In a right triangle the ratio of adjacent side to hypotenuse?
is called the cosine ratio
What is the cosine ratio?
In a specific angle for a right triangle the cosine ratio is the ratio between the lengths of the adjacent side (side touching the angle) and the hypotenuse (longest side).
How do you find the cosine and the sine?
Sine= Opposite/ Hypotenuse Cosine= Adjacent/ Hypotenuse
How do you find the hypotenuse with a cosine and or sine?
For a right angle triangle:- hypotenuse = adjacent/cosine or hypotenuse = opposite/sine
What is the form for finding cosine in fraction form?
Cosine = Adjacent/hypotenuse
What is the equation for cosine?
cos = adjacent / hypotenuse
What is the ratio of adjacent to hypotenuse?
It is the cosine ratio.
What is a cosine ratio?
In a right angle triangle it is: cosine ratio = adjacent/hypotenuse
How do you use cosine?
cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse. It can be used as other trig functions can.
The cosine of an angle equals the ratio of the?
adjacent/hypotenuse
How is the cosine rule derived?
the cosine rule is derived from the division of the adjacent side & hypotenuse
The ratio of the adjacent and hypotenuse sides of a right triangle?
cosine
What is the ratio of the adjacent and hypotenuse sides of a right triangle?
That's the cosine of the angle to which the 'adjacent' side is adjacent.
What is the ratio of the cosine of an angle?
Fora right angle triangle: cosine angle = adjacent/hypotenuse
