The six main trigonometric functions are

sin(x)=opposite/hypotenuse

cos(x)=adjacent/hypotenuse

tan(x)=opposite/adjacent

csc(x)=hypotenuse/opposite

cot(x)=adjacent/opposite

sec(x)=hypotenuse/adjacent

Where hypotenuse, opposite, and adjacent correspond to the three sides of a right triangle and x corresponds to an angle in that right triangle.
