triangle and the angle in question is not the right angle, then it is the tangent of the angle in question.
In a right triangle the sine of any angle is?
The longest side of the right angles triangle is called the hypotenuse. Divide the length of the side opposite the chosen angle by the length of the hypotenuse. This is the Sine of the angle.
