Is this statement true or false The sine of an angle in a right triangle is the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to that angle to the length of the hypotenuse.?
False because sine ratio = opposite/hypotenuse
The tangent of an angle equals the ratio of the what?
in a right trianlge the tangent is the ratio of Opposite/Adjacentcosine is Adjacent/Hypotenusesine is Opposite/Hypotenuse
How do you calculate the base of the right triangle given the height and the opposite angle?
By using the tangent ratio of: opposite/tangent angle = adjacent which is the base
What is the tangent of a triangle?
In that triangle, one of the angles must be a right angle, and another one of the angles must be marked with or the measurement of the angle. Tangent is the ratio of opposite side over adjacent side. The opposite and adjacent sides are determined by the position of the marked angle.
What ratio of the opposite leg length to the hypotenuse length?
its the cosine.. thanks to the dude up there i got it wrong and that was my answer for 4.1.3.
What are facts about right triangles?
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.
Is this statement true or false The sine of an angle in a right triangle is the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to that angle to the length of the hypotenuse.?
False because sine ratio = opposite/hypotenuse
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.
What is the ratio of the length of the opposite leg to the length of the adjacent?
It is the tangent ratio.
He tangent of an angle equals the ratio of the?
opposite/ adjacent
What is the ratio of the tangent of an angle?
Opposite divided by adjacent
Is the sine ratio of an angle is the opposite side over the adjacent side?
no it is angle opposite to tita/ hypotenouse
What is the trig ratio which relates the opposite to the adjacent of a triangle?
the tangent of an angle is opposite over adjacent side of triangle
What is the ratio that defines the cosine of an acute angle of the right angle?
It is the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to that of the hypotenuse.
Is the ratio of the length of the opposite leg to the length of the adjacent leg?
Suppose ABC is a triangle. There is nothing in the question that requires the triangle to be right angled. Suppose AB is the side opposite to angle C and BC is a side adjacent to angle C. Then AB/BC = sin(C)/sin(A)
The sine ratio of an angle is the opposite side over the adjacent side?
Opposite over hypotenuse. Sin=opposite/hypotenuse cos=adjacent/hypotenuse tan=opposite/adjacent
The tangent of an angle equals the ratio of the what?
in a right trianlge the tangent is the ratio of Opposite/Adjacentcosine is Adjacent/Hypotenusesine is Opposite/Hypotenuse
